I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I really like that one and The Wackness.
Wait the director who did The Wackness did this Amy Schumer vehicle?
Or did he do this Goldie Hawn vehicle?

He's getting back to his modelling roots. This movie makes me seriously question his acting ability.
i like brad pitt, but have never considered him even a very good actor
He doesn't have any range, but I guess his usual shtick is likeable enough.

I think Moneyball was his best performance.

Snatched was a mixed bag. It started off really promisingly by ripping in to people like Schumer (insufferable, privileged, oblivious white people), then eventually those acidic themes were lost and by the end it was generic and meant nothing. It also felt really cheaply made. Had a few laughs here and there; Ike Barinholtz stole the show.
