Best film i've seen in ages! Granted it's not perfect, but for what it lacks, it certainly makes up for in other areas.

(154)Funny, absorbing a classic
By a customer , 18 May 2013Great dark comedy. Encapsulates everything i hate about modern tv. Which is littered with talentless hacks who are famous for just being famous. My only gripe is that they didn't get away with it in the end.- Was this review helpful to you?

provocative and scarily true
By rachybabes (28 reviews) , 01 May 2013Frighteningly accurate observations of how our world has evolved and not for the better. Leaves you very thoughtful after watching it, Frank is a guy fed up with the cruelty that he sees everyday around him and decides to do something about it. He meets a like minded girl and they begin to solve this problem together. Really well put together and makes you look at yourself.- Was this review helpful to you?

Raising the bar with a bang!
By a customer , 01 May 2013A brilliant film for anyone who has ever looked at TV and thought 'When did the bar drop so low?' I completely sympathised with Frank and loved watching a scenario we've all secretly thought about, at least once.- Was this review helpful to you?

Outstanding and sociologically fascinating
By MissFox (5 reviews) , 27 Apr 2013[Highly rated reviewer]
This film is definitely one of the best films I have ever seen. You know that murder is wrong but you can't help but identify with Frank and Roxy's reasoning. Frank explains his opinions beautifully and the ending is oddly touching. If like many others who have watched this film, are not a fan of 'reality' tv, then I can promise you will love this film, if you like 'reality' tv, move along, you will not have the common sense to appreciate the truly dark but honest message about the dumbing down of society. The sociological and historical referencing is incredible indepth and perceptive. I could write an essay on the brilliance of this movie, it has far more than one level to it. Instead, I urge to to watch and listen closely to what Frank says, the script for him is incredible.- Was this review helpful to you?

Dark comedy
By a customer , 17 Apr 2013Two terrific lead performances from Joel Murray and Tara Lynne Barr - this film pulls no punches. It is dark and funny, indeed it is a very black comedy, but it works as the twosome take their revenge on an uncaring society dominated by pointlessness.- Was this review helpful to you?
