It's really difficult to explain how terrible an actor James Franco is. He's awful in bad movies and drags any movie with promise down many levels by being in it. This movie would have been an excellent opportunity for him to showcase his depth and range as an actor. If he had any, which he doesn't. He turns in a very flatline bland performance as usual, and I won't even touch on the hilarious fake accent of his girlfriend, whoever she is. She left no impression on me at all. Actually the movie started out okay, and I thought I might have finally found something he was in that didn't reek to the heavens. Then people started talking and it was game over.
