What a waste of my time!!!
... View MoreIt's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
... View MoreVery good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

... View MoreDetest having Trump as the POTUS, but the show while he was on it was entertaining, his hubris and "colorful" personality played off well in that show. While not a die-hard fan, I used to enjoy watching the show in general whenever I'd catch an episode or so online. So when I heard that a new season was being broadcast, decided to check it on NBC. And boyyyy, it was a snoozer. First off, it's LA, not NY. Second, AS's mumbling monotone and blank personality is painful to watch. Also, it seems to me that he's striving hard to emulate Trump's style, and that in itself is distracting. Perhaps NBC and Mark Burnett could craft a new show on incoming candidates applying to become interns for Trump, 'cause this one, to put it very simply, couldn't be more mediocre and boring.
... View MoreThe entertainment value of Celebrity Apprentice largely depends on the caliber of the "celebrities". That's right, most of the these people, particularity this season, are not celebrities (although not quite as bad as Dancing with the "Stars").Aubrey O'Day thinks she is the most famous of the group--which again doesn't mean much--but I don't know anyone who's heard of her. I did, however, google her Playboy photo: if she didn't raise her arm and two pounds of makeup and coloring had not been applied all around the fake smile, she might have actually looked half decent.Who else? Lisa Lampanelli is an old hag. Like the cat lady, but far uglier, and to be avoided at all costs. Remember the fat girls that got picked on in school? This one never got over it. And unfortunately for Pizza Lampanelli, her comedy routine is outdated and just not that funny anymore compared to Amy Shumer or Whitney Cummings.Arsenio Hall? Passive-aggressive. And grow some cojones, man. Clay Aiken? Obviously no cojones, and will go with the flow, like Penn Jillette.Last season we had the class and mental acumen of John Rich and Marlee Matlin, the creativity of Lil Jon among others, and the comedy of Gary Busey and Meatloaf. This year, not so much.
... View MoreFor the first couple of seasons, I thought The Apprentice was a highly engaging and exciting show. The combination between reality TV and a 16 week job-interview was innovative, and the producers of the show managed to keep the show relevant and not too "out there".The new season 6 is nothing more than a big joke and it has absolutely nothing to do with business - at all. In the earlier seasons they used to put a lot more emphasis on the business-related tasks - now the focus is mostly in the boardroom where the contestants are expected to do EVERYTHING to keep them on the show (that means lying, trash-talking, backstabbing etc.). The boardroom can be entertaining to watch, but it's entertainment at it's low-point - Sometimes you wonder if you are watching a repeat of an old Jerry Springer episode. The tasks on the show are, at most, boring and mostly a showcase for the companies who are dumb enough to pay NBC for the publicity. And what is the deal about half of the contestants living in tents in season 6? That is just plain stupid and has nothing to do with business in real-life. I have absolutely NO respect for any of the contestants this season, they all seem like idiots to me. In earlier seasons at least some of the contestants had a bit of integrity, now it seems like the contestants would kill their own mother to keep them on the show. It also seems like Donald Trump's massive ego becomes bigger and bigger for every season that pass by and to be honest, I can't see why anyone with a common sense would want to work for him. His rationality in the boardroom mostly doesn't make any sense at all and sometimes it seems he just like to trash people for what it's worth.R.I.P The Apprentice. Please NBC, for God's sake, get the show off the air as soon as possible. It's just too embarrassing to watch. The Apprentice was once a great TV-show, but now it's just a big fat joke.
... View MoreSeason after season, the players or characters in this show appear to be people who you'd absolutely love to hate. Is this show rigged to be that or were they chosen for the same? Each episode vilifies one single person specifically and he ends up getting killed off. You enjoy seeing them get screwed although its totally wrong and sick. You enjoy seeing them screwing others, getting screwed themselves, playing dirty, getting it back, escaping and finally getting kicked out by Trump. The amount of tears also seems to be increasing by the season.The rewards which attempt to compensate for past humiliation and suffering are also heavily reduced. In the newer seasons, its like "You get to meet xyx who'll lecture you about uvw"..like who freaking cares? The characters are so hateable, collectively and individually, that you wonder if they're paid actors? The only sane one gets to win.Watch with caution and maintain a conscience. Those are your fellow human beings in the firing line.
