The beginning of this film gives you hope that it might turn out interesting and thought-provoking. However, it loses ground about half-way through. Jennifer Aniston proves once again that she is not a serious actress. She fails to engage us in her character, Justine. Even John C. Reilly (usually a very good character actor), who plays Justine's stoner husband, falls flat as he has little to work with. Jake Gyllenhal is alright as Holden, but they take that character too far out. The plot is thin and the filmaker leaves us with unanswered questions that seem rather pointless. The most entertaining parts of this film I found to be the dead-panned announcements over the PA in the discount store where Justine works.
