My quick rating - 6,2/10. Jerry (Ryan Reynolds) is a seemingly normal man trying to succeed in his new job at the Milton Bathtub Factory. He lives in a normal apartment—the type you would expect from a young bachelor—with his dog, Bosco, and his cat, Mr. Whiskers. Yet something seems off. As the new guy at work, Jerry is asked to help plan the company picnic, and he meets Fiona (Gemma Arterton), an attractive English girl from accounting. Jerry immediately takes a liking to Fiona and excitedly goes home to tell his pets about her. And surprisingly, they answer. But all this is just the beginning of an insanely bizarre and twisted tale. It is hard to think of Reynolds doing anything but Deadpool these days, but he was in quite a few flix before then. Mostly comedies as this is. Usually more on the stupid humor side though, as this one is a dark one. Reynolds plays an everyday factory worker who hears voices that he projects out of his pets, and they tell him to do things. Don't we all lol. Well, the mundane tasks slowly turn into his head taking him down a trip where serial killers dwell. Quite funny at times and just gets bogged down for a lack of something more than what we get. Still a fun flick as long as severed heads giving you advice doesn't bother you.
