Viewing Notes

dunno why I held off for so long bc this is a fun movie. Saw the dvd at Goodwill today and almost bought it but found it was on MAX. Crazy amazing ensemble cast and cool location at Lake Tahoe. Was trying to see if anything was recognizable from my trip there not long after this movie came out. Not sure how much was actually shot in Tahoe.

I think Carnahan screened this at Cinepocalypse. Was this or another of his early films. This would’ve been a fun one to see on the big screen. Nice to see serious Ryan Reynolds.
