Yeah I can see the reviews on that

"The drunken decisions made in the first part of this movie reminded me of BarFly without the talent or direction, but with more fighting for no apparent reason. After the main character hits middle age it become fairly repetitive as most of the action takes place in an office where nothing seems to happen.

Thats right Roger, even the behind closed door stuff seems pretty standard, and the lack of hot chicks with big bazoomba's is a direct contrast to the first 15 minutes of this film.

I did like the one scene where the main character see's a bullet hit a vehicle behind him missing him by less than a foot, but they never really followed up with a vengence angle where the main character tries to hunt down his assailant. However the fact that he used peanut butter for currency to purchase beer and cigarettes was a rare moment of comediatic genius"

Like the second half of this movie I'd give it an average score of 5"
