Miller's directing is a mess. This is a film that feels like a comic strip, not a comic book... and certainly not a gritty piece of film noir. The "comedy" is inane and putrid. I turned the film off thirty minutes into the film (the wife and kids fell asleep 15 minutes in) and I have no intention of watching the rest of it ever.
I made it to about the twenty minute mark before I shut it off.
