Turns out Andy's problem with the movie isn't necessarily the movie – it's the fans who think that Christian Bale's character isn't actually the worst man possible, but rather someone to be admired. I guess maybe you shouldn't like Huey Lewis and The News?

Along the way, these Texan boys get stuck in a classic dilemma: does the fact that the plot is thin and the characters are thinner keep this movie from being worth a watch? OH WHAT A FEELING!
