Swimming with Sharks

more drama than comedy... but very dark

going in to this film i didn't know much other than i love frank whaley (especially in the jummy show, which he also wrote/directed) and kevin spacey. i was hoping for more dark comedy from this movie about the ruthlessness of hollywood, but it was mostly just dramatic shouting scenes, which were great by the way, involving spacey. both lead actors did great. the whole 'torture' scene throughout was kinda convoluted, and has been done before. worth seeing, but nothing really exceptional.going in to this film i didn't know much other than i love frank whaley (especially in the jummy show, which he also wrote/directed) and kevin spacey. i was hoping for more dark comedy from this movie about the ruthlessness of hollywood, but it was mostly just dramatic shouting scenes, which were great by the way, involving spacey. both lead actors did great. the whole 'torture' scene throughout was kinda convoluted, and has been done before. worth seeing, but nothing really exceptional.
