I was enjoying it until the last 40 minutes. Although I was annoyed by the terrible pastiche Kubrick scenes. Trying to think of something nice I want to say about it but struggling. Maybe this was actually terrible. Yes. I think this is bad. I've removed half a star in the time it took to write this. The world shrugged. Also, worst fitness routine ever. No one is getting ripped doing that! Edit: it can have a half star back for Demi Moore. She was great
