Gotta say, I'm really getting tired of movies that have an exceptional cast other than the lead actor. If you had one of the other, better actors in this (Bomer, Murphy) as the lead instead of Timberdouche, it might really elevate this movie. The scenes they both had took the trailer to a higher level than anything Justin did there. But of course, they're not "names" like him. Which is really kind of a joke because he's not famous for his acting. He's famous for dancing around on stage and singing like a castrato.
And yeah, he was great in The Social Network, blah blah blah. Like someone else said here, he was really just playing a more *****ey version of himself there. He hasn't been good in anything else, other than the occasional SNL sketch.
