Good Idea. Bad Execution.

Warning: Spoilers
This movie premise was a good idea, but the execution is the problem that left a lot to be desired. How can a grown adult, that is supposedly internet savvy, be so oblivious and self-centered that they would be so interested in getting a cable TV show, that they would meet a stranger, give them full access to their life, without vetting them in any way?

And then, to compound the idiocy, that stranger behaves in an increasingly unhinged manner, and you still keep bringing them back into your intimate circle, inside your home, like nothing ever happened?

Is fame so important to this man that his safety and well- being doesn't even cross his mind? Did it never occur to him at any point that there might be some resentment and ill will present that would need to be addressed? Nope. He just blithely brings this stranger into his life and the more increasingly unhinged behavior is just ignored.

I wouldn't have turned my back on this man for an instant, and could see the ending coming within the first 15 minutes. When I started the movie, I thought that the half-brothers disappearance was caused by some outside force, but by the end of the introduction to Andy period, I knew what was coming. Thank goodness it only took another 55 minutes to be proven right.

In movies, grown individuals, with no indications of common sense, always take me out of the viewing experience due to all my eye-rolling at their behavior.
