This movie set out to do this that it couldn't achieve. I don't think it was the fault of James. Unfortunately, he took a bunch of really shallow wannabe starlets out on a spiritual journey to his father's ranch in Texas. The people he took with them were incapable of setting aside their needs to help a friend do the things he wanted to do. I would actually venture to say this movie is a perfect example of how children who have been neglected by a parent(s) reenact that neglect in adult relationships. The main character, James, brought childish friends to support him in ways they most definitely were unprepared- at least that is how it seemed, but then something changes and your back I the psychological thriller. So, for a 2 AM and "I can't sleep" movie it is not bad and I can't really agree with the waste of time review. Yet, do not expect much.
