So last night I had nothing to do, so I decided to watch a movie iv'e heard about like maybe 2 years ago. Iv'e watched Pain & Gain the movie with Mark Wahllberg, Anthony Mackie and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Here Is what I likde and didn't like.

So the story Is based on a true story, In 1995, schemer Daniel Lugo (Mark Wahlberg) is a recently released convict who served time for Medicare fraud. Sun Gym owner John Mese (Rob Corddry) hires him to increase membership and make the gym more fitness-based. Lugo triples the gym's membership within six weeks and befriends trainer Adrian Doorbal (Anthony Mackie). Doorbal, a bodybuilder, uses steroids, which render him impotent. Lugo soon lusts after the earnings and lifestyle achieved by Victor Kershaw (Tony Shalhoub), a sleazy, new gym member he begins to train who Lugo believes is a crook. Inspired by motivational speaker Johnny Wu (Ken Jeong), Lugo decides to be a "doer" and hatches a plan to extort Kershaw for his assets by kidnapping and torturing him.
Like I said It's a true story, so by watching the movie i'm like Holy Shit this really happened. They are crazy people like that in the world. The Rock's character Is like in love with Jesus and he Is addicted to Cocaine and he goes crazy during the movie and It's just scary. Anthony Mackie's character Is just a big idiot and his character Is still alive in prison. Mark Whalberg's character Is crazy and stupid. Like I said this Is a true story. So by finishing this movie I was really shocked that these events happened IRL (In Real Life).
This was a movie I wanted to end so quickly because It was kind of weird and to much things happening at the same time. Thanks for reading and have a great day :)
