How did this film get made?

Can someone please explain to me, how this film got made? I found it was unbelievably stupid and filled with dumb dialogue, as well as characters I could feel no emotion towards, as they had no emotions themselves. The only reason I can think of, is that Worthington expressed an interest to the script, but did he actually think it was any good? I just could not take the characters seriously; they just had garbage literally pour out of their mouths whenever they spoke.

Everything was bad in this film. The script, story line, the girlfriend that kept changing her clothes and bickering with the boyfriend when their lives was at stake.
It was just so unbelievably bad because it was so predictable and unbelievable.
It is the kind of films made for morons or American men.

If it harms none, do what thou wilt.

Yep, the mexican clothes changing chick was awful. She might be okay in a porno as long as she didn't have any lines.

Let me see.

The film company got a director, gave him some money, hired some actors, got a film crew and a script!

It's that man again!!

I dont think they got a script.
They skipped that bit and improvised the mind bogglingly stupid plot as they went along

Well, I won't be one of those morons that states 'This is the worst movie ever made', but there are plenty of movies I've tried to watch in my lifetime that I just couldn't get through for one reason or another, and this was one of them. We're all wired differently though, and if you thought it was good, more power to you.

It was in no way the best movie ever made, but I assume by your response that you watched the whole thing? If that's the case, and you stayed tuned into it the entire time, then they must've done something right by your standards!

I watched about half of it, knew it wasn't for me, but I did keep it on the background while I did other things.

I just found it pretty ludicrous, but like I said, to each his own.
