every scene with justin long and michael parks was gold. rest sucked
title says it all
shareI wouldn't say they sucked, but they were underdeveloped. It's pretty obvious that Smith had a good idea for a movie but didn't know how to pad it out to feature-length. The flashback structure was nice, but the supporting characters are so sketchy and their investigation so truncated that they distract from the main narrative rather than adding to it.
The scene with Johnny Depp would've made a nice extended cameo, but just goes on too long with that pointless flashback sequence. He was a one-joke character that couldn't really survive that level of exposure.
