Has Anyone Seen The Trailers For This Film?

It's like Birth of a Nation without the production values

I can't see where the $5 million went

It's done on a green screen and filled with white "actors"

I use quotes because the people simply cannot act.

The ones who should be offended by this piece of crap are amateur film makers around the world

And also those guys that make those lego movies

This thing is soooooooo bad that I now have to watch a Pauly Shore movie to remind me what real cinema is

I can't imagine where they were planning on screening this

There SHOULD be rioting in the streets, for the production values alone.
Nobody would make a piece of shit like that other than as a provocation.
I can't imagine sitting through 2 hours of that, without putting a bullet in my brain.

Razzie!!!

Is it the Obama 2016 movie, or the Terry Jones film that provoked religious fanatics to riot in Egypt, or something else?

Christmas Story Part 2?

$50,000 to make the movie, and the rest was spread around to certain shills to make sure the local populace got red-hot howling mad at the appointed time...

Somewhere in Hollywood a waiter/actor just dropped a tray of iced teas as the bar TV blaring FoxNews displayed their still photo from the film and they realized that several million Muslims are not too pleased.

It's like a very, very bad student film by freshmen and sophomores taking Visual Arts as a minor.
