Saw "Players" last night.

It was better than I thought it would be. Some funny bits, although it was hard to keep up with all the slang terms they made up for various sex acts and ruses they used to try to snag a partner.

I was surprised to see it was the #1 movie on Netflix.

Had a difficult time following it for the first 15 minutes. Maybe the pace, editing, dialogue might have been an issue for me. But after that I enjoyed it when it seemed to level out into a plot line or maybe I just got used to it. Hard to say.
I enjoyed some of the acting and characters. Agree on there being some funny parts.

Where the actors talk so fast, you can hardly understand them. I've noticed it in a couple things I've seen lately. So it's not just me.

in the UK and she had to shut it off and restart it later on. She had the same issue.
She did like it though.
