Little Fish, Strange Pond (2009)
Mr. Jack and Sweet Stephen cruise aimlessly through the streets of LA speculating about life, death, divine will and the force of power that predetermines their existence. Mr. Jack attempts to illustrate to his sidekick the delicate and natural forces of the universe. Sweet Stephen's superficial charm and bloodsucking lifestyle sends him and Mr. Jack on a voyage that is relentless, engaging, and darkly hilarious.

Strong and Moving!
The first must-see film of the year.
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
One of the worst movies I've seen. Amateurish editing, annoying soundtrack, and gratuitous violence -- used in an attempt to cover up the boredom and pointlessness of the story. Pretentious and shallow filmmaking .This is really torturous to watch. Callum Blue gives a particularly poor performance. Adam Baldwin is a close second worst. Modine's fake pretentious English accent becomes very grating and has no reason. Repetitive backgrounds become jarring. Terrible soundtrack. Just really, really bad.
The name Frenemy provoked a giggle out of a friend when I recommended her this title. Agreed, it seems suggestive of a potential feel-good, teenage, Lindsay Lohan something- or-other. Rather, Frenemy can best be described as a dark and compassionate independent film. Well acted, the characters, while capable of committing acts of depravity of American Psycho proportions, are relatable. Ultimately, this movie is about an overriding, self- sustaining, predetermined balance of good and evil. There is something to be gained each time I watch this movie.In the end, I'm left craving a sequel to see what becomes of Mr. Jack.
I guess you can't blame whomever whomever financed this cheap attempt at art for trying to trick people into paying for it, but everyone should KNOW exactly what they are trying to pull here. Two years after it is released, they take this pig, slap lipstick on it and try to get people to believe it's another funny Zach Galifianakis movie. It's not, he's in maybe 25% of the film, it's pointless, the black humor is not good either, makes little to no sense and just strings together scenes that are supposed to be deep or edgy and leaves you to fill in the rest. DO NOT WATCH IT UNLESS YOU THINK THE ONLY IMPORTANT THING ABOUT A MOVIE IS IF IT HAS GOOD ACTING AND NOTHING ELSE. I'm guessing the actors did it for free and the rest of the budget for this movie was probably about $200. Calling it Frenemy doesn't even make any sense, to give you another hint at how they are trying to trick the viewing public. Anyone who claims to like this is giving it WAY more credit than it is due. I saw it for free and they owe me 75 minutes of my life back.
It's so frustrating ... you rent this movie because Zack is on the cover and you think that this is a fun movie like "The Hangover"and "Due Date".They used the Zack image as a decoy to attract the more hardcore fans just to get more money. This movie is a trap!! Not funny at all! Move away from that! I am very disappointed by Zack agreed to take part in this crap ... Do not watch this. It is a trap from which you will bitterly regret if you fall...I rented this thing after I watched "due date" which was really fun and I just wanted to have more. I love Zack G. and I really expected I could enjoy this film as much as I enjoyed the previous one. But there's no how to compare one thing with the other. Some people may say that they had fun watching this "thing" but I doubt. If regret could kill, I would be dead by now.
