Jerry (Ryan Reynolds) is that chipper guy clocking the nine-to-five at a bathtub factory, with the offbeat charm of anyone who could use a few friends. With the help of his court-appointed psychiatrist, he pursues his office crush (Gemma Arterton). However, the relationship takes a sudden, murderous turn after she stands him up for a date. Guided by his evil talking cat and benevolent talking dog, Jerry must decide whether to keep striving for normalcy, or indulge in a much more sinister path. Written by

Goofs
When Jerry talks to Fiona after he put her head in the refrigerator, a gap can clearly be seen next to Fiona's neck. This is most likely the hole where the actress stuck her head through.

Ryan Reynolds plays a man who has the tendencies of a serial killer, but is trying to resist the urge, but looses it when his work crush Fiona, played by Gemma Arterton, stands him up sending him down that path.
It's a black comedy of the darkest kind as we get to see the inside of a mad man's head and it's pretty disturbing.
It's Pretty funny as well. Ryan Reynolds hears voices in his head which he projects through his Cat and Dog. It's a pretty sick story, made sicker by how colorful the whole film is. It almost feels like a Broadway musical without any music.
Reynolds did a great job of playing a psychopath. His comedic timing worked well in this Dark comedy. his supporting cast of Arterton, Anna Kendrick and Jaki Weaver were great as well.
I recommend seeing it. it's laugh out loud funny.
