The Movie Pain and Gain - Hollywood cashing on on true story of torture

Is there ever a time when its acceptable to glorify torture and death?

And even worse, make money of it?

Hollywood sure thinks there is.

Over the weekend, I saw the show 48 hours. One of the stories was called Muscle and Mayhem.

Click here to read the 48 hours true life story.

It was a true story of 2 guys that kidnapped a man and tortured him ruthlessly and horribly for 4 months in a warehouse. The torture was very very gruesome.

They got the guy to sign over all his possessions, which included his house and millions of dollars. The muscle heads moved into the guys house, spent all his money and trashed his life.

Afterwards, they took on a new target. They found a couple worth millions and killed them both brutally. I could not believe how bad this true story was.

But then it got even worse.

I found out that Hollywood could not resist making a movie from the story.

The movie is called Pain & Gain. It has just come out recently. The movie stars Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson. The movie has received very bad reviews, which I am very glad about.

Hollywood has sunk to an all new low!

How is it that we have allowed Hollywood to sink so low as to make money off the pain, torture, and death of others?

The 1st victim of these two muscle heads survived.

We need to stop Hollywood. They are out of control and think they can do anything they want.

The only way that we are going to be able to hold Hollywood accountable for movies like this is to vote with our wallets. We have a lot of power. But we can only have this power when we unite.

If even a small portion of us band together, boycotted this movie, and the actors that played in it (Mark Wahlberg & Dwayne Johnson), Hollywood would pay attention.

If the movie lost millions of dollars in revenue, Hollywood would think twice about doing something like this again.

Hollywood should be donating the proceeds of this movie toward the surviving victim and other victims like him.

So, just how to we do this?

Dont go see this movie. Tell all your friends to not go to see this movie. Send this newsletter to all your friends. And have them send it to all their friends. Ask them to send it to all their friends.

If you want to go the extra mile, you could send petitions to the producer of the movie, the actors that were in the movie & the makers of the movie.

But the best way to get Hollywood's attention is to just not go see the movie.

  1. Nice review Phillip. You won't believe what you are seeing on the big screen to be true, but sadly it all is, which makes the ultimate conclusion that much more rewarding. The bad guys get what they deserve, even if you’re a bit confused why we were rooting for them really.
