If many of the script's circumstances seem a bit too convenient, Mandelberg's direction provides a cavalier "what next?" verve that invites incongruity.
Top CriticLoyalties are tested and Scorsese ripped off until audiences may feel as if they're in a movie deathlock.
A nonsensical, thickly plotted gumbo...
Shooting for stoic, Mr. Levesque only delivers inert. And the plot devolves into a tangle of dithering story lines.
As bloated as its star's pectoral muscles and as lastingly resonant as any random episode of SmackDown.
A scattershot throwback that steals elements from seedy '70s character studies, disreputable '80s vigilante flicks, even street-tough allegories from the '30s, Inside Out also dances to the confidently unhurried beat of its own drum.
Barely workmanlike domestic drama by a lawyer-turned-screenwriter and a TV producer-director, each making their first feature-a vehicle for pro wrestler Triple H as an ex-con.
How about we put our money together and hire someone to write Levesque, Posey and White a script that doesn't feel like a USA Network action show reject?
I have no idea what happened in Inside Out. None.
I can say with only a little irony that Triple H acts Parker Posey off the screen.
Setting the instantaneous zany mood is Rapaport, a Big Easy bottom feeder gangster rambling about bad karma and how 'Jesus died so we could all be assholes.' Then toss in Dern's bad parenting medical maniac, for a truly pickled thriller.

Sometimes the only way out is back in!
AJ (WWE superstar Paul Levesque aka Triple H) has spent the past thirteen years in prison for manslaughter before he is released. Meeting up with his best friend Jack (Michael Rapaport) he is ready to start his life over. So he doesn`t lift an eye brow even when told that Jack married the love of AJ`s life, Claire (Parker Posey) and raised their daughter, Pepper (Juliette Goglia) all this while AJ was laid up in the joint. In fact AJ`s goal now is to make and sell pickles (umm...what?!) but when Jack messes up his plans AJ realizes he has one more thing to do before he can leave his old life behind. Bruce Dern stars as Jack's father, a local crime lord who's looking for some new muscle and has his eye set on AJ. As you no doubt realize, the conflict here is AJ's trying to resist being pulled back into his old life. Do you think he`ll make it?
A little bit disappointing for me as it doesn't even have anything for wrestling fans, like fights or body figure scenes showing off Triple H just some cheesy looking explosions - kaboom!!
"Did you know that profits from cigarette smuggling are a big source of funding for terrorism?" (Yea I too laughed when I heard that mentioned in the film and was like WTH but we all know the side effects of smoking when it comes to your health and about the diseases that smoking can cause. I say we all quit smoking NOW and live longer!!!)
