Ah. I did see Three Kings, and the Italian Job, both of which I liked in spite of my disdain for Walhberg, but I did not pick up that vibe from those performances. I guess it was a bit like Boogie Nights (which I also liked) and The Happening (which I did not). I really did think it was some kind of Entourage joke... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Like TV only smarter.
