There's a GIF that sums up how I feel when I see Max Landis' writing credits on anything...
Chronicle and Superman: American Alien are good though.
Max Landis still getting work really is nepotism at it's worst. Almost everything he does not only gets critically slammed but also bombs at the box office. Chronicle wasn't that good, and I can't think of what else he'd be in anyones good graces for aside from that funny wrestling video.
