I dont like movies about people I hate.

The rest of the review aside, this was my major problem with the movie as well. I saw it in theatres, so I don't remember if I was on the good or bad side of "middling," but I definitely remember thinking, "Boy, its really hard to invest yourself in a movie when all of the main characters are completely miserable, despicable people."
I actually really enjoy dark movies - Bad Santa is one of the darkest comedies in years, and one of my favorites - but these people were just so loathesome that I think it made the movie hard to enjoy.
