The Factory is a 2012 American crime thriller film directed by Morgan O’Neill and starring John Cusack… In the film, Cusack plays a Buffalo, New York cop who has been chasing a serial kidnapper who abducts young women.
…
The Factory was scheduled to be released on December 19, 2011, but it was never theatrically released by Dark Castle Entertainment via Warner Bros. The company then considered a DVD release for the third quarter of 2012, but the film was finally released on February 19, 2013.[2] …
Rohit Rao of DVD Talk rated it 2.5/5 stars and called it “a cookie cutter thriller” with a “supremely dumb, bone-headed twist”.[5] Patrick Bromley of DVD Verdict wrote, “The movie only gets sillier and stupider as it goes along, leading to a climax that’s utterly ridiculous and abandons any goodwill the movie might have built up to that point.”[6] Scott Weinberg of Fearnet wrote, “The Factory is composed of seven or eight other films you’ve already seen before. And not composed especially well.”[7]

If you think of this as a bad movie, then you can say well it wasn’t THAT bad… and you can pick out a few good points. Like John Cusak is a decent actor and the others don’t do that bad a job… but really this is just a slightly edgier version of the kind of movie you’d see on the Lifetime channel.
I’ve watched some bad movies just because I like John Cusack and he’s in them. War, Inc. comes to mind. I wanted to like it, and Marisa Tomei’s great, but that movie was truly awful. Haven’t seen The Factory but it gives me the same vibes lol. Disappointment
