Release

The film was initially released under the title Little Fish, Strange Pond and it premiered at the Hollywood Film Festival on October 23, 2009. The film was later retitled Frenemy for its DVD release on December 14, 2010.[2] That release was known for prominently featuring Zack Galifianakis on the cover after his success with The Hangover, though he wasn't even highlighted as a star of the film below Modine and Blue when it was released originally, and only played a small role within it.

Reception

The Austin American-Statesman reviewed the film, noting that the film tried to be too many things at once but was instead "sour incoherence".[3] DVD Talk also reviewed it, writing "As a weird comedy/morality play involving gruesome murder, Frenemy will test your limits of appreciation for clever structure and kegger philosophy, as forcefully as it pushes your buttons with unlikable characters."[4]
