I can't remember seeing a more predictable crapfest in recent years. From beginning to end this one is a stinker. I'm glad I have NetFlix and didn't pay $10 to go see this one. It's not even good enough to quote from. The acting though is good. The dialog is bumpy and dumb and the "you know what's going to happen next" bent of the whole movie is offputting. I was hoping while watching this with my wife, that it wasn't just me who was hating it. Thank goodness it wasn't just my jaded ol' self--she hated it too. No awards here folks. It's crap. I wouldn't recommend it to someone I didn't like. The gal that wrote this script needs to have her advance and royalties, if any, taken back. And she needs a good bitchslapping to boot. Two thumbs down--it's all I have.
There are few other movies that have had the effect of boring me to sleep but this was one of the top ones. It is the best cure for insomnia that you will ever find. They should repackage it as that. I never found anything funny or interesting about the movie. Damn. How do they get this stuff to the screen? I have noticed though that if anything is ever "critically acclaimed", that it is almost certainly a loser in my book. I sent it back to Netflix basically unwatched. I think I got through the first 40 minutes or so and just passed out. Sorry...but it sucked. This is almost as bad as About Schmidt or Napoleon Dynamite. Hollywood,...any time you are ready for some fresh ideas...give me a call.
I am shocked that this movie gets such rave reviews. It is funny in places but it is more of a "dumb" funny rather than actually funny. I never really found a plot to the movie. I think it seems like more of a movie that is about high school kids that was done by high school kids. Not sure how this one ever went to production but hey, Hollywood needs help obviously. Hollywood needs some new blood from the likes of this and that gay cowboy movie...sheesh! It seems that there have been a lot of pointless movies made in the past few years...About Schmidt was one, then that damned I Heart Huckabees...geez if I had only known it was this easy to get crap on the screen,...I would have gone to Hollywood years ago and be famous now. Don't see this one. Let it pass.
