disappointing

Rating: 4/10 (17 March 2007)

I'm as broad-minded as the next guy. (I hate when people say that.) But please. A few moments of amusement, but haven't we taken potty humor almost as far as it can go? My only problem is that there's really nothing fresh or new here - just the same clichés repackaged. If you get the Cohens you get bizarre. I get bizarre - I just didn't get this. There was a real opportunity here for some fresh humor. I am only avoiding referencing any lines because I don't want to have a spoiler problem on a movie I don't think anyone could spoil. The writing is a copout, the easy scatological stuff seems to have trumped the obvious opportunity for real satire. This wasn't bad - it just could have been so much better.
Disappointing.
