not that funny

Rating: 5/10 (14 January 2010)

I think I relied too much on IMDb... A nearby Hollywood Video was out of business and everything was on sale. I heard this movie was a brainless funny movie (which is not always my favorite) but was still interested, so I checked the rating in this web: 7.2; seems pretty high for a brainless comedy, so I bought it.
After I watched the movie, it turns out: Wow, it's not brainless at all! but I don't see how it's funny either! The movie really isn't good or funny, instead of comedy it should be a drama, an just-okay drama, the twist ending wasn't so twisty either. Throughout the whole movie, I only smiled, but never bothered to laugh, in fact, the movie was rather sad. I love watching movies, all kinds of movies, and I'm usually easily amused...my point is, I really felt like watching this movie was a waste of time, and I can't even remember when was the last time I felt this way.
I gave 5 because I tried to be reasonable (meaning: at least I finished the movie and it wasn't so bad that I wanted to destroy the DVD, and the movie does have some meanings to it), not just some haters who like to complain about their "valuable hour and a half" and give 1 out of 10.
