Terrible movie. We couldn't wait for it to end

Rating: 2/10 (2 May 2008)

From others' comments, folks either loved the movie or hated it. I wonder if there is a generational gap. I am 70 and my wife is 66, and we go to a lot of movies. When we were watching it, younger people around us were roaring with laughter at jokes that did not seem funny to us. We couldn't wait for the movie to end. Our daughter and her partner were with us and felt similarly. They are in their mid-30s, and older than the average person who was in the theater. I agree with other comments that the acting was not very good. The sex scenes were hardly a turn-on, but with due respect were probably meant more to be comical. These scenes came across to me as quite flat. Next time I see an IMDb review of a movie with an 8.0 rating, I will definitely read the detailed reviewer's comments before going, which is what we exactly did before seeing iron man this evening.
