Just not that funny.

Rating: 3/10 (15 March 2011)

I'm being really, really generous with 3 stars. I'm afraid that I couldn't tell what the writers were really going for: Slapstick physical, quirky off-the-wall, Snarky David Spade, loser-clueless a la Napoleon Dynamite (or much more skillfully done in "Being There") or something else entirely. Whatever it was they failed. Failed to commit or tried to mix too much or (most likely) weren't talented enough to carry it off. Certainly Andy Samberg wasn't up to whatever the role was supposed to be -- I'd blame the writers partially for that, but he was one of them, so no escape there. Mostly the movie was annoying. There we a couple of times I smiled at an off-the-wall remark, but they were way too few and far between.
