Incredibly dry humor.

Rating: 8/10 (25 January 2011)

This was absolutely a joy to watch. Akiva Schaffer mocks the standard storyline of "a hero in making" excellently. The jokes in this movie are mostly completely idiotic. Of course this is something that you need to love, and if you are not a fan of dry and childish humor then this movie will not satisfy you at all. I however loved it and the acting is fine as far as acting goes in comedy.
The movie made me laugh on several occasions, which I can't say about a lot of (comedy) movies. Still, the predictability (even though it is meant to be predictable) is a bit of a buzz kill unfortunately. If it was a little more original it would have scored a 9.
Anyways, great movie and excellent movie-debut by the Lonely Island boys here.
