Lowbrow, crass, sophomoric, yet still entertaining..

Rating: 6/10 (21 March 2015)

Just got back from the theater seeing this movie. Over all it was pretty entertaining, yet kind of let down too. I really wished I chose the other one that had Liam Neeson in it.
It started out pretty well, but like most movies these days they feel they have to push it over the top.
I think they were going for some kind of humorous feel, a bit of a spoof at parts, but it ended up feeling kind dirty and tasteless. It felt like instead of making a more quality story they went for the cheap thrills with a lot of four letter words, violence, and needless sexual overtones.
In one particular scene it was non-stop over the top violent. I don't know what they were going for but everyone in the theater seemed to get tense. We were all wondering what the hell we just saw. Was this supposed to be funny or dramatic?
And in the James Bond films (which this movie tries to spoof at points) the sex scenes are sort of implied, good enough, but this one became weird. Several people, mainly ladies, walked out on the film early.
Over all fairly entertaining, but felt kind of cheapened by attempts to make it too edgy and contemporary..
