darqness hits it on the head

with his review. I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing that I wanted to tell these people to go "fock" themselves. I guess it's partly because I grew up being picked on. But, as he states, the characters, except for Dina - the classic 1950's mom - and Greg, are mean. Not just mean, vicious. And, I couldn't understand what he saw in Pam. As others have noted, she seems to be rooting for him to "fail." Only at the end did she stand up for him (sort of). Indeed, she still seems to have feelings for Kevin (especially now that he's loaded).
But Greg is no prize, either, and a rather slimy prize too boot. When he blows up, though understandable, his tantrums come out of nowhere, and when we're supposed to get an idea as to his inner feelings, Ben "I'm No Bobby DeNiro" Stiller gives us blank looks instead. Just as I couldn't understand what Greg saw in Pam, I was just as baffled as to what she saw in him.
