Great - for Kids

Rating: 4/10 (16 October 2006)

My kids would have loved it - I find humor in almost everything and this movie made me laugh ONCE. Wasn't impressed with the screenplay of Jack Black or the lack of details for his character and the rest of the movie. Boring....
The movie has two story lines that intertwine, one affecting the other. I appreciate the idea, but the execution was poor. Being able to relate to any of the characters was extremely difficult, as they were either too shallow or overacted.
Jack Black should stick to adult comedy or reduce himself to doing voices for cartoon characters. I doubt my children will find a hero in an overweight comedian with a poor Mexican accent.
