The Weakest of the Apatow Gang Films

Rating: 4/10 (14 August 2008)

Easily the weakest of the movies from the Apatow gang. Seth Rogen and James Franco both do fine jobs at portraying their characters, but this one just fails in the writing. The movie is actually quite dull, and all but the two main characters are fairly lame. The story is simply not engaging and individual scenes aren't even funny on their own. And what is the deal with Danny McBride?!? He's not the slightest bit funny, but suddenly he's getting all these featured roles. Let's hope he disappears as fast he appeared on the scene.
Maybe it's funny if you watch it while high yourself. But for the rest of us, it's just humorless and boring.
