This movie was not funny...at all

Rating: 5/10 (7 August 2008)

I loved Superbad, Knocked Up, and the rest of the movies with Rogen & company, but this movie just wasn't funny. I actually counted to see how many times I laughed during the movie, and came up with about 5-10 times. I really think you have to be just totally under the influence to find this remotely humorous. The dialogue isn't great, the acting is no more than decent, and there is minimal chemistry between Rogen & Franco. I think this movie really exposes Rogen for what he is: a decent actor who needs hilarious people around him (see: Bill Hader, Paul Rudd) to seem funny. His mannerisms aren't funny (see: Will Ferrell), his comments aren't very witty, and everything else about him screams mediocrity.
