Aimlessly drifting in a flat ocean of mediocrity

Rating: 3/10 (1 June 2010)

My title for this review is an opportunistic use of an obvious cliché. And as such, it completely sums up this movie. It meanders along pointlessly. The characters have nowhere to develop because they're stock Curtis caricatures. The feeble attempt to drum up a plot falls flat because there is absolutely no interaction between the two halves of the film. The jokes are also stock Curtis gags - occasionally amusing, but without a story they would have been better delivered in a stand-up routine.
All in all, an ill-conceived plot poorly executed relying on the charm and wit of some talented comedians to carry something that should never have taken up over two hours of celluloid. Classic Curtis.
