trying too hard!!

Rating: 3/10 (6 August 2006)

Would someone please tell me what all they hype was about?? This was the worst will ferrell movie of all time! First of all, let me say that i am a huge will ferrell fan. I loved him on snl, old school and other movies he's been in. There were a couple of funny parts in the movie, but overall, they were trying way too hard to be funny and it just wasn't happening. Some of the comedy would have been funny it they knew when to stop with the joke, rather than keep going on and on with it. (the baby Jesus jokes, kissing the french guy, the kids' back talking). Those things did have the potential to be funny, if they had not ran them into the ground. Warning.... This is definitely not a movie for anyone over twenty years old.
