comes up short (hehe)....

Rating: 3/10 (15 December 2006)

Funny what packs the crowds in today, with this box-office hit another head-scratcher. Put four guys in a roundtable, have them talk like one-gear hormonal high schoolers, and ka-ching! Endless references to vaginas, breasts, conquests, along with F-words tossed in every other line of dialogue, and you have this dead excuse for a comedy. I'm not a prude by any means, but when jokes aren't mixed into the language, it looks more desperate than anything else. A bit of steam is picked up around the speed-dating montage, but not nearly enough to give this any life. Heavily populated by unrealistic characters and ridiculous outcomes, it was trial to sit through the whole thing. Sure, credibility is stretched in movies, but when every girl's a slut, employees are allowed to smash flouressent lights, videotape their butts, and get into car accidents with no repercussions, you only yell at the screen instead of laugh at it. Close it out with a stupid and forced musical number, and you can dive for the remote and end your misery.
