Hilarious in spots, only okay in others

Rating: 5/10 (15 August 2006)

I just finished watching this on DVD and found it very funny in places. It starts out kinda slow, but gathers steam and has some very funny moments. In fact, one scene stands out as the funniest scene I have seen since the finale scene in "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, World" back in the 60's. I absolutely laughed till I hurt!! Without giving it away, it was the waxing scene!! The language is very rough and sex is the pervasive theme of the movie so there is a lot of nudity. You definitely want to keep this one locked away from the kiddies.
Steve Carrell gives a super comic performance and is very believable as the nerdy guy. His buddies are also very good as well.
I would recommend this film, but not for over about 7 bucks.
