Just OK

Rating: 3/10 (2 October 2009)

I heard from "word of mouth" that this was to be a must see, hilarious comedy. It started off really well, and I give it credit for "reversing the process" versus the standard formulaic screenplay "structure". Somewhere in Act II it began to get a bit flat. The caricatures over "characters", the implausibility issues, and most of all THE VULGARITY. To me the movie deserves it's place (albeit, as does the other 99% of comedies and romantic comedies) in the "bin of mediocrity and cheap gimmicks". The reason for the negative review is due to the expectations I had going in. I was expecting something truly remarkable. It was not that. I'm 35, and haven't quite figured out this ever growing paradigm: "vulagarity-is-funny". I couldn't believe there were 5 year old kids in the theater. Guess, I'll stick to my drama's, and sci-fi, and action flicks.
