Really, it was pretty funny

Rating: 6/10 (21 June 2008)

This movie was just what it promised to be: a send-up of boomer narcissism, and it hit nearly every note. True, many of the jokes were puerile, but that was just the point: in our overly "pc" and self-absorbed "boomeritis," we repress our "animality" as if it did not exist, making us a truly a a stick-up-your-ass culture. Myers and co. skewered our new age self-obsession and self-deludedness perfectly. I have to believe that this movie was over (or under) the heads of a lot of the reviewers here. If you have not been exposed to Deepak Chopra and the new age philosophy, you will not get the total send-up that this film offers.
