2 Laughs the ENTIRE film...

Rating: 1/10 (9 November 2013)

This movie, for me, was the biggest disappointment I've witnessed in a while. I seriously had big problems with falling asleep towards the end.
Now, I want to start off by saying that my bad review isn't due to a lack of appreciation for the more raunchy comedies because I , personally, love the Hangover and pretty much any Will Ferrell flick, but this movie was just altogether bad.
It started off on a good note. There were a few funny parts that led me to chuckle a bit, however after a the James Franco party got started the movie came to a screeching halt.
First of all, Michael Cera was so annoying that I was almost tempted to fast forward in hopes of his promised demise!
Jay's attitude towards everything was quite annoying, but I'll give that lack of enthusiasm about everything to the script. I'm sure it was just written so that we would hate that character's guts even though he's supposed to be their "spirit" guide??
The candid-cam type diary videos held minimal humor, but enough to slide the viewer into the next sequence which I found to be even more downhill than the last.
The entire plot of the movie turned out to center around the biblical Rapture (when God takes CHRISTIANS up to Heaven while the devil is allowed to roam the earth for 7 YEARS until Jesus comes back, defeats him, does the final judgement of everyone that was left behind, and sends all the bad -who took the mark of the beast- people and the evil beings and casts them into the lake of fire for eternity while God's kingdom resides on a new earth). However, they base their movie off of this religious for telling in a way where they essentially insult everyone who dare watch this picture as well as tell people that if (when) this does happen as long as you do one good deed you'll have an express pass up to the pearly gates. No, you don't have to repent for any previous wrongs or even evaluate previous life decisions in hopes for possibly making yourself into a better person. No change whatsoever...
The characters were not easy to like or relate to. The CGI devils were scary (I'll give them that), but not well placed. Their vision of Heaven was just a brighter version of the "Hell on Earth" they just left. The story line was a bit jumpy and at times left me sitting with a blank "WHHHAATTT??" on my face.
The commercial seemed to advertise a completely different movie if I do say so myself. I don't recommend it.
P.S.- you don't have to insert a cuss word every other word in order too add humor. Raunchy humor is funny, but when you overdo the profanity it just comes off as desperate for an "R" rating in order to make it seem more outrageous than it actually is...
