really disappointing

Rating: 2/10 (29 December 2009)

How can a movie sell so many tickets when it has not a single character about whom a viewer cares? I don't get it. Sure, there were a couple of chuckles, but it was a real waste of my time. If you want to leave a theater buzzing with excitement or feeling good or eager to talk about an interesting plot, stay away from this turkey.
Is George Clooney handsome? Yes. He's never looked better. Is Vera Farmiga attractive? Yes. Is Anna Kendrick bouncy? Yes. Do we care about a single one of their characters? No.
A few cheap laughs are not enough to sustain a movie. A movie has to have a heart. This one does not.
