Just not that funny

Rating: 4/10 (24 August 2013)

I was really looking forward to seeing this after the 7.2 rating on IMDb, and also being a fan of Horrible Bosses that had both Jason Sudeikis and Jen Anniston. I'm always keen for a quality mindless comedy to have a laugh and not think for a couple of hours, but this just didn't do it. THe script was predictable and seemed forced, the jokes weren't that funny (apart from a few), and the two lead characters were boring and annoying. JS character was just annoying and not funny, and JA character was tired, we've seen it before many times. These guys just going through the motions. The two younger characters were pretty good, but Ed Helms support character I just didn't buy either, mis-cast in my opinion. I did laugh a couple of times early on in the movie but I then left about 2/3 through as it became hard work and i prefer to have that time enjoying some fresh air rather than waiting for the movie to end being all too aware that I was not enjoying it. Wait for the DVD.
