Disappointing, but what did you expect

Rating: 2/10 (13 July 2005)

I went in with low expectations and came out with those expectations fulfilled. This is poor stuff from the tired Owen Wilson comedy school and Vince Vaughan proves why he is making strides in Hollywood with this abject showing. The only redeeming feature is that there are worse films out there which prevent me giving this a 1.
I wonder when I see a trailer for a comedy if the people have chosen the right parts to show to tempt the audience and the trailer to this made it look predictable and irritating (why did I watch it, I watch most things) and these qualities it displayed in abundance. Perhaps my comedy sense does not match with the mainstream American perception of comedy hence our wildly differing views on most of the comedies the USA produces.
See it if you liked Dodgeball and other worn out comedy routines like it, but otherwise, go and watch paint dry.
