Entertainment Weekly gave it an F. They rarely give F's either. Sounds like they didn't get it either. I might wait for this to come out on Blue Ray and get it off netflix.

from the trailer, atleast it seemed as if they were making fun of eachothers characters.

Saw it. There were quite a few laughs but at the same time they weren't big time laughs and they don't stick with you and by the end of the film you're over the joke. Rent it, you aren't missing anything special.

I was waiting for a punch line while watching this movie, and then it was just over.

It's not horrible... it's, I'm not exactly sure what it is.

It tries to be a comedy mostly.

I laughed at Kevin when he had the gun and then said "I'm fucking hungry" and walked off.

Also, the IED part was funny.

I quite enjoyed the movie. I don't know if there was anything to get? It's just a series of good comedy thats..actually funny. Versus the average comedy out nowadays which is equivalent to funniest home videos "man gets hit in balls" style funny.

Stuff like "Too bad it doesn't work out for you" and Ewan going "you mean I can be a jedi?" was great.

By the way, the above was..in the trailer or in the thread. Dunno who was saying shit about spoiler?

The trailer had most of the funny. It felt like pointless nonsense through most of it. The movie was entirely too long and drawn out, and that's a strange thing to say about a 1:33 runtime movie.

I haven't gotten a chance to watch this movie yet since I've just changed over my work schedule to working nights and it's throwing me off pretty badly.

I need to know. Does he kill that fucking goat with his mind, as the trailor would indicate? lol
