  • Oh No!

    I'm in shock on how hard it was to watch this movie.

    I had to create an account on Fandango just so I could comment on this Movie. I'm a pretty tolerant person. I've only walked out of one Movie before and that was Blair Witch Project. Let me tell you I walked out of this Movie sooner than the Blair Project. I love both of these Actors and can't understand why they would do a movie like this. I'm even embarrased to say I watched this movie.

    Funniest Movie I've Seen in a While

    by

    So, the plot is a little predictable - that much is true with almost any movie these days. Rarely, however, are comedies predictable and still hilarious. The last movie I found absolutely hilarious was "The Hangover." This is the same type. Great acting for what it is! Comedy comes out of NOWHERE for most of the movie which is the best part in my opinion. This is a great movie for anyone who works 8-5 and just needs to RELAX and LAUGH and start the weekend right. Take your coworkers or friends and go enjoy the night. I might even pay to see this again in theaters. What a great feeling when you laugh so hard you can't look up at the screen anymore because you're crouching in the fetal position. You haven't heard these jokes before and you'll be happy you did; you'll be trying to remember them all the way home. Enjoy!

  • Oh No!

    Garbage

    Did the actors do this movie for free? The actors must have really needed the money to make a trashy movie like this!!!
