The movie’s even worse than Eileen suggests. Movies like Old School and Wedding Crashers are comedy masterpieces in comparison to this mess of a movie. The guy with the beard, who is supposed to be the movie’s secret weapon or something, is not funny at all. The bits are exaggerated to the point of being totally unrealistic and just plain stupid. (Yeah, like they really woulda been able to break into Mike Tyson’s estate in the middle of the night. And, right, nobody was even injured after their car smashed into from the side b y an SUV tank driving at full speed.) I thought the only well-written joke in the whole movie was the one about Mapquest.

I went to see this movie without any prior knowledge of it nor reading any reviews.
And I really enjoyed it.
Of course the direction was mediocre, the acting lackluster - but the script (and dialogues - in some places) stood out.
That was the what made this movie enjoyable.
Ed Helms & Zach Galifianakis were good and added to the fun.
Therefore, I would say - you can see this movie - at least once.

I think I would have enjoyed it more if it hadn’t been for all the (over-)hype. I consider it an above average comedy, but was ultimately disappointed because it didn’t keep me laughing throughout, and definitely didn’t live up to its currently inflated IMDb rating placing it between The Wizard of Oz and There Will Be Blood. Zach Galifianakis on the roof was my high point, and it plateaued from there.

I had a similar reaction to this movie. I was getting worried because everyone seems to think this is the funniest thing ever. Parts of it are legitimately funny, parts are obvious, parts are rip offs (if it was a good movie they would be “nods”) to other movies. It’s worth seeing if you don’t have anything else to do.

Meh, it was funny the way Old School was funny:

Makes you laugh the first time around, but after your friends and coworkers repeat the “funny parts” in it ad nauseam for the next week (or 3, depending on how lame your friends are) you’ll never want to watch it again.

Maybe you need to be drunk before watching the movie?

Anyone who gives money to Mike Tyson to appear in public should be.. what’s sufficiently cruel? ..forced to hang out with Mike Tyson?
