My girlfriend and I went to see this film at a special sneak preview and I must admit, even though I knew it was gonna be pretty stupid, I had high hopes. I'm a big fan of Steve Zahn and Jack Black and so I thought at least they would be good. I was sorely disappointed. This film is one of the worst comedies I've seen in a while. It tries very hard but it just isn't funny, and this is due to the fact that the audience doesn't care about a single character. As a side note, the Neil Diamond sub-plot is completely ridiculous. I don't really know what went wrong with this film, but something definitely did. The writing alternates between predictable and ludicrous. The direction goes no where new, and even the acting, for the most part, seems forced and proves once again that Jason Biggs was a fluke with American Pie. I'm sorry to say this movie sucks all around.
