The only reason I even considered seeing a film with a title that begins "The Secret Life of..." is because Ben Stiller is in it, and though he has most certainly partaken in a few bloopers he remains one of my favorite actors of our time. I figured that if the movie turned out to be a farce, I would at least have discovered a film with Ben Stiller in that I Didn't enjoy which would be a new cinematic experience for me.
Now if you read just a few reviews of this movie you're going to hear the word "scenery" mentioned a lot. Let me just clarify by "scenery" I don't mean "rolling hills of green and glistening dew drops on the golden screen" - I.E monotonous visual CODSWALLOP that one may use to describe films like Lord of the Rings or The Sound of Music. I mean "scenery" in the sense of PREPARE TO HAVE A REVOLUTION IN SENSORY PERCEPTION.
You are not buying a ticket to a comedy, or a drama, or by any means a movie that is any way realistic in a reasonable sense of the word. Bear that in mind.
Also bear in mind the bigger the TV you can watch this on the better.
Consequently this is one of the only movies that I would recommend actually paying to see in the movies. OR, if you are really cheap, wait until it becomes available on DVD, find someone with a really big TV, befriend them just long enough to watch it, and then tell them how much you actually hate them, and leave, taking your DVD with you.
