I'm kinda disappointed with how this movie turned out. Some very good actors and I'm a big Owen Wilson fan, but I was NEVER laughing out loud. Through the whole movie!! There were some 'sorta- funny' parts, but nothing too great. It was a cute story, but there were too many plot lines!! All the funny jokes, had been shown over and over again during the previews and now we're just old and stale. Other than that, the other jokes weren't very funny. I am not pleasantly surprised at all! and I must say that the critics were dead on with this one. Although, I could be exaggerating a bit. After all, I just spent a lot of money seeing it in theaters. I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more, had I rented it. Once again, my expectations ruin the movie for me. I just thought this movie had SO much potential and great actors and they could have done so much more with the plot lines and the over all script and the jokes. Not too say I can't take the odd sex and toilet humor because I can... these ones just weren't very funny!

I can definitely see how you could dislike this movie if you expect it to be something that it's not and then leave the theater feeling disappointed and mislead, as with all movies when you have expectations that aren't met. Although, this movie was exactly what I thought it would be. Quirky and Odd, but still enjoyable to watch. It was well done and quite funny. Maybe not a theater movie, but for sure a cute rent able. From start to finish, there is tons of action and even though it seemed as if it had quite a few endings, the ending were enjoyable and you weren't waiting at the door with your jacket on, about to bolt from the theater with impatience. I can see how you can dislike this movie and how you can like it, all depending on what you go in there expecting to see.

When I walked into to see this movie, I was not looking forward to it in THE LEAST. I was just coming to see it because a friend wanted to and I hadn't been out of the house in a while. So, I expected the worst possible thing. Now it wasn't the worst possible thing and so that is why I think I didn't mind it very much. That is not to say it is that great. If you are expecting something AMAZING, it's not. It's just a pointless chick flick, reusing familiar jokes over and over. Some of these jokes were funny, but very old and worn out. If you are a female under 18 years of age looking for a non-thought provoking movie, than this is your movie!
