Don't Believe the Hype
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
