I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
