That's the one.

GREAT MOVIE!!!

A+++++++++ and some as stated here...

HOWEVER...I went to Carmike...and THIS is what happened...

About 15-20 minutes LEFT in the movie issue with fat dude and his fat hideous wife behind our seats...

She put her legs up on his lap...having to move them when I sat down from the back of my seat should have been foreseen as a problem...anyway...she puts them up there and he starts RUBBING them...and it was a fast back and forth/up and down...it literally sounded like he was sanding the forking floor...

Jackie said something and they apparently didn't seem to hear it...THEN..I turned around and stared them down...THEN loudly had to explain to them it was ANOYING...dude was clueless...she gave me a sh*tty look and he replies...to her since I had already turned around...'what the f**k did we do?'.

Seriously...if you need to SAND your wife's fornicatin legs...wait till it comes out on DVD...a-holes..

I swear, I get so sick of getting yelled at for nothing. Today's my mom's birthday and I thought I would treat her to a movie. Excuuuuuse me.

I got dragged to this movie but then ended up liking it. It gives hope to all ugly people that alcohol will get you laid with hotties.

Sorry, didn't see this thread earlier.

I rarely see a movie in the theater twice but for this I will make an exception.

Not to ruin the movie, but I heard that the chick from Gray's Anatomy gets her brain eaten by an alien and the guy that knocked her up gets blown up in a nasty battle with Megatron.

I hope this didn't spoil the movie for those that haven't seen it.

just saw this, pretty good. i'd say, B+.

Ugh. B+? You must be harsh on movies. . .or I must be easy on them (especially comedies). A comedy will win me over just about every time. I love to laugh.

I agree and may even give it a slightly lower rating...maybe a B. Better than the average comedy but not a blockbuster.

Too much hype, not enough delivery to merit an A rating. More of a chick flick, in my opinion...which isn't bad, but it kind of takes away from the comedy.

Don't get me wrong...it was a good movie but at no point was I winded from laughing. I mostly just chuckled.

I think I would agree with this rating. Definitely had me laughing, but just not good enough to warrant an "A". Honestly, a lot of the parts of this movie that I thought were the most humorous included the friends of the main (male) character and Paul Rudd's character, but those portions of the movie seemed to be too broken up by the main plot development, which did feel quite like a chick flick.

The scene in the hotel room in Vegas with the chairs was just friggin' hilarious!

Very well done flick.

@ Sankofa: Sported your Lego-Man Tee at Germanfest this weekend. Got lots of second looks.

I think it was really well done--perhaps not uproariously funny, but the way that they captured the awkwardness of the characters was pretty frickin funny
