Couldn't watch more than 30mins


Their attitudes (Rudd throws his food to the floor for no reason), poses (Rudd again tries to makes watching him pick up his own food quite tedious and painful) and generic sound effects like breaking glass were all so cringeworthy that I can't see how this garbage has a 6.7/10 on IMDb as it's definitely not worth that much.

If it wasn't for Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler I would've just skipped it but no, I had hopes this was good.

Bro, this movies a spoof

reply

It's a REALLY bad spoof. Napoleon Dynamite was genius compared to this trash.

reply

You clearly don't know what a spoof is. Napoleon Dynamite was satire, this is a spoof. There is a difference even if you aren't aware of what it is.

There is a reason he's acting like that. He's the bratty guy who thinks he's cool because the girls are into him.

Your problem is that you seem to have had no idea what kind of movie you were getting into.

Stick with Meatballs. You'll thank me for it!

I preferred Meatballs. That movie at least had some heart. WHAS was nihilistic garbage.

"What you do is so fascinating, Henry."
"Please, call me Henry."
"Ok. Henry it is."

"I need you to go to the drug store and get me some lube ...for my puuusssy."

"Writing in my Gernal. I write my thoughts in it everyday."

"The phone! Where's the f--cling phone! Ahhhhhhh!"

"I never told anyone this but I can suck my own d--k. And I do it, a lot."

How could you not like this?

6,7 isn't exactly a great score, I don't see why you'd whine about it being "too high"
