Absolute garbage....

7.1? More like 2.1.
I watched the first 12 minutes and it was Not. Funny. Just embarrassingly bad.

I'm with you. I gaped in disbelief, suffered through the first 10 minutes or so, fast-forwarded for a few more minutes, then gave up on it. Incredibly poor in every aspect: terrible acting, no story, and no laughs. There's gotta be a story behind the high rating here - dumb stoners? paid shills? different socio-cultural concepts of "humor" - but I have wasted too much of my life on this movie already to bother to find out.

Wow, I can't believe it. Two actual dumbasses bashing a movie they only watched the first 10 to 12 minutes of and judged the rest based off of that calling others who actually watched the entire film and enjoyed "dumbasses".

You guys couldn't be a better example of stupidity in America.

I was kinda wondering why a person would stop at the '12 minute' mark...

Wait a minute... who am I here?

Twelve minutes is actually the golden ratio for comedy. If you don't crack a smile by twelve minutes in, you're too smart for it (it's actually 11:52, but for brevity's sake we just round up).

Too smart for it? You sure comedy works like that?

I'm pretty sure you're confusing arrogance with intelligence.

Lol - I just used a fixed amount of time and applied it as a ratio to "comedy" - you then took that seriously ... that's on you

What? Best cop movie ever. You didn't like the first 12 minutes maybe you find anchorman 2 funnier.

The sad part is that the best part of the movie, are the first 12 minutes... Totally unfunny garbage!
