3.1, really?


I really dislike Larry the Cable Guy's standup, and I tend to find his schtick annoying, but I have to defend this movie.

Over-hyped actors and movies tend to get inflated scores, and people like Larry get more hatred than they deserve.

To me this seemed like a 5-6 out of 10 film. The writing was fairly decent, most of the jokes worked, and the movie flowed well as a "dumb comedy flick". What kept me from scoring higher was that the bathroom humor was over the top, and Larry's character didn't really evolve much in this movie.

My score might seem high to some, but 3-4 rating films are usually for totally unwatchable movies that had minimal effort put in. This film was made for people who can enjoy the stand-up joke type humor.

I didn't love this dumb movie, but it did make you care about what was happening, and in the end I was entertained by it.
