hard to watch this movie as a guy

It's awful to watch for a girl too --- after all, the movie is about a maiming injury, which is not to me a topic for lighthearted banter. First of all, did it mention whether his attacker went to prison for mayhem? Plus a huge civil lawsuit filed against the perp as well for disfiguring and harming his victim.

But I really got off the train, so to speak when Barry behaved more as if he'd had a hemhorroidectomy after he discovered his injury. Then there was this issue of a really hateful, foul-mouthed, unstable and abusive girl who claimed to be carrying his child --- his attitude toward her is completely without credibility, to me. He doesn't seem to mind the verbal abuse let alone defend himself... but then look what he has endured without getting into much of a snit. He has such nonexistent self-esteem or boundaries, or whatever the psychobabble is, that he can't even normally defend himself. His "girl" is not going to suddenly morph into a sweetheart for the rest of her life, either. Her sour and vicious personality will re-emerge in time, and then Barry is going to have to divorce this creature and fight her for custody... I love dark comedy but this was not that to me. It's goody-goody, off-target Wonder Bread goofiness with everybody about an inch deep. My two cents.

What's the big deal he lost his balls not his penis.

Definitely hard to watch, even in movies where it's supposed to be funny, it never is funny to me. It always hurts. Lol.
