John C Reilly and Jonah Hill should have been comedy gold... what!!!


How did they go wrong and this movie come across as so flat. I'm not sure if they were going for a serious Drama, a comedy, a coming of age story.

It seemed like this movie was all over the place and all the places where I know they wanted it to be funny it failed. Do these guys just not have any chemistry together, or was the director a talentless hack who couldn't make two of the better comedy actors in the past 5 years work together.

Either way avoid this movie, avoid it at all cost, don't fall victim like I did, the best part was when it first started, it went steadily down hill from there.

"a serious Drama, a comedy, a coming of age story."

It wasn't too serious, it wasn't funny, and no one came of age. Whatever they were trying for, it failed all three times.
