Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
frank hamill Compared to the original ...this is absolute garbage. This movie is geared for the 13-14 year old that would find this movie funny. This not a put down to 13-14 year old. I would find it funny at 14 too. 90% of all movies are geared to this age group today. Spiderman-superman-wonder woman etc
teresa_dejesus The best thing about this film is that Jerry Stiller and Polly Holiday are in the cast. ***************** **************** ************** ***SPOILER** ***SPOILER* ***SPOILER ********* ****** *** * Stiller plays an infantile man who gets his dream girl without trying. His character is really gross: picks up said dream girl during his honeymoon then stalks her by breaking into her home because "the heart wants what the heart wants." To make him sympathetic, "bitches be crazy" gets repeated throughout the film, and Malin Ackerman, who plays Stiller's wife, is made visually unappealing by giving her a third-degree sunburn, complete with blisters, along with a deviated septum through which she spouts liquid and carne asada at inopportune times. Malin. Ackerman. Even with the make-up and slapstick, she's freaking gorgeous, but this film assigns a woman's worth based on appearance. Consequently, the women you're supposed to hate are telegraphed via visual cues such as preposterous plastic surgery or untrimmed pubic hair. Also, it's unfunny.
pbustamante-35999 A tip for the producers... people who like to laugh don't normally consider watching painful scenes as something conducive to humor. :-)I personally thought that her getting sunburned was an unnecessary part to the whole story and even the inclusion of "another woman" in the whole thing... it would have been really funny on its own to just watch his whole interaction with Lila with him not knowing her well enough and all the quirks that go along with that. Bringing the other girl into the scene and then even the girl at the end of the movie made it more into a "drama" than a comedy and people were at the edge of their seat hoping he would not get caught and squirming when he did and the girls were heartbroken. Not to mention the whole jelly fish scene... ewwww... gross! I literally wanted to leave the theater gagging when I saw that one with that ugly horrible clingy thing hanging from his back knowing how painful it must've been... I don't think anyone hated Ben Stiller's character THAT much to warrant something like that. Sorry...not impressed.
gwnightscream Ben Stiller, Michelle Monaghan, Malin Akerman and Jerry Stiller star in this 2007 comedy remake of the 1972 film. Stiller (Zoolander) plays bachelor, Eddie who hasn't found the right woman yet. Ackerman (Couples Retreat) plays Lila, an attractive woman he soon meets and dates. After 6 weeks, Eddie decides to marry her and they go to Mexico for their honeymoon. Soon, Eddie learns he may have made a mistake when Lila is not whom he expected. Eddie secretly finds romance with another woman, Miranda (Monaghan) who eventually learns he's married. The Farrelly Brothers directed this and previously worked with Stiller in "There's Something About Mary." Stiller's father, Jerry (The King of Queens) naturally plays his on screen father, Doc and Danny McBride (Pineapple Express), Scott Wilson (The Walking Dead) & Polly Holliday (Gremlins) also appear. This is a good comedy with a great cast I recommend.
