  • It's a stinker

    Rated - 2.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Sorry folks, if you were expecting madcap hilarity, then stick to the trailer. In fact, the trailers preceeding this film were funnier than the feature. I don't often feel moved enough to review, but this was Disappointing with a captial D. It had so much potential to be a real goodie, but somehow it just didn't work. A combination of bad script, bad acting (surprisingly) bad direction, a general 'budget' feel to it and the story was just weak and cheesy. So much so that we actually wondered whether it was aimed at being deliberately ametuer in line with the theme. But it just wasn't that clever.

    Really folks, I urge you not to waste your time and money on this one, there are much better things on offer and this just won't hit the mark.

  • An intelligent warm film

    Rated - 4.5 stars

    A gentle, warm heart in this film. Not to be deceived by silliness at the beginning. They were carefully calculated to lead you through to a highly intellectual and emotional ending.

  • Nice Film

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    Nice film not really a mad caped comedy a bit slow but you kind of end up feeling for the characters all in all an enjoyable film but not what you expect from Jack Black and this may put some people off even though it shouldn't .

  • This is cruel watching

    An unbeleivable load of tosh. I can't beleive this was actually put out as a film. Is somebody tacking the mick out there because this was too bad to be true. It really is a no star, but not sure if that would register on the site
