  Didn't rock my world...

  Hmmm
  
  This movie isn't getting two stars.

  Slow and Boring
  
  The acting was good, and the story line was ok. But I personally found it a bit slow and boring...

  Very good surprise
  
  Expected a dumb movie and was really surprised by the action (at the beginning a bit slow) and sincere side of the movie. Spent a very good moment.

  Good film with Murphy
  
  I enjoyed the film and I would recommend it. Light hearted comedy and something for all the family.
