If this movie is to be believed, men know how to have fun and let loose, in fact they need it biologically, and are to be excused when blowing off responsibility. Women on the other hand, are annoying, clingy, humorless, and needy (especially in the middle of sex). That aside, this movie isn't all that funny, relies on stereotypes you've seen a million times before,and the characters are one-dimensional.
Much like 40 Year Old Virgin, this movie reads more like a TV show than a film and suffers from the same problems. It's kind of funny in parts but ends up being a more slice-of-(very distorted)life luke warm dramedy. A few of the very minor characters have some very funny, very short scenes, my favorites being the asian stoner girlfriend and the assistant producer of E!. I think this unrated version is longer than the original but I didn't like this movie enough to bother finding out. If you really want to watch it, I'd look for the short version or not bother at all even. |
