My Response: I saw this film at a screening last night, and I can tell you one thing: skip it. The movie felt like it had no clear purpose, no idea where it was trying to go, and that it needed to be finished. It was more than a little boring, as the person I went with fell asleep. There was some funny parts, but they were few and far between. I think this film is a perfect example of what happens when everyone making a movie goes through the motions at the same time.
