OK, so my friend rents this with the intent of us both being drunk and watching an apparently funny film that he has seen and has assured me I will like. On beginning the film, I start to make fun but then I see Ivan Reitman directed the film, the director of Ghostbusters surely can't make a bad film. Now I admit, I laughed a couple scenes. Mainly only at Tom Green and the mouse interacting. The mouse was definetly the best actor in the film.
My question now is WHY? Why do Americans keep spending their hard-earned bacon to watch such trash? Are they so incapable of entertaining themselves that feel the need to watch this flotsam? I am sick and tired of pop-culture teeny-bopper films. We have seen a glut of these in the past couple years.
Now back to my comments on the film. Ivan, if you happen to read this one day, what happened to you man? You go from directing what is possibly the best comedy film ever conceived (Ghostbusters) to a product of the Hollywood factory, just the same and as unmemorable as everything else out there.
I feel that I lost 1.5 hours of my life and I want them back. Sadly, that will probably not happen. I got more laughs out of Battlefield Earth which was meant to be serious than this piece of celluloid that will hopefully fade into oblivion as so many other films of this type already have. One last parting thought: Whatever happened to teen films like The Breakfast Club and Animal House? Have people forgotten how to make films like those?
score 1/10
