Disappointment for a huge fan!
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
