This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
