Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
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.
.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
