I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

you'll like this movie. Witty, funny comedy from a group of fairly unknown actors, whose future looks pretty bright (will Adrianne Palicki become the new Jennifer Aniston?). You get an Arrested Development feel from the comedy, probably because the film's writer was one of the writers for Arrested Development and My Name is Earl, so the humor is similar. The jokes are risky but not raunchy,the characters are interesting, though slightly predictable.The movie comes off as fun, not preachy or burdened with moral judgment or life lessons. There's a funny cameo from Matt Walsh who seems to be everywhere these days, So if your looking for pure comedy this is your movie, sit back and enjoy.

I saw that one reviewer said this film is "where Kevin Smith used to be." I would say it's more along the lines of Dave Chappelle, (even though I like Kevin Smith, Dave is a MUCH funnier guy). By now you've read the synopsis, so I won't bore you with any of those details. What I will say is that I went into this movie with only mild expectations, and was damn-near blown away at what I was watching! This movie is one of the very few flicks that made me spit out what I was drinking because it was so damn funny! (It's not a "spoiler" to say that I'm referencing a certain smoke break with a man of color) I strongly recommend this movie, and sincerely hope it gets more attention!

I found this film by accident and am glad I did. What a great film, great comic timing, a great storyline and a great cast. Yes I thought the film was great. The film harks back to the films Kevin Smith made in the beginning of his career and I wish he had continued. I thoroughly enjoyed this film from its brilliant and creative opening credits to its little jokes in the end credits. There were actual laugh out loud moments and I really think that Josh Groban stole the show.The cast worked well together and they all seemed to enjoy the film. The extras, down to Phil's happy birthday opera being dismissed was really funny. Those who hate politically incorrect jokes may not enjoy the film as much as I did, but if you just enjoy a joke for the sake of a joke then this film is one to see.

This is one of those films that grabbed me right off the bat with it's true-to-life dialogue and immensely fun detailing of the small but hilarious things we all experience in daily life but have never taken the time to put into words. It's the movie version of GOOD stand-up comedy, and while I'm not much of a reviewer, I wasn't ten minutes into this before I felt an insatiable obligation to share the pleasure with someone. Which seems like a natural sentiment considering how much charm this movie derives from its relatability.The plot is simple enough and seems sufficiently outlined in IMDb's summary, so I won't repeat it here. Note: For fans of, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia", Glenn Howerton brilliantly deadpans the same type of semi-sociopath we've grown to...love to laugh and shake our heads at. He makes this film a treat. But what makes this movie truly engaging is its ability to produce a seemingly nonstop stream of jokes so personally relevant to the viewer and our daily lives, as to make one feel as if they're just as much of an insider to the humor as they are a witness. The dialogue's pace is its other strong suit. An off-hand remark may be overlooked by the characters as their attention is diverted elsewhere (along with the viewers') and and may have you intermittently wishing for a pause button in order to better relish just how funny these gems are. But by maintaining its momentum, the movie is allowing the viewer to catch some of these fastballs themselves, which of course, makes them that much more enjoyable. I'd compare its pacing with that of NBC's 30 Rock, but by replacing Rock's off-brand style of quirky jokes with the off-beat dialogue of a quirky character? The increase in humor just explodes exponentially. Really, this movie is THAT funny. If you're anything like me and not generally a laugh out loud type of person when it comes to cinema, I'll bet you'll find yourself coming out of this feeling like I did...that you really didn't have much of a choice in the matter!Many Kudos to CollegeHumor for that rare comedy that you'll probably want to watch again immediately after your first viewing so as to be better prepared for the onslaught of funny.
