One of the best comedies in the past twelve months.....

Being an avid middle aged Harley Rider, I loved the movie, as did the rest of the sold out audience at the Sneak Preview. Not many flicks get a full round of applause at the end... This one did, and it was well deserved.

The cast played very well off each other and all contributed equally.

Not much subtlety and no hidden meaning.... Just pure entertainment!

You know a movie is good when there is unanimous laughter throughout the movie. This one had tons of laughs & great sight gags.

I was worried that they were showing all the funny stuff in the previews, but that isn't the case. The movie will keep you laughing.... The only comedy to surpass this one recently was Borat!

Go see the movie.... You will enjoy it!
