I will keep it short and simple. Just watched it, paid 10$ for it, itis worth it. Not much of details as you would expect out of a greatmovie, not much of substance in the movie itself however the acting andthe pace of the movie is so beautiful you wont think of the flaws inthe intricate plans they carry out in the movie. The subtle comedy isreally nice and they have kept the first movie in consid...

I came into this movie thinking that it would suck AND disliking BenStiller very much. But I thought, hey, free tickets, Monday night, howbad could it be? Well, it wasn't. It was much funnier and had a muchbetter script than I had anticipated. Stiller, famous for being *in*funny situations and not making them, actually acted like a comiccharacter, something of a cross between Jim Carrey and Ad...

ScreenwriterMichael Seitzman is no stranger to vastly overblown, yet f...
