Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
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.
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.
Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
