I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
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 film may be flawed, but its message is not.
