I've only seen it twice, so my memory may be a little foggy, but I remember thinking it's a bit too random for me, but the random parts are pretty funny. It almost plays out like a series of sketches that are loosely connected. I realize they're retracing their steps, but it failed to connect them like Hangover did. Would I watch it again? Sure. Would I own it? No. Do I consider it a good movie? No. Guilty pleasurable? Yes. |

Well yeah, it's a pretty terrible movie. I wouldn't call it the worst ever, but it is pretty dumb. However, if you turn off the "intelligent moviegoer" portion of your brain and just sit back and enjoy it for what it is, you tend to enjoy it more. It's like a Micharl Bay film. You don't go into a Bay film expecting a cerebral story with deep characters. You go in expecting shell te gel blowed the kriff up. That's it. |

i tried. and it didn't work. awful movie. not even guilty pleasurable for me. however, the worst movie i have ever seen is streetfighter (wuth van damme and kylie minogue). i normally love van damme movies, but this movie is the only movie i have never been able to watch from start to finish. ever. It's like a Micharl Bay film. You don't go into a Bay film expecting a cerebral story with deep characters. You go in expecting shell te gel blowed the kriff up. That's it.
bay can do a decent action movie when he wants to - The Rock. Armageddon. But he also gets too self indulgent which pulls me out of the movie. but i'm not a Bay-hater. i just acknowledge his limitations and indulgences. |

Once in a while he is capable of pulling off a surprise. Unfortunately the movie that gave me such a surprise...I suspect it's against forum rules to even mention, so I will simply say it's recent and leave it at that.

The Rock. Armageddon. I thought those were done by Bruckheimer. For action movies though, I prefer Peter Berg. |

A lot of people find that movie "The Hangover" to be really funny as well, but I found it excruciatingly stupid. But don't listen to me. I'm watching "The Great Outdoors" right now and it still makes me cackle to this day.

the hangover is awesome! Espeically the photo montage at the end. Noctis, have you seen "Very Bad Things" with Christian slater and Daniel Stern? Dark comedy set in Vegas during a bachelor party. Came out before the hangover. |

Unfortunately the montage is the funniest bit in the whole movie. Everything else I labeled as painful comedy. |

fair enough. Each to their own. I think it's hilarious. Don't think I've seen the great outdoors. Does John candy have to eat a REALLY big steak in it, gristle and all? If yes, then I have (although when I was a kid I think I mistook it for a national lampoons vacation movie). |
