It’s so stereotypical !!!! (Crude Father, Wife whipped best friend) that its just not that funny.
Ben Stiller marries a women who turns out to be psycho (funniest bit of the movie), then falls for someone else.
The women he falls for – whether its the average acting or bad script – just doesn’t really crack it. The ending is not your happy, formula-tic ending, but it doesn’t work none-the-less.
Steph’s rating: 4/10 (below average)
i walked out of it
their case for making Stiller’s first wife into an annoying monster, etc. was totally un-convincing… it made him look all the more like a lame-o
