This was one bleak black comedy. The entire cast was full of such umpleasant and pathetic characters, none had any redeeming value! Dirty, vulguar, and a weak abd bleak attempt at being a road trip comedy. You have seen better....like National... Full review

I was expecting a comedy when I went to see this movie, but had no idea how heartwarming and sweet it would be. The family is unbelievably dysfunctional, and at times the characters are hard to like but they are infinitely... Full review

Its so interesting how in advertising theres this desire to outdo the previous commercial, to always be wowing with special effects. In doing so, the husband and wife directing duo havent missed a beat; their latest effort, the There Can Only Be One spots for the NBA playoffs, featuring a split screen of two players reciting the same speech about playoff competition, was the inspiration for a recent Time magazine cover featuring Barack and Hillary. ...
