I’m a fan of Seth Rogan, and that’s pretty much why I wanted to see this movie. Also, it came out right when Paul Blart: Mall Cop did,and with 2 mall cop movies out at the same time, this one definitely looked better.
In all honesty, I didn’t think it would be that good, but it looked okay enough to spend a few bucks at the cheap theater. The trailer was not a good representation of the movie; I was expecting a whole “dork guy going after hot chick” plot, and instead was pleasantly surprised with a bit more deeper story than that. The acting was good, a well-rounded cast of characters that played off each other rather well with their unique quirks. There was a lot more action than I originally thought, usually the stuff you see in the trailer is the bulk of it, but there was quite a bit of good fight scenes and stunt work. I’d have to say the best part was definitely the ending, not as cliche as you would expect from this movie’s premise.
My advice: This is a higher-brow dumb comedy. Give it a chance, a rental at least. I’ll check the DVD out because I’m sure there’s some great outtakes and deleted scenes to be had.
