I thought the picture was ok but it didn't mix the action/comedy elements succesfully

this kind of surprised me, I thought the cast was great, the story was odd and the humor worked, but then it just ends... that's remedied though by extra footage at the very end of the credits.

I caught this in the afternoon today and thought it was just ok; most of the funny lines were in the red band trailer.

Saw this today. Take back what I said about Ansari. He was hilarious in this movie. Everyone was pretty much playing what we're used to seeing but it was a lot of fun. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed it, some hilarious back and forth banter. Normally Aziz gets on my nerves but I liked him in this. Danny McBride was channeling Kenny Powers, so that was fun to see.
Might pick this up one day for under $10.

Saw this yesterday, liked it for the most part but don't know anything about Aziz and he was really annoying...almost to the point where he ruined the movie. But it seems others liked him.

Finally caught this tonight. Half the movie was excellent. That half being the scenes with Aziz* and Eisenberg. The other half with Danny McBride & Nick Swardson nearly ruins the movie. I, for the life of me, cannot fathom the infatuation with McBride. That, coupled with all the juvenile humor associated with those two just dragged down what could have been a really solid movie.

*I can see how people have a problem with Aziz though. He's got a loudmouth/Chris Tucker vibe going. It worked for me though in this movie.

This was my exact thinking too. McBride ans Swardson arent funny and they practically ruined this movie.

Take it you're not a fan of Kenny Powers? Probably the greatest character in tv history.

I watched about four eps of that show and he is the same in that as he is in this movie, a jackhole that no one likes or wants around. Not funny.

Never seen E&D, so I'm basing my opinion solely on his movie roles.

Spoiler:
What? You deflowered my sister and I know all the details???!!!!!!!!!!!



IMHO the sister could have provided more comedic opportunity and was underused.
Hated Mcbride.
