Boring, dull and totally (except for a few nice bits) not a funny film. Only Billy Bob Thornton saves the film a bit. Because Sean William Scott especially was horrible! Only in the American Pie series he is nice, because in general he is a really terrible actor. I had actually seen this movie a while ago, but when it was back on TV tonight, I found out that I had never voted for this one before. Furthermore, it was very predictable, and the humor was way too bland. A film that I had fortunately already forgotten (until tonight), but I have succeeded once before, so quickly forget this mess.
1.5* for Billy Bob Thornton and the two funny jokes in the film.

Just manage to entertain.
Although I have to admit that there is a lot more to this cast, and that it is a shame that in addition to the standard ending, the jokes (and therefore the entire film) are very predictable (although I have to admit that I thought that the recorded sex video would also be revealed somewhere).
Slightly adequate, but actually disappointing.

This one turned out better than expected. I only knew Sean William Scott from American Pie, but in this film he plays a slightly more mature role and does so with verve. Billy Bob Thornton (after all, the star of the film) can play his trusted role again, that of brompot and he can do this as the best. Susan Sarandon previously played a small role, so don't expect much from her.
The story isn't that special, but didn't bother. Don't expect a grand comedy, but rather one with some funny moments and sayings. Good to watch on TV.
