Fairly Entertaining But Nothing Special
27 April 2005
Warning: Spoilers
This is a fairly entertaining film but nothing special. It had a few funny moments, and Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson were a good pair, however, it's rather unfunny,and predictable, plus, i really don't like the new trend of comedy(except for Hitch and Meet The Fockers). I wasn't expecting much, and that's exactly what i got not much, while the cameos by Paul Michael Glaser and David Soul were very cool, i just didn't find the movie that great, and a little overrated. The movie is worth the watch, and a lot of people really enjoyed this however,while i had an okay time with it was nothing special and it could have been a lot better. The Direction was decent. Todd Phillips does a decent job here with some cool camera work,and angles, but it was nothing special, however the pace was fine. The Acting is very good. Ben Stiller is excellent as usual,he is hilarious,likable, had awesome chemistry with Owen Wilson, and was fun to watch, he is one of the funniest guys out there!. Owen Wilson is good here, while he gets on my nerves sometimes, he was pretty funny for the most part, and had awesome chemistry with Stiller. Vince Vaughn, is decent as the main villain, but not a huge fan for the most part. Snoop Dogg was decent here, and did his job rather well. Juliette Lewis is gorgeous, and is one of my favorite actresses, but is utterly wasted here and given nothing to do!. Fred Williamson is good here as the Captain, and added some good laughs to the film. Jason Bateman was okay here, and nothing more. Carmen Electra and Amy Smart are GORGEOUS, but are also wasted, and only here to give us viewers eye candy. Overall Worth a rent, but i really didn't like it all that much, fairly entertaining but nothing more.
