I can't decide

This is one of those movies where, I cant decide if I liked it or i I didnt. I guess I feel the same on both sides about it. It was mildly funny,some of the jokes were corny and you see in about every movie. But some were pretty funny. The first time. Not a good movie to buy. I gave it a 7.
