Deserves better

I watch a lot of flicks, especially along the lines of this genre. So I am perplexed that that this film has such low ratings. It is actually very funny, and flows well. Dane Cook and Jessica Alba work well together and the slapstick is good, it is funny...granted I have had a bottle of red wine and a litre of Leffe, but hey, who watches a fun flick dead sober except for Mormons? Essentially I am convinced a bunch of Mormons watched this film--something like 10,000--and they all gave it four stars (also odd given the fact I don't think Mormons can use the internet because of all the porn and caffeine). Nonetheless, do not be put off by the reviews of this film. It is good, fun and very enjoyable. Trust me, I am a good judge of crap, but this is just not crap.
