I was pleasantly Surprised!! A+++

This one was actually one very funny movie indeed....The fact that Bob actually KNOWS KUNGFU helped the believability a whole lot!

A lot of sexual talk and innuendo without nudity? Yes, apart from Bob's own naked butt, which I personally didn't find offensive :D....

Story is not the most original, but who cares when it is executed without flaw, the acting, sets and people are actually believable...

NOT TO BE MISSED!

I would see it again and would probably laugh my ass off just as much. As a matter of fact, I think I am actually going to watch it again tonight.
