This is a funny film. Unfortunately its not an intelligent film. And I believe thats why there is a huge amount of negative reviews here. Generally I would agree if a film is not intelligent it deserves to be slated and I will look at a film with a pretty critical eye but when I saw this I was quite inebriated. And in being so I believe I discovered the way to watch this film if you are an adult. Its a perfect party film for the twenty something after everyone has had a drink or 4. The ludicrous nature is forgivable in a non sober state and once inhibitions and the adult mind set is lost you start to realize its a hilarious film.
Of course this is a kids film and despite what you may read in popular media I gather not to many kids are off knocking back rum before watching films. However if you are a parent and willing to take the advice of a drunkard I believe that any young kid who hasnt contracted the cynicism of the teenage years should love this film. And if you are able to find their innocence infectious without the aid of alcohol (me and the IMDB im sure discourages the use of alcohol whilst watching family films with your family) you may even enjoy this one yourselves.
