Well, if I were to look at the movie from a distance, yes the plot is kind of mundane. Yes, it has some potty humour. But you know what? There were several scenes where I laughed out loud, and I had a good time. Isn't that is what movies are about?
It appears to me that people are being critical just because Ivan Reitman did Ghostbusters, and how great that was. If there were no comparisons, I think you would realize that this is a fun movie.
It's not going to win any oscars, and it's not the greatest sci-fi comedy in the world. In the end however, my wife and I had a good time. It was worth the $4 DVD rental.
Don't let these amateur reviewers scare you from having a good time. I admit I wanted to watch this one in the theater and online reviews scared me from the theater and deterred me from renting it. I'm glad I changed my mind.
