Like my first Todd Phillips movie, Old School, I doubt I was the intended audience. I'd venture to guess my sons, both in their twenties, would be the intended audience. But funny is funny. I loved Old School and while I didn't enjoy this movie quite as much, there was a lot here to laugh out loud at.What I appreciate the most about this movie is that it could have been one sight gag after another without really feeling like a cohesive story unfolding. Yet as "in the bright light of day" in any place but Vegas, much of what happens would seem so very, very implausible; somehow you buy it.
Plus, I have already seen this movie twice now about six months apart. Enjoyed it and laughed both times.
If you haven't seen this or even if you have, if you are in a place where you could use a burst of feeling funny this movie should do the trick.
Movie 411:
