Just watched this earlier today, and i must say that it was pretty funny. The first 20 minutes or so were pure gold. I thought the ending dragged on a bit, but it was definitely worth seeing.

So what did everyone else think of it?

I'm kind of sick of Will Ferrell, so I wasn't sure if I was going to like this. But I laughed a lot. Great cast, lots of fun. Do recommend.

Don't go chasing waterfalls.

I haven't seen Will Ferrell's work in a long time, so this was a refreshing change. I don't think any other actor could portray Allen's neuroses as well as he did.


I'm not a bad enough dude, but I am an edgy little shit. I'll do what I can.

Yeah, this was a bit of a different role for him. There was a little bit of classic Ferrell in there, but for the part he was the straight man to Wahlberg's giant ball of anger.

Yep, and to me that was the key to making this movie so much fun. It wasn't amazing, but it was a good and decently fun movie. Mark Wahlberg really made it for me.
