I'll definitely rent it. Saw Chevy Chase was in it, and even if it is a cameo, that man hasn't made me laugh since Dirty Work.

I am real interested in seeing John Cusack back in some really wild comedy, it feels like forever since he has been in one. I still have alot of love for Better Off Dead and One Crazy Summer Very Happy

With all due respect, I haven't seen him in anything since Dirty Work, but yeah his part was awesome.

Don't know about this movie, seems too much is built on the idea that "uh oh, we're in the past and everything's different!" sort of shit, and I don't know if that could hold the movie together very well.

Chevy Chase is one of the stars of Community, and is phenomenal.

Yeah community was one of those shows that I didn't think would be funny at all, but after first episode I was hooked, Chevy and the rest of the cast are fucking hysterical.

Well I love Cusack and Chevy and they do not disappoint in this one. The best part is, they don't try too hard to explain a reasonable plot like some comedies do, which can lead to a long, drawn out film. To me, its in the style of Zombieland, just a fun movie to watch and have a great time.

i saw it yesterday on my movie day (woohoo 4 movies, 1 day) and i loved it. very stupid, but it knows its stupid on purpose, so the humor worked well.

i loved the bit w/crispin glover and his arm.

I just saw it and really enjoyed it. I think it is actually better than The Hangover.

saw it and liked it.

I thought Chevy Chase was terribly unfunny in it however.

^ Yea, I pretty much agree.

Overall, I thought this was hilarious.

I thought he was all right but they could have had him be more funny.

I felt the same way about it, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I loved it. Sure it seems rushed in a few parts, but it's a comedy, you don't go for the plot. Definitely worth going to see if you haven't yet.

I find the character unbearable, but I think that is the point. Chevy plays it perfectly, but I rarely laugh.

Haha, that whole scene is soooo 80's. Crying and writing poetry in the dark.

Ok... I take it back, Chevy made me laugh in the last episode... pretty damn hard.
