Looks kind of funny, but the people involved all seem really shitty.

The cast looks pretty solid. Don't like Trace Adkins and Leslie Nielsen has been overused in this kind of movie, but other than that, no complaints. The one problem is that it's cowritten by David Zucker, who isn't as sharp as he used to be. He can still write some brilliant scenes, but his recent projects tend to be inconsistent.

That's tough to say, though. He hasn't done much writing in a long while, and only a little directing.

Baseketball is the last thing I remember him being associated with that was truly great. I know his name was attached to Rat Race and at least one Scary Movie.

People make fun of Rat Race all of the time. I thought it was a pretty funny movie.

Rat Race had some great scenes. The part where they steal Hitler's car is awesome.

I think this movie is going to be so conservative it´ll end up being the wingnut equivalent of "Reefer Madness".

I forgot that's coming out this weekend, gonna have to make time for it. It'll be nice seeing a movie making fun of the far left for a change.

He's actually the brother of the late Chris Farley.
