I remember when it came out there was a lot of buzz around it, saying it was just as funny as the Hangover and things like that. I just watched it on Netflix yesterday and I was a bit let down, probably due to my expectations. I wasn't expecting it to be 'Airplane!' funny or anything, but I wanted a little more I guess. It had its moments but overall I felt like it was kind of average. I don't really have any desire to watch it again.


What does the board think?

I watched it on netflix and wasn't expecting too much but thought it was really funny. Not as funny as the Hangover IMO but still really good.

i enjoyed it quite a bit, thought it was more clever than the advertising made it out to be. the parts with john cusack and lizzy caplan were whatever, but the rest of it was great.

What this guy said. It was an enjoyable movie but nothing groundbreaking.

I thought it was funny and expected it to be retarded. A few things could have been better.

1. If you are going to get Chevy Chase to cameo in kind of an important role, try making him be funny.

2. The ending was dumb, and completely illogical. Not that it really mattered, because the movie was a movie about a HTTM.

3. Why were these dudes so averse to tapping teenage twiz? That would have been the first thing I did.

It wasn't an amazing comedy but I thought it was very enjoyable and I got a few laughs out of it.

I didn't find it particularly funny, for whatever reason. Maybe my mind just wasn't in it.

I have been planning on catching it on Netflix instant...perhaps I will like it the second time around.

Thought it was goofy and fairly funny, but not hysterical. The guy in the bear costume cracked me up, for no reason. And every scene with Crispin Glover was terrific.

Funniest movie of all time.

Far, far, far funnier than that overrated piece of crap The Hangover.

no fricking way. HTTM was okay at best, overall I liked it but there were some big weak spots in it.
