PSH trying to play basketball is low key one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

When Leland radios Reuben and says “I think I may have fractured my coccyx” always makes me laugh. Favorite part is sandy giving the presentation. Clearing throat or five minutes is classic. Last name Reeper first name Grim. Funny arse movie.

I lose it every time when he says

“All of us here at Inderby and Friends”

The firm’s name is Indursky and Sons

That scene is the best. My husband and I will do that terrible fake throat clearing when we are trying to stall for time... "uuunnnnhh--unnnnnhhh"

The secondary characters - Alec Baldwin, Bryan Brown, Hank Azaria, and most definitely PSH absolutely MAKE this movie.

PSH was one of the best dramatic actors of the last 25 years or more and he just pops up in this movie doing pratfalls and stealing the show from Ben Stiller. They guy was amazing

Would've been the perfect actor for the Doc Antle role in the Tiger King movie.

Stiller is the least funny guy in the whole movie. Of course, that’s by design as the “straight man”. PSH, Azaria, Alec Baldwin are all hysterical

Stiller has two modes. Perfect straight man facilitating everyone around him or over the top outrageous prick

Straight man:
There’s something about Mary
Meet the parents
Along came Polly


Over the top
Heavyweights
Dodgeball

Meet the Parents is still his best straight man.

The Deniro car scene is perfect Stiller straight man.

Which is odd because you think DeNiro is the straight man but he's actually being comedic.

I used to love Meet the Parents but Along Came Polly is comic gold and I don't even like Aniston.

PSH is the very first person I thought of when I first saw Doc Antle. Man, he would've been the perfect casting.

And the slip and fall scene is one of the few scenes that made me legit LOL in a movie theatre. It was so abrupt. They didn't mail it in either

Rewatched this last night.

I would’ve loved to be in the pitch meeting for this movie


“Alright Ted here has a great idea for a movie, just remember he’s still a little sore about how his recent marriage ended so go easy on him....alright ted let’s hear it!”



“Okay so you have this guy who gets married....AND HIS CHEATING WHORE OF A WIFE frickS THE SCUBA GUY ON THE HONEY MOON”



“Whoa Ted, we are hoping for a PG-13 movie here. Typical rom com stuff, that’s a bit depressing”

“Don’t worry man! The guy, based on no one at all, is totally over that in like a week and starts banging like a total smoke show”
