I watched it this weekend and thought it was pretty funny. The whole N in Paris scene in the car had me cracking up. The fire, the wig/extensions, the synagogue. It was a cute little movie that poked fun at a really lot of things, which it what I'd expect from Eddie Murphy and Julia Dreyfus. Was it the best comedy ever? No. But I did laugh.

I really enjoyed it. The worst person in the movie isn’t Julia or Eddie, it’s Jonah’s piece of shite victim mentality podcast partner.

Wow

Those jokes about rappers are really out of touch

Pretty funny movie. I had multiple laughs. The only person I didn't like was Jonah's podcast partner. The whole "black and white people can never get along" diatribe really made no sense to me. That point seemed very contradictory in a movie where an interracial couple is making it work, even while having an a-hole father, and a mother who doesn't know when to shutup.

I’m about 40 minutes in and enjoying it. But I really like cringe humor.

JLD gave SJP a run for her money on “Family Stone” with a cringe tirade.

ETA: this is a gift from the Honorable Louis Farrakhan.

Well I’m familiar with what he said about the Jews.

Yes. The podcast partner sucked.

I thought it was OK. Good to see New New again.

yeah it wasn't bad, sort of like an appatow flick though where the ending falls off and becomes predictable

had enough laughs in it though. The ortho at the synagogue "oh yeah he's in some trouble"

podcast partner was terrible, I'd bet whomever wrote that whole "cheating spouse" bit thought it was clever but it was dumb

I absolutely love Julia Louis-Dreyfuss and was not disappointed. I was surprised by how endearing Jonah Hill’s character was, and the casting of Nia Long and Lauren London as mother/daughter was brilliant. David Duchovny’s role was mostly a dud, but I thought Eddie Murphy was excellent.
