I've actually been to two movies in the last month or so. This may be a start of a new trend for me. Of course, my daughter's been my date both times, but whatever. She's fun :)

So, that being said, there were a few awkward scenes that I'm sure both of us would have preferred not having watched together...but we're both pretty cool, so it wasn't too bad. The movie was hilarious--loved it. Vegas was awesome & the chairs scene in the hotel room was cracking me up.

I am eventually going to have to stop making my daughter be my "dinner & a movie" date...she's going to be scarred...

That chair is being droll!

Why is this chair so high...?

Great movie. Not as good as Wedding Crashers, but definitely in the same league as 40 Year old Virgin.

Wow, and here I thought Wedding Crashers was overblown and not very funny. Huh.

I loved this movie...after having a kid, recently, I felt it was a very true and very funny representation. You had enough crude humor for the guys and enough real storyline for the chick flick lovers.

All of the dialogue between the bachelor guys was amazing. I guess it's a good thing they're all friends in real life.

I thought this movie was much better than Wedding Crashers and 40 Year Old Virgin.

I just watched it. Awesome movie. I think one thing that differentiates Judd Apatow's movies from most comedies is the writing for the supporting actors. Everyone in this movie was flippin hilarious. The buddies, the daughter, the co-workers, and even the bouncer. They were all so unique and funny.

DYK that the two daughters are Apatow's real kids with his wife (the girl who plays Paul Rudd's wife in the movie)?

Yeah, I read that. I thought the daughter was hilarious. I suspect we'll be seeing her again down the road.

I can't believe some of you didn't like Wedding Crashers that move is freakin hilarious. This one was good but 40 and WC are better as all out comedies as this one had more real life kinda drama situations.

I like it but I dont think it was even close to being as hilarious as everyone told me it was going to be. I was kind of dissappionted actually after all of the hype.

:stupid:

Kind of a let down. Had it's moments but I was expecting more.

And for some reason I felt I was watching a story about Cheesebeef and Ouchie. With Cheese being the younger brother.

Watched this last night. Agree with some of the others, that it was a bit disappointing.

It was like a reunion of the Freaks & Geeks cast which was awesome. It was great seeing Martin Starr again.

Saw this about a week ago - had some funny parts. I was expecting to like it a lot more than I did though.

I thought it was funny, had some bad spots and it took me awhile to get past the "there's no way she'd end up with him" stuff.

Man, you haven't been looking around your local mall enough. If there is one thing smoking hot chicks can do it is date guys that make you think that the chick must be blind.

When I see what you just explained I think the exact opposite.. I think.. Man that dude is a square bear, even took her to the mall to buy her whatever she wants.. And still prolly aint even getting the drawls..

You will more often see a smoking hot chick with an unattractive man than you will see a super hot dude with an unattractive woman. It's just the way it is.

I'll go as far to say I've NEVER seen a "super hot dude" with an ugger... unless he was going hogging at last call. In a supermarket or out in public during daylight? That's something I've NEVER seen. NEVER (just in case I wasn't clear about NEVER!)!
