I love how the commercials keep touting the big 3 when there are clearly four main guys. Think they could have found somebody worth while like a Mclovin to fill the role.

Pissed Richard Ayoade is not getting his due as the 4th main guy. This movie is worth seeing for Richard alone. Dude rules.

Funny, dumb movie. Loved it. Was worth it just to see Ayoade in action. Wish he was in more mainstream american film...

Richard Ayoade is probably the genuinely funniest guy in the movie. Go check out The IT Crowd on Netflix.

Just rented this for Redbox and watched it. Was funny enough. Not a great film but definitely entertaining. Better than many other steaming piles of movies calling themselves comedies as of late.

What do you guys know Ayoade from, the IT Crowd show? Never heard of it. But I agree the guy was funny in this film.

I thought the montage with the rap music was classic. And a group of guys hanging out with Vaughn is always a good time. Kinda came off the rails towards the end though.

I watched a while ago. Pretty funny. Never even knew who Ayoade was. He was pretty funny in it too.
