terrible... so disappointed.
Purely Joyful Movie!
Best movie ever!
n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

View MoreWow, I'm shocked at the negative reviews of this movie. There are too many laugh out loud moments to not enjoy. Just because a movie is predictable, doesn't mean it can't be funny and enjoyable. I'm one of the harshest critics there are, but I think you need to take a movie like this with a grain of salt. Can you put the pieces together in the first 10 minutes? Sure, but that isn't what this movie is about.Ben Stiller is type-casted, sure, but there is a reason for that, he plays this part EXTREMELY well. This isn't a movie that was made with Academy Award aspirations. This film is about sitting back and enjoying a good laugh or two, and it delivers.
View MoreReuben Feffer (Ben Stiller) is a by the numbers guy who calculates risks for a living. He's with his wife Lisa Kramer (Debra Messing) on their honeymoon when she runs off with horribly accented Claude (Hank Azaria). So he goes home alone, and meets an old schoolmate Polly Prince (Jennifer Aniston). She's his opposite, a freestyle no-plans nomad.If this was a simple boy meets girl story, there's a chance for a good rom-com here. But this movie starts off bad. Hank Azaria has a really stupid accent. And having his butt shoved in our face isn't funny. In fact this movie tries very hard and gets very few laughs.It seems that everybody is trying to one up everybody else. Besides wacky Hank Azaria, Alec Baldwin is his inappropriate boss. Philip Seymour Hoffman is his annoying best friend. But Ben Stiller is the biggest problem with a way too pathetic character. Ladies like confidence, so it's hard to see why she likes him. They could fix this easily by Reuben showing passion for the numbers, and Polly loving Reuben for his passion. It's OK to love the numbers. And it's OK to love somebody who loves the numbers.
