Overrated and overhyped

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Julia Jones (Alyson Hannigan) is a fatty and hopelessly undateable. Her father (Eddie Griffin) urges her to find a man. She falls for Grant Fockyerdoder but knocks him out cold. She gets the help of incompetent dating expert Hitch (Tony Cox). She goes on a reality TV show and finds that Grant is the bachelor. They get together but she can't shake his best friend Andy (Sophie Monk).This movie is unrelenting in spoofing every movie and TV show. Alyson Hannigan holds my attention for a little while. However the plot is little more than an excuse to jam in one reference after another. I get bored after 20 minutes. Adam Campbell is not a particularly good comic actor. The jokes aren't particularly good.

In an age where cinema is bogged down with lighthearted fare like 12 Years a Slave and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, comes a refreshingly original exploration of what it means to be one of the feline species. I feel sincerely that the director and writers should be extremely proud of taking on such a difficult topic with such aplomb, to say nothing of the fantastic cast, who breathe rich life into such well rounded characters.But really, the star of this piece is Jinxers. For too long have felines been forced to live in the shadow of their canine cousins. Often portrayed as ruthless, evil creatures hellbent on world domination. Finally, thanks to a shrewd script we witness the true side of the cat world. Intelligence, creativity and sexual prowess.To say that the feline defecation scene exemplifies cinematic art at it's finest would be an understatement. Creatively shot, it carefully depicts the skill and mental ability that cats bring to this world. With deft scripting we are able to witness a side of the feline not previously shown on celluloid. For too long have bigots trodden the cat name into the ground with falsehoods about litter boxes and small piles of faeces in the gardens of fellow neighbours. Finally the truth is revealed.At a time when Oscar nominations are going to such hacks as Robert De Niro, Jinxers executes his role perfectly. With subtle movement and flare he conveys the emotional trauma of cat crappery. People have dared to suggest to me that Jinxers is, in fact, animatronic. How offensive. Such a skilled performance could only be accomplished by such a fine thespian and people should miss his work at their peril.This movie is an unrequited masterpiece and I am appalled that this ever shallow world of low brows and Daniel Day Lewises more people are unable to recognise such fine artistry.

This is probably the worst comedy or parody movie yet. I expected a little more since the two of the writers wrote "Scary Movie", but it was not funny at all. It seemed like Jinxers the cat was the only funny part, and Jinxers was like a puppet. That's just a little bit sad. They tried to make parodies but it did not work, like "The Lord Of The Rings" parody they tried to pull off.The actors and actresses were horrible. They had no acting talent. There was major holes in the movie,and it was just another boring, horrible movie. I do not recommend spending money on this movie. (The Main guy isn't even attractive)

This movie features a gag where a cat sits on a toilet for over a minute while disgusting noises play.I laughed hysterically at this. For the whole scene.This movie is good for the immature-at-heart. Anyone looking for real satire should look elsewhere. A few stretches aren't funny, but enough made me laugh to give this an 8/10.That's really all I can say about the humor. The production quality, acting, and music are all right, though nothing special.Most of the best gags are visual. I don't think the writers know much about verbal comedy.
