It almost seems like harder work somehow to get this many comedians together and then turn out a movie that is only so fitfully funny. Go to Full Review

Its jokes won't appeal to anyone older than 8, but a parent who takes a child to this crass mess would be subject to prosecution. Go to Full Review

Ed R @JustcallmeER Nov 3 What an odd movie, especially for one to be Rated R. See more Patrick F 05/13/2024 I had higher hopes for this movie considering the cast. It had a few laughs hear and there, but it was generally an unfunny mess. There no character development and actual story arc. It was just a serious of bits. A few laughs, but I debated not finishing the movie while watch. Overall very disappointing. See more patrick f 02/03/2023 I had higher hopes for this movie considering the cast.

You simply cannot, but you can give this movie the time of day. The casual nature of how the adult cast uses the word F-ck...wow just wow. It's done so effortlessly around the kid cast it really is truly a break through in cinema. Patton you truly did it you madman.
