The best thing this movie does is not take itself seriously and the audience will do well to do the same. It's easy not to set your expectations too high with a movie like this and there are some genuine laughs to be had. Cheesy - yes, silly - yes but also entertaining.

If you want to watch a movie and is fun watch then you'd do a lot worse than watching this. It's got some snappy scripting, and the characters are generally likable. (Casting on the red neck brother in law is spot on! haha). I'll be the first to admit, I fine it hard to sometimes watch Tom Cruise knowing about his **** crazy Scientology beliefs... but in this movie he does a great job. Def. a fun watch.

I really wanted to like this movie. There are moments where it lives up to it's promise but overall the characters are weak and poorly developed, there is no chemistry between the actors/actresses, the pacing is slow and I found myself struggling to buy into the movie. It felt like it was missing the snappy script or direction of say 'lock, stock and two smoking barrels' which it could have done well to emulate. It just wasn't a fun experience.

I'm not sure why the critics have it in so much for this movie?I have definitely seen worse movies this year. It's an original concept with good pacing... yes there are some stereotypes and cliche's but you're not watching a movie like it's Schindler's List - it s fun, entertaining movie. This is one the critics def. got wrong.
