Movie Reviews

• watching a film try to pass off misanthropic blunt-wittedness as ''edge''

  Review rate : C by Owen Gleiberman [Entertainment Weekly ]

• the film is fast and often funny. And while it's not for children - really - I bet the adults who just spent a school year with them are going to love it

  by Stephen Whitty [Newark Star-Ledger ]

• no charm anywhere

  by Amy Biancolli [Houston Chronicle ]

• its comic rhythms are out of whack, and sloppy continuity and unfilled story blanks suggest ample post-production surgery on a pic that commenced shooting more than a year ago

  by Leslie Felperin [Variety ]

• equally bad movie

  Review rate : C- by Adam Graham [Detroit News ]

• draws slutty variations on Ho Ho Ho that should have added up to raunchy fun. Sadly, it only took about 10 minutes to wipe the smile off my face

  by Peter Travers [Rolling Stone ]

• doesn't fulfill the basic promise of its genre

  by Karina Longworth [Village Voice ]

• a series of set pieces, some funnier than others

  by Bill Goodykoontz [Arizona Republic ]

• a refreshingly raucous comedy that comes surprisingly close to completely living up to its lack of conviction

  by Glenn Kenny [MSN Movies ]

• a potentially "A" topic with a "C" result that would require considerable remedial writing to upgrade.

  by Peter Howell [Toronto Star ]

• a fitfully amusing comedy that promises far more outrageousness than it actually delivers
