Review: Quite funny, albeit a bit cheesy in some parts. Don’t expect gut-splitting laughter from start to finish. It leads in nicely and then feathers out to a more serious (but not drama-serious) ending. I could do without the “romance” ending, but that’s to be predicted in a film like this. There was a nice little unexpected twist with the nymphy (is that even a word?) redhead and Jeremy. Owen Wilson is always funny in a quiet, sarcastic way and good-ol-boy Vince Vaughn spices it up nicely with the cynical A-type personality depicted in his character. It wasn’t quite as funny as it had been hyped up to be by most everyone I know who’s seen it, but I would recommend this flick. I wouldn’t spend $9 at the gate to watch it again, but adding it to my Netflix queue is quite possible.

For about the last week I have been squeezing toothpaste out of an empty tube. This life being a bachelor sometimes has its disadvantages… On the plus side, just think of how efficient I am by using the very last (and then some) before throwing it away. Less Crest in the landfill has to be a good thing.
