Review

the least funny judd apatow production i can think of. it also has the distinction of the fewest laughs per comedian of any film i can recall. the film has cameos from like 20 comedians and james taylor gets as many laughs as any of them. it’s also a bloated work – too long and in need of editing. there are some good themes here and some nice laughs, but it’s not as good as 40 year old virgin or knocked up. watch this only if you’ve seen those first.
