    I am not a regular to the review column here but I am certain that no one needs to waste their time with this one. It is sloooooooow, extremely random, boring, and goes absolutely nowhere. If you waste your time with this anyway...hey I tried to warn you!

    Yes   |   No

    Ben Stiller has been funnier but not in this movie. A long slow plot basically about Roger who has had a nervous breakdown. Bi-polar would best describe his hot and cold attitude to poor Florence. The dog in this movie was the only real entertainment. and thats saying alot. Would NOT recommend not even as a rental. I can never get those 2 hours of my life back.

    Yes   |   No

    Why is this film so annoying? Let's start with the fact that the two leads are completely unappealing. Then, it's not realistic that a pretty 25 year old girl would be interested in Ben Stiller's character. Also, there are many scenes which don't ring true. I could go on, but let's leave it at this: it sucks! Don't watch it.

    Yes   |   No
