    I really like Will Ferrell and his movies no matter how goofy they can be. This movie was not really funny and had sexual parts that were not necessary and detracted from the film. It was a disappointment.

    I am a big fan of Will Farrell movies, but this one was boring and dragged out. It was no where near as good as any of this other movies. For me, it was it worst ever movie.
