Looks like it'll be between this one and that new Sandler twins movie (whatever the hell it's called) for Worst Film of 2011. Both Happy Madison productions not surprisingly.
Wow. I had heard and read so many things about this but never watched the trailer. Looks like one of those films you love to hate. I'll rent it for a buck just to see how bad it really is.
I'll buy this if they include the trailer and the hilarious TV spots staring Peter Dante. But I doubt Sony put the effort into that, so it looks like they will lose one of the few sales they could have had.
You’ll laugh! You’ll cry! You’ll lose your mind! September 9! Rated R!
Big Pass on this "movie".I saw the TV spots for this crap...The movie supposedly cost 10 million to make, but it didn't even make 2 million in the two weeks that it was in the boxoffice...
The sad thing about this movie is that the very lovely Christina Ricci had to appear in this. Christina, you are better than this piece of garbage of a movie!! And seeing you on Pan Am every week is proof of that...
Why did Don Johnson even bother to do this? On that note why can't they release the original Miami Vice series on blu ray instead of wasting the publics time with this.
