Terrible. Didn't laugh once


I liked the first one, but they went full retard with this one. This should be called "The movie where everybody yells at everybody for two hours".

So many times, I wanted them to just STFU and get on with the story. Anyone else?

reply

I laughed a few times.

But its a terrible film.

Its that man again!!

reply

I laughed from the very beginning to the end. I guess you guys have a different sense of humor than the people who actually enjoyed this. But I do respect both of your opinions.

reply

I liked the first one but this was painful. Too long, the characters turned into total idiots, loads of shouting and half the film was them supposedly sneaking around whilst shushing each other. You could tell they were having a far better time than us poor sods who sat through it.

reply

were you stoned? This is universally hailed as a terrible movie both by critics and the general public. There's no script-it was almost all ad-libbed-and it shows!

reply

No. It's called having an opinion and good sense of humor.

reply

No. Sometimes opinions are ignorant and shallow and ill-conceived. Most likely because your experience with good comedies is limited.

reply

Just stop. Everybody has an opinion to be entitled to. I do admit I like goofball comedies, Adam Sandler movies, etc. Am I easily entertained? Yes. There's nothing to argue about here. You're just being an *beep*

I laughed when Jamie Foxx was driving the El Camino down the road with a chain link fence attached (on all sides).

That was so funny! Sparks flying, low-speed police chase, all four guys stuffed in the El Camino, Motherf_ker Jones sipping that drink (or chewing the candy). Hilarious!

"People die at the fair."

reply

ok, fair enough. Your taste in movies is beep. Got it.

reply

I liked it too Norman :-). Does that upset you?

Most likely your experience with people having different opinions than you is limited. I'm guessing you are either 12 or an only child? (or both?) If I'm wrong, you need to work on presenting yourself better.

FYI, loved the first one, disliked the second one. I just didn't want you to assume that b/c I was defending someone that enjoyed the film that meant I also enjoyed it. I didn't.

reply

So only your idea of a good comedy actually makes a movie a good comedy? I agree with the guy your berating - I laughed from beginning to end. I didn't go see this movie for a great script - who would??? It's a stupid comedy, and that's what you should have expected. If you want subtle, sophisticated humor, you should have gone to see something else.

This is how every post on here should be.

Fighting over movie "tastes" is as pointless as fighting over which foods taste better. (just imagine people arguing this passionately over french fries, pretty stupid, right?)

I didn't enjoy HB2. I gave it a 4. I gave the first one an 8. Feels to me like one of those stories where they weren't planning on making a second one...but then the first one made gobs of money. (felt that way about the Hangover movies as well).

reply

Yup. This and the Hangover sequels were blatant cash grabs.

I heard they intentionally made the 3rd movie bad so they could bury the series.

reply

The boys over at redlettermedia.com thought Todd Phillips did just that; make fun of everything that made the first film so successful, kind of a big *beep* you" to the die-hard fans. HB2 is flat out tedious. Seriously one of the worst film watching experiences of recent memory.

reply

They must have lame senses of humor. I still die laughing whenever I think about, "Did you suck that cock like a bomb pop down to the blue?"

reply

I felt dread from the very opening scene. All the comedy dove straight to the lowest form right off the bat. I'm seriously considering giving up on comedy films, seeing how vulgarity has become the new go-to move for every joke. Did the guys even look like they were having fun?

reply

Did the guys even look like they were having fun?

from the crazy credits at the end.. I would have to say yes, they were having a blast

Welcome to the El Flamingo, Jeffrey!
Don't piss in the pool, Jeffrey.

reply

My gf and I decided to call it a night it was so unfunny and worthless in the first hour, and when I suggested watching it to get our money's worth the next morning, she said she felt it had no redeeming value to even bother finishing, and I agreed. Just a bunch of crap yelling like Steve Carrel in the Ron Burgundy sequel

reply

Not once??? Seriously? I am concerned for your sense of humor. Go see a Dr stat. 

reply

I second that 


Mag, Darling, you're being a bore.

reply

You need to one day just let go, you don't need to understand every bit of detail in a movie. Don't really need to over think it. Just turn your brain off and laugh at terrible movies.

It was a terrible movie but I still enjoyed it
