Gave it a watch tonight impressed.

Some of the wording made the film.

Ben Stiller made a movie I enjoyed him in, that might be a first.

There was big hype to this movie, but i have to say i thought it was total crap. I've only ever stopped watching one other movie before in my life in the middle. This was 2/10 at best. Sorry to be such a negative nancy

I thought it was a blast! Tom Cruise played something new for him and I loved it. Course then again im easily entertained...in any case I thought it was damn funny.

I'm not a huge fan of silly comedy movies, I like a good dark or dry comedy, but I thought it was good.

Any of the Wes Anderson movies will fit this. (in this order, all good) These range from dry to dark in my book.
-The Royal Tenenbaums
-Bottle Rocket
-Rushmore
-The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
-The Darjeeling Limited

I would say I enjoy MST3K, I think I laugh the hardest at these shows. And now the new Rifftrax, check them out

For dark I would say.
Dr. Strangelove
Catch-22
Fargo
The Big Lebowski

The movie over all was ok. Ben Stiller was the worst part of it. The best part was Tom Cruise and Robert Downey, Jr. It was nice seeing Cruise play a non-serious role finally. I wish Jack Black's role was a little better.

Got this in via netflix & decided to watch this tonight. Turned it off about 25 minutes in. Just wasn't doing it for me. Really disappointed.

I made it about 10 minutes farther than you did before I shut it off.

Honestly I found more of that in 2nd time watching it.

I know a lot of people are let down by it but 2nd time around it was even better.

I thought the movie was completely disgusting as well. I was ashamed to be watching it with my fiancee and his parents. I actually fell asleep while watching it.
