This will be the second time within the year that I've tried to watch this movie, but couldn't get past the first half hour. The stars on the back cover are deceptive, as is the CLAIM that it's hilariously funny. THIS IS NOT MY BRAND OF COMEDY. That first half hour needs something more in order to hold a viewers interest.
