The Rub's Review

Summary - Barely OK 2.0

The good news and the bad news is that the movie is just okay. There were laughs, even a few out loud moments, but they were too few and far between to sustain the whole movie. This is only sadder when you consider the movie is only 85 minutes long. Do not expect anything more than a few hours killed on a Saturday afternoon. It follows every sports, comedy, and movie cliché in the book.

I haven’t completely given up on Will Ferrell movies (Step Brothers actually looks pretty funny) but I think it might be time he foray into new territory like he did in Stranger Than Fiction; give him a chance to grow a little bit.

Acting - Pretty Bad 1.5

Will Ferrell’s act is growing stale. That’s the best way I know how to put it. Woody Harrelson is the very definition of wasted potential.
