I have unfortunately consumed this. I really wish I hadn’t. I agree with the other two entries about this film. It is just not that good. In fact, I fell asleep towards the end and I have no desire to find out what happened. Don’t waste your time.

I’m not a big Ben Stiller fan, and this did not endear me to him. Hard to have any sympathy for his character, a jerk called Eddy, who lies to every woman in his life. There are a few chuckles, more slapstick than really funny. A lot of the situations Eddy gets into felt like fingernails being scraped down a blackboard. Despite all that, Michelle Monaghan and Malin Akerman created interesting multi-dimensional characters. The resort scenery is nice, too. Otherwise, not much to recommend this.

The first Ben Stiller movie I ever saw was “Meet the Parents.” That film and this one have at least one thing in common, they make me horribly uncomfortable. The situations he gets himself into make me cringe! But I guess that’s the point. Overall, this was a cutsie rom-com without the standard happy ending. I hear its a remake, but I never saw the original.
