Not the greatest movie. Really funny though. He
Not as bad as people have written..........give it a chance
To be honest I quite enjoyed this film, OK its not a laugh out loud all the time comedy but it does have its moments. Sometimes it comes across as a serious film and its gets confusing as to what sort of route its taking. I think the viewer needs to sit down, relax and watch it with an open mind, that way you will find yourself enjoying it. The premise of the film is basically about a Naive Mall Cop (Seth Rogan) who suffers from Bi-Polar, his aim in life is to become a Police officer, without going into too much detail and spoiling it, he sets his target of finding a Flasher that is terrorising customers of the Mall to prove to an investigating police officer (Ray Liotta) he is capable of doing his job. Along the way he tries to win the heart of a Make-up Clerk (Anna Faris) with miserable consequences. All in all, many films I have seen recently I have switched off halfway through, not interested in seeing what happens in the end, this I watched to the end. I thought the ending was good, can't see what other people thought was so bad about it, yes it was a bit harsh, but all was OK. Sorry about the review being a bit short on the info part, but did not want to reveal too much about it.
Not impressed by Rogen for once.
I really enjoy watching movies with Seth Rogen in them, but not this time. It had some good lines in it that made me laugh out loud but nothing could save this movie from the worst script and ending from any film in the past 5 years. I nearly vomited when they show the fat guy running through the mall for almost 5 minutes. Granted some parts of the chase were funny, I would have rather his coat stay closed because that just made that entire scene unpleasant to me. Then right after the chase their is literally like 5 minutes and the abruptly ended. I for once will not recommend this movie, nothing against Rogen but I hated this film.
