Saw it last nite... As with most comedy movies, it helps when the cinema is full and the entire crowd is laughing and enjoying the film. Last nite though, we were in Grand Cineplex 2, which was 30% full. Anyhoo, to the movie...

It was a funny movie, which had an explanation about everything that transpired, which made it a realistic comedy. The way they trace back what they did, and of course how they keep adding to problems, makes it more hilarious!

The end credits help tie the film up, as there is such a curiousity factor as to 'What the F**K happened??'

I really enjoyed the film, but should have watched it earlier, as all the rave reviews raise expectations.

3.5/5

I finally saw this movie last night as well, it was a good comedy and throughly enjoyed it. But the thing I felt odd was that there wasn't any intensity available from the actors, all of them. The movie is great coz of the story and the way its told and the comedy moments, but none of the actors bring out the comedy intensity in them. Its more about how these characters get into situations they are in and not about how they react to them.

Yeah the hen was also something they didn't clarify, plus also on how as soon as they find the baby and they plan it take downstairs, they are able to take the baby in the front carrying bag as shown in the poster also. Some loose ends were still left, but nevertheless a good movie.

I would also give 3.5/5

Last thing is to look for logic in such movies. C'mon, would a cop give his car to Valet? Cheesy

It was a laugh riot; insanely hilarious. I laughed so hard till it hurt. Even at the parts that were so wrong like Zach Galifianakis's Alan baby masturbation innuendo, and when Ed Helm's Stu hit the baby with the car door. Despite its raunchy parts, the film is really sweet and has so much fun parts to offer for everyone. That is why it is such a huge hit. It was not a film made for men, it is a crossover comedy.

We had much fun watching in it in the cinema that we watch it again and we enjoyed it just as much the second time. Although we noticed small differences between the Cinestar's print and Grand's. Cinestar's has less cuts. Example for that, when Stu sings on the piano, the song was cut in the middle when we watched in Grand but not in Cinestar. Also the breastfeeding scene was more censored when we watched it in Grand.

Despite everything, it is a comedy than no one should miss and when it comes to DVD I sure think it will be a classic, and I give it 4.5/5.

"There's this whole school of thought that movies are always so great when you're 10 or 12 years old, and the reality of it is, when you're 10 or 12 years old, you've only seen 100 stories. By the time you get to be 25, you've seen 3,000. You've seen every permutation of every dramatic arc. And when somebody takes that and stands it on its head, that can be exciting." David Fincher

Now the world is spinning around again. I had my worries because you haven't insulted or offended anyone of us for awhile now and something just felt off with the equilibrium of our universe.

Guys, you, our forum members, anonymously praised or at least enjoyed the film, so now you need to pick your category, are you jackasses, fat boys, or perverts. I personally will go with fat boy.
