Much like its underachieving characters, this film gets itself into a ridiculous place then gives up.

Try as it might to be "Enchanted", it’s still a movie about Smurfs. There’s only so much you can do there.

Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day lead a star-studded cast with dizzying chemistry. No matter how evil your boss is, there’s no way he can hold a candle to these guys.

Cameron Diaz is a morally bankrupt middle school teacher in this comedy about teaching, cheating and boobs. Even with Justin Timberlake and Jason Segel supporting, it never quite comes together.

"The Hangover" goes to Thailand. No really. That’s the only substantive difference.

"Something Borrowed" tries to take you to the place where the hot guy might leave his hot fiancee for the nice girl. Unfortunately, it trips all over itself in the process. It’s like Junior High but with 30-year-olds.

If Hot Wheels and "Ocean’s Eleven" had a baby, and that baby were raised on the set of a bad soap opera filled with melodramatic bodybuilders with awesome cars and hot Brazillian models, it would be this movie. Okay, I admit it. I liked it.

Saoirse Ronan fights for survival in this fairy tale-like actioner that is so much more than just action.

The "Pineapple Express" crew goes on a campy quest for laughs. And if you can take it at face value (and enjoy vulgarity), there is some humor there.
