I actually saw this one on Christmas day too. :)

I loved this movie. It was one of the funniest I've seen in a very long time. I'm sure I'll be getting the DVD once it is out.

I'm glad you liked the review. Thanks for the comment. :)

This movie... (Reply to this comment)

...was great fun! This was the one we chose to watch on Christmas Day with my husband's nephew and nieces (it's a family tradition), as almost everyone had already watched Goblet of Fire and Narnia.

So glad we picked it, as we all had a grand time laughing our heads off. It's undemanding, pure enjoyment, and suitable for all ages...though it has to be said my husband laughed hardest at the dirty paw-print on Tea Leoni's PJs when she woke up.

And I thought Blanca's lisp was just hilarious, esp. when she kept calling Richard 'Retard'. Jim Carey's brilliant and so's Tea Leoni.

Thanks for a great review!

I have read a lot of good things about that one. I just haven't gotten to renting it yet.

If you like Jim Carrey, you gotta see Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind. Very interesting.

When I saw it I figured there would people who didn't like it very much. I just saw it as a funny, entertaining movie.
Sorry you didn't like it more.

Thanks for the comment. :)

I thought it lacked focus, I didn't like how they essentially robbed small business owners and then decide to go after the corporate people. They still could've had fun if they'd decided to just attack corporations from the get go. Even then, I don’t think I could recommend the movie.

nice review.

certainly seems to have found his niche playing bad guys! I saw the original of this one when I was a kid, but don't remember it well. Looks like I may have to give this one a watch!

He is very good at bad guys. His character in this one wasn't as evil as the one from Malice, but the character still wasn't a nice person. Baldwin was perfect in the part.

I didn't even know there was an older version of this until right before it was released. I really liked this one. I was hoping it would be funny, but I didn't get my expectations up too high. I thought it was really funny. I hope you like it if you get the chance to see it.

Thanks for the comment. :)
