After watching this movie, I couldn't help but be grateful that I hadn't paid to see it. As a movie theatre employee we get to screen movies the night before they open, so I attended. To be honest, I wasn't even expecting much. My presence was merely an attempt to enjoy my last few days of summer before school begins.
Anyway, I knew that Rowan Atkinson(yeah Mr. Bean!) would be funny, because I don't think he's capable of not being funny. Seth Green is pretty funny too, and some of the cameos/smaller roles were good too. Most notably, Kathy Bates was funny--I would have bought a squirrel! Wayne Knight was also pretty funny, despite his short screen time. However the rest of the cast, especially Breckin Meyer(who, sadly, had more screen time than pretty much anyone, if I remember correctly) who was just annoying as hell. Jon Lovitz should stick to "The Critic" and Whoopi Goldberg...well, I'm not even going to go into that.
The ending was one of the worst I've ever seen(and I saw Planet of the Apes this summer), and there were a few things that, frankly, I thought were inappropriate. Some of the jokes they made about certain groups of people seemed, to me, to be in poor taste. I recommend that this movie be avoided at any cost, especially if you have to pay.
