I have to; no, WANT to agree whole-heartedly with the original review of this movie. It IS stupid, BRILLIANTLY stupid and quite funny. No, it'll never win an Oscar nor does it try to. It simply tries to give a laugh and for those who 'get the joke' it does just that. Those who so vehemently trash this film seem to be nothing more than snobs. Loosen up. It doesnt have to be an A list movie to be terrific.
Well, thats MY humble opinion, anyway -

Exactly! Thank you for being another person who gets it!
I find the movie to be genius, and I'm single handedly trying to get it to become a cult classic, but now with even Comedy Central playing it, it seems to not work.
I mean, it was never done seriously, not for a moment. This lets you pay attention to the jokes, making them amazing.
