The story makes no sense, and the two lead characters are repulsive, but I must confess I laughed immoderately at this clever piece of junk.

Three gags miss for every one that hits.
Matt Zoller Seitz, New York Times
Rotten
There's no good time of the year for such a depressingly insincere movie that shirks any sense of reality but still desperately claws for emotional redemption at the end. Better to abort next time.
Stephen Garrett, Time Out New York
Rotten
I was so angry at everybody involved in the making of this film. It's just astonishing.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

A better film would have matched Arnett's seemingly effortless intensity throughout. This okay film does merely okay by it.
