Directed by: Todd Phillips
Always be suspicious of films that plug its director on the poster in order to entice viewers. Just to clarify, this is not Old School. This movie has just helped lower the humour bar for 2009. It's only savings grace is that the comedies it's up against at the box office are equally, if not more so, terrible. Small consolation. The humour is forced, it's character development poor and the dialogue is banter. An example is the scene where the four men are driving down the highway on the way to Las Vegas and the bachelor party (about ten minutes into the film). Their discussion and jokes regarding marriage are so conventional, tired and recycled it could have been written by anyone. The irony is that you wouldn't even want to watch this film while hungover.
