Ok so I'm not the biggest fan of Zac Efron. Not that I wish this
on his career, but his days are definitely numbered in the movie business. I
mean you seriously can't get far on just looks alone, which can fade rapidly, without
any strong acting abilities. But I guess that doesn't really matter much now
since Mr. Efron is still very pleasing on the eyes, making a little easier to
overlook his performance on camera ~shrugs. If the movie had only featured
Efron, I honestly think I would have passed, but thank goodness it didn't. I
thought the trailer was funny, mainly because Adam DeVine is a ham, with great
comedic delivery. I didn't have high expectations, but I did expect to laugh as
much as I did at the trailer.
Ok so I laughed...I'm not talking about
"Ha Ha" laughs, but tears rolling down your face laughs. Yeah this
mess was really kind of funny, and it had a lot to do with DeVine. Everything
he did was pure comedy. From facial expressions, body language, it was all on
point. Everyone else kind of just fell in line with him, or he made them
funnier. I must admit Efron wasn't annoying to me, but he still played the same
character he plays in most of his movies "the hot guy", which suits
him. I'm usually a fan of Anna Kendrick, but she seemed a bit out of place in
this movie...eh. I loved the couple Jeanie (Mike & Dave's sister) and Eric,
their dynamic was a different type of hilarious that only made the movie
better, as far as humor is concerned.
The movie wasn't exceptional, but I did
laugh hard, which is what I really wanted to do. Some of the actors were a
little too over the top, or seemed out of place, but they didn't have a chance
to ruin the movie because there are some great comedic performances to balance
it out...B-
