I am of the opinion that it is the funniest movie I have seen all year. Possibly the funniest thing since The Hangover (the first one).

definitely recommend this one!

I saw it last night and laughed my ass off. There were some great cameos in it as well. I highly recommend it.

This is one of those rare movies that looks to be as good or better than the commercials you see on tv.

I may wind up going to see it, but in my lifetime I've more likely been my boss's nightmare rather than having a bad boss.

Everyone here at work went to see it on opening weekend. I wonder if that says anything about the guy we work for. (Here's a hint: it does...)

I love the drag racing Prius bit in the commercials, when he says, "I don't win often" I lose it, absolutely hilarious...

Saw it, liked it.
Rather low-brow but funny. Pretty crude in a few places.
Seemed rather "formula written" in alignment with The Hangover.
I especially liked the "Aniston in the tub" sceen.
My one thought was that Ron White looked really old and really bad.

I had already decided to see this movie this evening and you had to go and post this. If it's in the same league as that award winning documentary called Hangover 2 then why waste my money?

It was WAY better than Hangover 2. I have not laughed out loud this hard in years.

Cancelled our plans to see it on the basis of the posts by jrw1621 and NickF40. We're staying in and watching stuff we've got DVR'd.

If it's anything at all along the same humor types as Hangover II there's no reason to waste money.

This forum saves us money in many ways. Go GRM!

nope. seriously funny.

there are some vulgar language scenes, and there is even a character named motherberkeleyer jones, but it is much more intelligent humor than Hangover II.

My guess is that the bathroom toothbrush is part of that more intelligent humor.

I didn't say it was intelligent. I said it was more intelligent than the Hangover II.

BIG difference.

Though the dustbuster full of cocaine made me almost pee myself.

BTW, there are days that I want to do that to MY boss' bathroom. pretty much any day that ends in "day".

Comparing any movie to Hangover II is a bad idea. Hangover II is a (first ever?) example of badge engineering by Hollywood. You have to admit it though, they had a lot of balls releasing a sequel that was almost exactly the same movie as the first one... sort of a mad libs version if you will.

Shocking though, is the fact that they actually made a sequel to Planet of the Apes.... arghh

I'd argue that badge engineering may predate the automotive variety.

sounds like a good flick to see, probably better than Mr Poppers Penguins, anyway.

I believe that it is a PREQUAL, so that makes it acceptable.

But it has James Franco in it, so that makes it unacceptable.

I wana see rise of the planet of the apes. As far as Mr. Popper, the last thing I need is Jim Carry pissing all over another favorite childhood book.

There was a sequel to the original POTA - "Beyond the Planet of the Apes".

It still featured humans sweating in fur-covered suits but, at least, it had a sweating babe in something like a fur-covered suit.
