This movie is a 5/5 in my book, had great action, so much hilarity that it's impossible to explain. IMO this beats out pineapple express. RDJ made this movie for me, masterful.

Definitely worth the money, I didn't anything that was blatantly bad, looking forward to others' opinions.

I have been waiting for months to see this and I think I'll probably end up going Friday hopefully. I just read a quick review in the newspaper as well and the reviewer was calling this Ben Stiller's magnum opus! I don't know if its that good, but the movie just looks drop dead funny.

People really take things way too seriously...it's a satire, if we sanitized and cleaned everything up there would be no more satire, and the majority of comedy would go right into the crapper, which would be horrible...i don't understand why people get up in arms about this...they are making fun of the people who do movies about disabled people solely for oscar bait...

It is a quote from the movie which is played a lot on tv trailers... :p

OK. Haven't seen any TV trailers for his movie, seen a couple of clips and it is very hard to see RDJ under the make up.

      It's not about the kids, it's about de-anonymizing the entire internet to punish people for wrongthink. The only way to ban kids, is to demand ID from everyone, a digital ID if you will.

      There was a Spider-Man game back in the day that had these as well. When other people played, they got gamer ads. When I played, I got ads for Visual Studio on the billboards in the city.
