Great review! Something held me back from seeing this when it was in the theaters...the trailers were pretty lame, and it did poorly at the box office. i was still on the fence about paying my 6 dollar fine to rent this puppy, but now you've made me sure to rent this (and you also taught me responsibility!) thanks, Justin!

I really didn't care for it, but I didn't like Van Wilder on the first viewing either but now i really like it. Great review Justin

I have to agree with eatmyshorts on the bad trailers.
But having read the review I'll put it on my To See list. Comedy seems to be the one type of movie that I tend to agree with Justin's reviews on. Progress!

I agree, Justin's review has made me want to see this now. I was afraid it was another bad "Ryan Reynolds squanders his talent and abs" movie, but now I'm stoked!

I liked your review Justin...but I gotta say it made me feel a twinge of guilt...
I liked the movie in general, but I thought the amount of pain outweighed the reward in the end. That was my only criticism of the film. The more Ryan Reynolds movies the better!

I finally got around to seeing this and was not disappointed. Thanks, Justin! The only thing I found distracting was goodness gracious, did they film the thing around the corner from the Corner Gas set or something? I counted 3 Corner Gas cast members and I wasn't even paying that much attention.

Awesome! Rock on! Now you just got to rent and see Accepted, Eurotrip, Out Cold, She's The Man, and Freaked. This, I command.

Not to put my Christmas bonus in jeopardy or anything, but please don't see Freaked. Please. You see it on the shelf and it looks like there's no way this movie could fail- Alex Winter. Randy Quaid. Deep Roy. Mr T in drag. Keanu Reeves as a dogboy. Yet it somehow manages to just be a miserable experience in every respect. I'd review it but I really don't want to sit through it again

Actually, I did see Accepted partly on the basis of your recommendation, Justin. I didn't make the connection that Mr. "Ask me about my weiner" was the same kid as in Superbad until just a few days ago. That was driving me mad.
