How many times did you laugh?


Me? I had a smirk once... To be honest this doesn't deserve the Comedy tag. Let's just have the Crime and Mystery!

When the manager says he was part of a Chevy Chase congregation of a Greek orthodox church.
When Tilda asks if there's blood in the stool and George's reaction.
When Brad is shot.
The Dildo chair. WTH?

Otherwise this wasn't funny, just offbeat.

I've caught it on TV many times and had it on in the background while messing around the internet, it happens to be on in the background right now. I've found on repeated viewings there are many funny moments, the absurdity of it all is quite funny, it's just missing something to tie it all together, like a nice rug.

I agree. Didn't see the comedy in it at all. Not one single laugh. Very disappointing. I'm a big Clooney and Pitt fan, but this movie was awful.
