Am I the only one that enjoyed this movie?
I don't get the harsh criticism. I thought it was hilarious.

shareHumor is subjective... but yes, you're in the minority, just like the people that like Fred: the Movie.
Seriously, check out this thread:

Trolling is subjective... but yes, you're in the minority, just like the people that troll IMDB forums.

There are people that are going to like this movie. That's fine. But I think any reasonable person that is informed in the least when it comes to how well this movie has generally been received should be able to conclude that they are in fact in the minority and the consensus says this movie was not good at all.
That's not trolling... that's just the facts. Just because someone states something you don't like and/or disagrees with you does NOT make them a troll. Mindlessly calling people on the internet "trolls," however... CAN be legitimately considered trolling someone... so congratulations on that.
Having said all that, if you happen to be the minority opinion that found enjoyment from this movie then bully for you... just please realize that you're doing a disservice to others when you possibly suggest that they should also "give this movie a chance," as it seems MUCH more likely than not that they will not in fact enjoy this movie.
I mean, if you go to "Jack and Jill" here on IMDB then you'll see someone stating that they enjoyed THAT movie:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0810913/board/nest/204322072?ref_=tt_bd_2
That's fine. Good for him... as long as he's not trying to get other people to watch the movie because odds suggest strongly that someone's NOT going to like "Jack and Jill" - whatever our personal opinions about the movie may be.
Now, anyone walking into that particular thread might think the movie is possibly worth watching (the thread seems to be where some of the small percentage that enjoyed the movie decided to voice their opinions afterall)... and MAYBE they'll even enjoy it themselves. MAYBE. But most people that watch "Jack and Jill" would tell you that they really wish they hadn't and would rather have been poked in the eye.
Most people that watched this movie would at least have to think about whether or not they would have rather been poked in the eye...
And for the record, I think the greatest movie that has ever been made is "Synecdoche, New York." Do I think everyone should watch it? Nope. I definitely don't think the movie is for everyone and can concede that my personal tastes aren't shared by a lot of people. I literally think it is the greatest film of all-time (greater than Godfather II even) and would not recommend it to most people. In the same vein, I wouldn't discourage most people from watching any movies from the Transformers franchise even though I think they are absolutely terrible and "unwatchable." A lot of people like that stuff. Fine. Whatever.
But to the question of "Am I the only one that enjoyed this movie?" Well... you're not the only one... but you're definitely in the minority. Once again, that's not what I think is my opinion... that's the only reasonable answer that I think a reasonable person can give here.
But all "bad movies" tend to have a thread where others want to congregate with a shared (and minority) opinion that the movie was actually much better than most have stated it to be. I only want to offer a voice of reason here and state that despite any of your personal opinions... the majority seems to heavily disagree with you and have decided that this movie is in fact not good at all. Sorry.

reese saves every movie , sofie vergera kills every movie.
shareI loved it! I laughed the entire time and found it much more enjoyable than a lot of the comedies in recent years.
shareI love it!
shareEasy to watch. Is a good phrase. Today my life was out of control and unhappy. This movie helped me forget everything.
Isn't this why we watch movies? For escape?
I liked, not loved it.
shareAbsolutely retched movie.
I'd rather spend the day having infected boils lanced off my ass than sit through this again...which is what put the boils on my ass in the first place.
The jokes were desperate and sloppy.
Nothing clever, nothing shocking, nothing funny just absolute garbage.
The movie looks like the dialog was improvised by the actors and director from one scene to another.
Actors aren't typically intelligent or creative they're just good at lying and taking direction.
This movie is so bad these people should be fired from acting.
Think about it.
If this was your performance at any other job your ass would be fired and you wouldn't have a good reference to get a job in the same field again.
I loved Reese Witherspoon in this movie. She is really funny. I was very suprised by his much I enjoyed this movie. It was funny.
