Hilarious One-Liners, Poor Plot Line

There were some great one-liners in this movie, Steve Carrell at his best! However, the plot line was not all that interesting and it dragged at times. Overall though, I would recommend this movie because there is some great humor.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I was really looking forward to this one. I knew it would be a stupid kind of comedy, but for the most part it was just stupid. I did laugh out loud a handful of times, but the funny moments were brief and spread out over a terrible movie script. It seems like there was no thought put into plot or creativity. More like "Let's just put Steve in awkward and unbelievable situations and hope it's funny." I had high hopes, but it was choppy, extremely uncomfortable, and lacking any real creativity.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This was awful...a few funny spots, but not many, kind of painful to endure. And more crude than I expected - must have followed the "if you can't be funny, just be crude". Shocked that Steve Carrell was associated with this.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

The movie was exactly what I expected. It was funny with an interesting title that wasn't really the focus of the film. It was more like Steve Carrell and Paul Rudd playing equally great characters. Should have been titled "My Friend Barry, Cable Guy's Brother". Overall good movie. Had me laughing through most of it.

Anyone who wrote a bad review of this movie just needs to stay at home and watch reruns of Masterpiece Theater. This was a totally fun diversion that at times had me gasping for air while I was laughing at full tilt. At some point you just put your hands up in the air thinking that this is the most rediculous movie ever - then you go back to laughing your ass off.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Most of this movie I found myself sitting there extremely uncomfortable and wondering why other people were laughing. As someone who likes many of the other movies with these actors, I was disappointed to find that it wasn't nearly as amusing. Multiple people walked out, and I found myself wanting to do the same.

A very funny, well written comedy that avoids the pitfalls of most comedies ("serious" scenes, cheap laughs, weak plots, etc). Steve Carell is at his comic best, and Paul Rudd holds his own at every turn. The supporting cast does well in supporting our stars with their own hilarious characterisation and banter, especially Zach Galifianakis, whose genius shines through even when he has nothing much to say.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

In a world full of cynics, I'm with the fools. Professional critics blasted this movie for being predictable. Frankly what Hollywood fare isn't? It's how you get there that counts. This is Carell's movie and he makes his character, "Barry" endearing. From the Beatles' song at the beginning to how Rudd's character reacts to Barry, there's just enough empathy to keep the movie from being mean-spirited. Good comedies that can keep a consistent tone are hard to come by. This one achieves that and enough laughs to make it worthwhile.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Can you say, “overkill”?
The writers of this screenplay decided the only way to make this boring, one-joke story work was to fill it with so many gags and gaffs that the audience wouldn’t notice. They didn’t. Most of their eyes glazed over within the first thirty minutes. Imagine elaborating on Dumb and Dumber to the point that you couldn’t stand it.
It is a shameful waste of outstanding comic talent which ends up being buried beneath a pile of “what stupid thing can we throw in next?”. The only interesting, if idiotic, sequences are of the elaborate dead mouse dioramas (which should give you some idea of the caliber of the rest of the film).
No, I do not recommend this movie.
