If you like juvenile humor (a la Adam Sandler, Will Farrell, or... well, Kevin James) you'll like this movie. I intended to wait for it to come out on DVD, but it was a lot of fun to see on the big screen. Personally, I get enough drama, thrills & horror in everyday life & in the news. I just wanted to see something silly that made me laugh w/out having to think about it, & this movie delivered. Sure, the plot was weak & contrived, but it was a cute story. It ain't high art, folks, nor does it try to be; so if you need to see a "fine film" or an Academy-Award winner, just go see "that" kind of movie & don't try to compare the two. This movie does not misrepresent itself; it is simply a goofy, corny, cheesy, mindlessly entertaining movie.
