The movie premise was a bit weird, but I found myself laughing a LOT. Carrell and Rudd play very well off each other. Carrell plays a great schmuck... After the movie, my husband and I kept laughing and saying to each other, "Remember that part where....?" and we'd both start laughing. The writing included places for out-loud laughter, but the story idea was not that believable. This is the kind of movie you go to if you feel like laughing and don't care to get too concerned with the plot.
