Tina Fey and Steve Carell were great, when they were allowed to do so. Every now and then the director would let you see that Fey and Carell are very funny in their own right. Unfortunately, the plot, straight from the 1980's, is so ridiculous that you will have a hard time waiting for the next moment of comedic brilliance. The movie "almost" works, in spite of itself. How the director conned Ray Liotta into this, I'll never know. Good cast, few laughs here and there, horrible, horrible, horrible story. Luckily its less than an hour and a half long, because you can't wait for it to end.
Of all the movies I've seen this year, this was definitely one of them. It was a drawn out lesson on how to make vampires and werewolves boring by Stephanie Meyers. Borderline cheesy special effects and horrible acting (or directing) make this watchable only to true Twilight readers and fans. Even for a tween movie there is a ridiculous amount of moping and staring. Either Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson can't act, or the director won't let them.
