Funny. Over-written, but then, that was kind of the point. I mean, I liked it, but I couldn't help but notice that the only character in the whole movie who is really criticized is Jason Bateman's, the mid-thirties musician with a case of arrested development (coincidence? hm?) Why is it that in virtually all movies the mid-life guy who's still into horror movies and collecting music is shown to be shallow and maladjusted in the end? Really, Bateman's only sin is not being a famous musician: he's sold out and can only make music for commercials, so it's wrong of him to still be into music and movies the same way a teenager is. Also, Superbad was funnier.
But, whatever. Everyone laughed a lot and had a good time. Can't say that for every movie you see.
