This movie is unbelievable!! My kids wanted to see this so I decided to let them . We all went to see it and left during the middle of it . It was very violent and language was horrible . He got very drunk in one part , he gets hit with a skateboard and falls through a tall window . I don't think it's a kids movie at all!! Sex was extreme too . Not even for adults .

You should preview this movie before letting your child see it.
This movie was fun for me and my husband to watch...but not my children. I made a bad parenting move by not checking out Common Sense Media before letting my 11 yr. old buy this movie today. As we watched it, I was mortified by the drinking scene. I didn't like the bad language and violence either but that she knows better about. The drinking was to me the worst part...my child is entering middle school. This is the age when they are very likely going to be confronted with this issue. I need positive role models who show my child that getting drunk is not fun or funny. This movie had the potential to be a great movie for tweens. You don't need the bad language and alcohol to make a movie funny. When is Hollywood going to get this?!

Awful awful awful movie!!!!!
Awful movie. Couldn't watch the whole thing. Bored and didn't laugh at all. My 10 yr old daughter did finish it but didn't laugh either. Was basically a toned down action movie for tweens. Made fun of fat people, had information about hypoglycemia all wrong and no laughs (well I chuckled once truth be told). Too much violence, too much insulting of fat people and boring!

Should Be PG-13
I went to go see this movie with my son who is 13 and we both thought it was a good movie with a nice moral at the end. However i felt it should've been PG-13 due to all the violence in it. There were also some sex jokes that didnt need to be there and the scene where he got drunk wasnt very funny. Better for older kids

You should think twice before going with your kids
This movie was VERY inappropriate I would NEVER take my kids to see it again! My 17 year old daughter was shaking in fear at all the violence. She had to run out of the theater in the middle of it because it was so scary. My 15 year old son was laughing at the beginning, but his laugh quickly turned to a scowl as he saw how bad the cop was treated and how there was an explosian trying to kill the cop. I bitterly regret taking my kids to see this movie and only mature adults should see it. I honestly think this movie should be rated R. Parents are CRAZY for taking their kids to see this movie!

Typical
This is just another one of those slapstick "Look at that loser he's so funny" movies that the character finds some ridiculous purpose on accident. The dialogue is pretty boring. The only redeeming aspect is the physical comedy.

Hilarious
This was a funny movie. It should be rated ten plus. There is a scene of victoria secret and a woman's blouse is lifted up and you can see her bra. There are a couple of words here and there but not that bad. Made my 10 year old laugh his head off and I do not regret taking him. You should definattely see this movie.
