Maybe Dane will have more input into his next comedy movie.

I actually think he might have made a better romantic lead, than Dane - who was somehow off-putting. The only likable person was the guy playing Jessica's brother (Lonny Ross of "30 Rock").

You feel like the movie needs a sorbet after one of his scenes to get the bad taste out of your mouth. The sidekick is so foul and obnoxious he throws the movie completely off-balance. There were a lot of gross-out moments that just weren't funny - the fat sidekick scrubbing his backflap with a scrub-brush for sexual pleasure, a penguin eating his crap, two seduction scenes with obese women (straight out of "Norbit" - also unfunny). (Him dressed in a penguin costume? Yikes.) The two leads try SO hard to show us they have chemistry (a lot of shoulder wiggling and cutesy facial expressions mostly) that it backfires. When he's doing the written parts of the script, it clunks hard. The only funny moments seem to be when Dane is improvising. If you're hoping to see Jessica be funny - what are you, nuts? She's got no comedy chops! And that old tired "pretty girl falls down a lot" shtick wasn't funny when it became a movie cliché about 5 years ago. If you're hoping to see Dane be as funny as he is in his stand-up - you'll be disappointed. If you're hoping to see Jessica Alba undressed - too bad! Scanty attire is the best you'll get. He strips more in this movie than Demi Moore in "Striptease". If you're hoping to see Dane Cook (nearly) undressed, you won't be disappointed. If 3 out of every 10 jokes working is enough for you, then go ahead.
