I rented this one thinking it might be a light, fun romantic comedy. I should have known better. I’m not a Dane Cook fan and this just cements my opinion that he is just not funny. Not only is this movie not funny, it’s often just plain gross. I suspect Dane Cook agreed to do this movie because he got to be in about 50 sex scenes with naked women. Just scene after scene, like an endless wave of naked Dane Cook coming to ruin your day. No thanks. And I’m really not a fan of Jessica Alba either. Just not that interesting at all.
It was directed by Mark Helfrich who has had a long career as a film editor and this is his first time directing. Unfortunately I found the whole movie’s style rather generic and uninspired. It could have been directed by anybody. Might want to go back to editing, Mark.
So basically this movie had nothing going for it. It was not funny, way too much Dane Cook nakedness, and the “plot” was pretty weak and pointless. This falls into the category of “how do movies like this get made?” Avoid it as much as possible.
