My extended family watched this DVD this summer and the room had emptied out well before the movie was over. It is incredibly tedious, predictable and simple minded.
At first we got some laughs from how bad it was, but those laughs eventually turned to winces of pain from watching it. It plays into just about every possible stereotype there is and plays into each of them incredibly badly.
The actors were also blatantly type cast and lacked the ability to project anything but gross over-characterizations of their individual types. The gay guys were overly flamboyant, the straight guy sulked constantly, the obnoxious girl was always obnoxious and the fat people stayed fat.
There are not enough words to describe how bad this movie is. It is also not worth spending the time to do that.
Our family group that was watching presented a reasonably good demographic cross section as well: a couple of young teens, some older teens, parents, grandparents, single aunts and uncles, religious, agnostic, zen, etc.
Don't waste your time or money with this movie.
