I found this movie engaging and amusing. I must say, though, I am surprised at the degree of extreme enthusiasm being voiced by many of the people who have placed comments.
The keyword for me was that this movie, more than anything, AMUSED me. Yes, there were some laugh out loud scenes, but not in any great abundance, and certainly not enough to earn this movie the status of a "great" comedy.
There were a few major scenes, each of which delivered, on average 1 to 2 (2 is generous) good laughs. Certainly you could do worse than that when watching a comedy, but I would be curious to see where other people were so overwhelmed with laughter while watching this when i found myself often content but bordering underwhelmed.
Oh I have to say though - the ending was perfect
