This was a pretty good movie. It's something with John C. Reilly and Will Ferrell that when they say anything, it's just funny. This isn't the best Apatow film, but it is good and funny, definitely not a waste of time and you will find yourself quoting this movie, like all the other Apatow films. Don't go into it expecting 40 year old virgin quality, but similar to anchorman and Talladega Nights in its humor. The story could have been developed better, but saying that it's not as good as Talladega Nights misrepresents the movie, because all of his (Apatow's) films are funny and consist of the same type of humor. If you're older, i definitely wouldn't recommend watching this with your young children, or if you are easily offended because there is a lot of swear words. But i do highly recommend this movie, enjoy!

I was forced to watch this in one of my college classes, big surprise. For me, i thought that this film was horrible. This is not a documentary because it doesn't give both sides of the issue, that's what "big noise films" is known for. If you are a radical-liberal, socialist and/or are studying social movements and uprisings, then there is a good chance you will like it. The film shows social uprisings in impoverished areas of horrible countries. It is framed in the classic propaganda fashion, by using violent/moving images, words, and taking quotes out of context, among other things. So when you watch this, be thinking or remembering that there are two sides to the argument, and that most people in the world want to be in this country. Also be ready to see some pretty messed up images.
