If … Like I said, the only interesting parts of the movie are the internal debates on what constitutes obscene material and just what it is willing to do or not do, but most of the time, the movie just drags its feet across the line for no purpose at all but to be shocking.

I'm sure that there are those who like to feel sorry for themselves who may not like it but I think it was a breath of fresh air in the stale comedy world we have become. 19 out of 40 found this helpful No twists, no turns, no story, no plot.

The movie fails to realize the difference between dirty jokes and offensive jokes; dirty jokes are basically humor directed at misunderstandings of human vices and stigmas, such as drinking and sex. The pre-credit sequence is a girl that sings the national anthem, but the joke is that her singing is off-key.
