This one is pretty good. A good cast, good dialog between characters, and just enough zaniness that reminds me of The Secret of My Success to pull it together. I give it 3 out 5. 3.5 if I’ve been drinking.

This one sucks worse than the deepest, darkest black hole. Avoid it at all costs. I’m not sure how my TV didn’t kill itself in despair to escape having to present it to me, even on fast-forward. Weak plot, poor characters, no chemistry, stupid ending. I give it a minus eleventy-billion out of 5. Those are neurons I’ll never get back, but maybe I can kill them by drinking heavily.
