I have enjoyed these stars in other films and was looking forward to an entertaining comedy. I happened to see this movie on Veteran's Day and along with the other 20 or so people laughed at some of the initial more benign humor. As the movie continued the laughter was replaced with whispers and silence and for me, disbelief as I resisted the urge to leave, hoping there would be something redeeming. Something worth my time, attention and money. There wasn't.

I was shocked and deeply saddened by the desparaging "humor" this film directs at our military. During a time when our country has soldiers serving and sacrificing their lives, the combination of overt political bias and inappropriate humor is disrespectful and shameful. I disagreed with the decision to go to war but I do support our soldiers and appreciate their committment to protect our country and uphold the freedoms many of us take for granted.

This movie was long, boring and very, very, uninteresting; if only I could somehow reclaim the two hours I wasted watching this film...
