Rewatched this recently with my family. There is ALWAYS something happening, every moment there's a new, crazy thing going on. We were laughing constantly. We still quote "can we have pancakes tomorrow?" The Dig always gets me when he's eating his gigantic bag of weed. It's a wild movie, but incredibly entertaining. "Easy on the corns, Dr. Doolittle"

The Farrellys thought they could write There's Something About Mary all over again with a different cast. They failed.

Look, I'm not easily offended by every Farrelly produced raunch com of the 00s. And to say this offended me would be to give it more power than it deserves considering I had to seek it out off streaming and I had been perfectly happy the last 20 years forgetting it existed. But this movie just gets everything wrong, there is no hope for the souls of those who made it. It's just a mean movie. From the shallow ditzyness of Graham's character to the constant public shaming of Klein's soft boy archetype. Only idiocy and cruelty is allowed from any of these small town people. It's a sex raunch comedy that only sees sex as shameful. I'm from Indiana and even though I do find it funny that there is this mass misunderstanding about how backwards Indiana is, this movie goes out of its way to set the incest in the very real Shelbyville, IN before setting the rest of the movie in the very made up Beaver, OR. What's up with that? 2/10
