Mean-spirited, desperate and unfunny
1.5/4 stars

An almost wholly mean-spirited and unfunny comedy with a premise that can only be humorous to 12-year-olds. One wonders why the parents put up with everything. The actors are all uncomfortable and over-the-top, and only a couple of the jokes work and the final half an hour is void of comedy which leaves a sour aftertaste. I have quite simply had it with Will Ferrell playing this same role over and over. Final Grade: D+
