Really, guys? I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm genuinely surprised you guys found the movie so hilarious. It wasn't a bad movie, but I found it thoroughly mediocre and everyone else I talked to about it thought the same. I guess people just have different taste or something.

I would see no reason to put any stock into a RT review for a movie that came out like 10 years before the website itself. The availability of reviews to catalog for a movie from that era has got to be extremely slim.
How can we teach children to read IF THEY CAN'T EVEN FIT INSIDE THE BUILDING?

I make sure to look at Rotten Tomatoes because it's usually about right
I weigh the overall percentage along with the reviewers I like and what kind of expectations I have for the movie
If I really want to see it 50% won't bother me
But most movies below that aren't worth $8 to see at the theater
my woman was doing a project on those freaky pro-anorexia people and she was telling me about how this one author who was studying them became bulimic and i used the "She can read minds?" line and she was out of breath from laughter for like five minutes
you have to say it with the most shocked and sincere face
I saw this back over new year's. It was pretty awesome and rather funny if you don't mind laughing at people slinging around slurs like they're candy. That being said Clint Eastwood has no sense of subtly whatsoever in his writing and that trailer basically condenses the whole movie down into 2 minutes. Completely.

towards the beginning when he yells "Cover me, ya limp dick fuckups!!" had us all in stitches
especially my dad, who probably had a sergeant like that when he was over there
for a comedy movie that's something
Rottentomatoes is pretty hit or miss.
But to be fair, anything rated above 80% tends to be actually good.
on the other hand Life Aquatic has a 52% on there so they can suck my dick
The site lost my vote as being very reliable when I noticed they gave a 22% rating to Hook.
tropic thunder was funny but disappointing overall when compared to stiller's opus "zoolander"
pineapple express was disappointing the first time i saw it
then for some reason i was on the floor the entirety of the second time i saw it.
but role models
oh role models
role models is so delightful and heartwarming and wonderful and paul rudd
one of the most hilarious and under-rated comedies ever
Put a cork in it, Zane!
I get where reviewers were coming from on that movie. I liked it but I am not prepared to say it is a great film.
I haven't seen it in years and I'll reference it at least once a week

I honestly liked Stiller better in Dodgeball.
"I WON THAT MATCH!
.....fucking Chuck Norris."
ben stiller is at his best when he's doing fucked up oddball comedy
his family friendly stuff can go to hell
meet the fokkers is probably the only Dustin Hoffman movie that isn't good
That's crazy talk Goatmon, crazy talk.
Also I laughed so much at Pineapple Express. Saul was excellent.
