Along Came Polly (Widescreen Edition) Reviews
Not what I'd expect from Stiller
If this movie were to be rated by Simon Cowell of American Idol he would probably call this movie, "forgetable." And it totally is. Jennifer Anistion is not that funny of a person. And Ben Stiller really lowered himself to do this movie. There are a few chuckles here and there, but the movie fails to hit its target. Its worth seeing once.
If you'll laugh at absolutely anything, then you may like this
This is your standard, generic, run-of-the mill comedy, with Ben Stiller doing his usual pratfalls etc. and Jennifer Anniston doing her best to look as unattractive as possible. Stiller marries some woman, they go to some tropical island for their honeymoon, he catches her having sex with some guy, and he goes back to New York depressed. Then he meets Polly, and they have absolutely nothing in common. They go through the usual problems (yawn), then at the end they sort of get together, I guess.
If you'll laugh at absolutely anything, I mean, if you still find knock-knock jokes hilarious, then you may find this amusing. Truthfully, it's a lousy, unfunny script, these people have absolutely no comedic sense, and the pratfalls and slapstick shenanigans all fall pretty much flat. There's nothing worse than watching a movie where you're sitting there thinking, "oh, that was supposed to be funny", and not laughing. Do you find it hilarious that a fat guy falls down on a freshly waxed floor, even though he obviously didn't slip or anything? Do you find it amusing when someone speaks in a really, REALLY thick accent so you can barely understand him? Are you left in stitches when someone asks their looney best friend to do a serious business presentation for them, and they act like a complete loon? I mean, come on. This crap was old when they were doing it on the Carol Burnett Show 30 years ago.
Anyhow, if you're completely satisfied just watching whatever lightweight, brainless fluff happens to be rolling across your television screen at any particular moment in time, then you'll probably be no more or less satisfied with this than anything else. It's probably better than reruns on the Cooking Channel, but only by the slimmest of margins.
