WOW is all I have to say. I read most of the (negative) reviews and everyone hating on Will and Amy but I'm unclear what everyone expects - from Will and Amy?! THIS film was their type of comedy - stupid enjoyable fun, and they finally pulled it off to perfection! I want to be clear, although a fan, I'm not a huge fan of either, but they nailed their roles and the comedy in this film that they redeemed themselves and I am now a huge fan of both! Nothing Amy has done in the past has ever made me laugh until now. This is finally the comedy from Will that I've been waiting for from his earlier days.

A bunch of us went to see this and we were in stitches and crying in laughter - and no, we were not drunk or high! This is the funniest comedy I've seen this year and for that matter in a long time.

It was very well written and directed and actually had an entertaining (and for a change) different type of story. All the actors were on point!

Props to everyone involved! I really wish I could find out from all you 'supposedly' Will fans what more you all expected?

It's the perfect comedy and if anyone thinks this is a fake review, check out my over 300 reviews and hundreds of ratings!

A perfect 10/10 from me and I hope there is a part 2 very soon!

Scott (Will Ferrell) and Kate Johansen (Amy Poehler) are happy to have their daughter Alex accepted into college. When a corrupt politician takes away the scholarship, the couple is desperate to give their only daughter her college dream. Their neighbor friend Frank (Jason Mantzoukas) is a degenerate gambler desperate to save his marriage. He convinces the Johansens to run a casino out of his suburban home.

The start is fine. Ferrell and Poehler are dipping into their broad SNL skill set. I want to like this more but something is holding me back. There are a few chuckle worthy moments but I don't really love these characters. There is a possibility of a funny side story with daughter trying to figure out her parents' secret but they give the three girls limited time. There is also an unnecessary villain when Nick Kroll is a perfectly sleazy villain all by himself. All in all, I don't love these characters and that's important in a comedy like this.

Scott (Will Ferrell) and Kate (Amy Poehler) feel they are obligated to pay for their daughter (Ryan Simpkins) to attend college. Along with their friend Frank, (Jason Mantzoukas) they opt to open a secret casino in town rather than choose normal options.

Much of the humor was slap stick and some ridiculous behavior by our adult couple. Will Ferrell was his usual boring self. Amy Poehler has certainly done better, being reduced to stupid lines like, "Check your marshmallows" one the many "jokes" that failed. The writing lacked any hint of cleverness and relied on the stars to bring it home, which they didn't. Should be available at a large discount very soon.
