"Halle Berry...box-office star" Mon Mar-18-13 12:00 PM by Basaglia
Steve Carrell...poison (and it bombed because there wasn't enough jim dogg to carry it...that's not my opinion, that's the fact's opinion)
there was no way in hell i was lettin this slide after all the hate halle got over the years, combined with the unwarranted cysage of that guy. he ruined jim dogg's franchise and he ruined what could have been a great movie with his horrible comedic acting. NOPE! i don't care that he's a good guy. ALL the wayans are good guys. y'all say they suck tho.
jim dogg bout to take his spot back with KA2 and dumb and dumber. Da Gawd gonna show all these dudes how to do this.

Based on the previews I thought this movie looked horrible, but what I've been hearing over the weekend is it's the sort of comedy you want to be watching at home on Netflix, absentmindedly doing some other task. And that it'd be perfect for that 'cause Carrey and Carrell cut it up, but Buscemi just doesn't have good enough material to do what he does (you know, ACT, because he's not a natural comedian obviously) and the story loses the plot in all the gags.

back in the day. I got no idea what she's about other than she's pretty, smart and has a cool family (right? feel like that got mentioned on the Daily Show)

In real life, from interviews I've seen and whatnot, he comes off as a complete stiff with very little personality. Dude was just on Conan a few nights ago acting like a robot.
He's basically Jason Bateman, I'll buy that, but he's a great straight man. And his most iconic comedic characters have played on that by turning the straight man into the idiot. That's what made Brick Tamland so genius to me. He was the straight man in the group but that meant he couldn't express himself at all in the bizarro world that Will and Adam created.

And he played Frasier Crane forever and was Sideshow Bob.
I think Carrell is a good comedic actor but not a comic. He's not a guy you can put in a crap movie and he'll make it funnier with his performance. And his often muted style might actually make some of his movies less funny than if a more outwardly funny actor took the role.
He's most certainly not a leading man but, in the right role, he can give a great performance. He's just not a guy that I necessarily think owns any roles.

It was refreshing to see a black female carry a movie for once. And she was a strong female character at that. Also good to see a good black cop for once who has a large role and doesn't die.
