It's hardly funny because the humor is either set up wrong or it's too extreme to find funny. The only really extreme humor in this movie is in the beginning when children are playing spin the bottle. What are so extreme about that scene are there some children that look 8 or 9 talking about very sexual actions with other children in the closet as the part of the game. I wish I didn't have to say anything like that, but that's what happens in the movie. Thankfully it doesn't show any of the children have sexual contact with each other, just talking about it.

That's not the only flawed about this film, there's a lot more than just that. I hated how the characters are developed and I also hated that there wasn't any plot and that the story was very childish in this film. That's what I hated the most in this.

Charlie (Dane Cook) loves to fool around with women (if you know what I mean) and hangs out with his best friend Stu (Dan Fogler) that is a fat midget and is very annoying. Charlie whines too much about not having a relationship with a woman. Then comes along Cam (Jessica Alba) that works at the zoo feeding penguins, but is clumsy and cases disasters.

Then suddenly Charlie and Cam fall in love and later acts like he sick for some reason while he's fooling around with other women behind her back. After play sick for a while Charlie gets this idea that Cam is falling in love with another guy. So Charlie acts like someone that worries about everything trying to act be there happy thinking nobody will know what's wrong with that person.

He then thinks that the reason why all the girls he's tried to have relationships is that he was cursed as a child from a gothic girl in his childhood. So he goes and tries to solve the curse.

I'll explain why I hated how badly the characters are developed. Charlie whines about not having a relationship so much and once he meets Cam he starts worrying too much about nothing acts embarrassing around Cam, singing songs with Mexicans and thinks he's making Cam happy when he's actually embarrassing her.

Cam is a smart person, but she cases disasters (as I said) trying to make the character create some slapstick jokes, but they aren't funny and it those really make any sense. You'd expect a dumb blonde to do something like that. That makes sense if she dumb, but having a smart woman do it doesn't feel the same.

I think Dane Cook and Jessica Alba are the problem with their characters. They have terrible acting in this film, and I wish to never see Dane Cook and Jessica Alba work together in a film ever again.
