Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

This film does a good job in adapting Dave Barry's satirical observations on the foibles of the male gender and creates a funny gem of an independent film. Although women would surely see the truth and humor in this film, men would also find it funny.John Cleese, Dave Barry, and Dan Marino all give memorable performances in this film.The tongue-in-cheek humor and the episodic skits are reminiscent of "Hollywood Shuffle."Those familiar with Barry's many books will find the handling of this film true to his brand of humor.

I was sitting about two thirds of the way back, on the right side. Occasionally something happened that made the sound go weird, but I really liked this movie. It wasn't like everything else you see out there, and I give it a lot of credit for that. I liked how they brought the two couples in and out a lot, and I think they could have used them even more. The Dan Marino thing was hilarious, and I liked the bits with the repair guy. And the thing about the fictional baseball player, I always liked running gags like that.It was fun to see a movie that didn't do things the usual way. I get tired of these cookie- cutter formula deals. I'm not saying everything worked, because not all the jokes came off the way they probably wanted them to. But the majority of the scenes were really good.I didn't know a lot about Dave Barry but after this movie I am definitely a fan. I was grinning the whole way through it and laughing out loud more than once.

Last night I watched the world premiere of this movie at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. While it made me chuckle several times, it just didn't seem to be very cohesive. I tended to enjoy the bits set in the modern day versus the silly caveman scenes. Though I am a big fan of John Cleese, his scenes didn't do much for me in this movie. One my favorite bits was Dan Marino explaining proper urinal etiquette. I think that was one of problems, it was more just a collection of bits than a complete movie. Some of the scenes were tied together, but it didn't seem to flow very well. With a $17.50 ticket price for this 72 minute film, I didn't feel I got my money's worth.** (out of 4)

...this is a wretched film. I was at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival and I would have booed or shouted crap at the screen but the director and stars were there. I know that they may be reading this but I do not care--I am a Dave Barry fan and I want to protect fellow fans from seeing this film (I guess you can call it a film). Please Please do not watch it for any reason. Stick with your books--this movie will ruin them. It looks like the pilot episode of a TV show with horrible acting and an awful sound design. I know the budget was small, but a talented writer/director should have received these funds and made a completely different movie.God awful...honestly.
