I liked the movie quite a bit. While less funny than his other movies, I felt it was a lot more consistent from beginning to end. I didn't get half way through this one and wonder why the movie was still going.
Lot of uncomfortable situations and setups. It was entertaining. I was really surprised that Cindy didn't setup Joel for a fall but I imagine additional exposure was bad.

I just stumbled across this on Netflix and watched it last night. I really liked this movie. Bateman is good at these suffering middle aged roles (don't miss him in Bad Words). This is a good movie for wife time. Mine chuckled repeatedly. I thought Affleck's character was funny and Mila Kunis looked really good. Gene Simmons looks like some weird living doll.
