Robert Downey Jr. is trying to get home to his pregnant wife, but he runs into Zach Galifianakis.
I saw this at the video store, and thought to myself, "Hey, I forgot this movie existed. Why does nobody talk about it?"
Answer: Because it sucks.
Downey is Downey, and is perfectly fine, although at times, the script tries to make him seem flustered, but it comes off as unlikeable and/or stupid. It's not Downey's fault. It's a bad script.
Zach is once again a weird loser, and could honestly be the guy from The Hangover, but the script takes him from sad, lovable goof to picture of tragedy.
Seriously, someone set out to make an odd couple type of comedy, and made it way, way too dramatic.
Jamie Fox makes a poorly conceived cameo, which feels mostly racist. I didn't understand why he was in it at all.
Overall, there are some chuckles, and don't blame the actors, but this movie is bad. Actually, not so much bad, as it's lacking in humor...
