I had the good fortune of seeing this in theaters upon release and I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard and that long at a film before😅

Ah the Surprise Film at the BFI London Film Festival 2011. Need to see Metropolitan.

Irritating in a fun way, like Step Brothers 😁

Funny movie, it of course was *meant* to be irritating, that’s why it’s so funny.
