You can't help feeling that the whole project must have begun as an off-the-cuff joke which some studio executive took seriously and greenlighted.

I was bored well before the end, but found the first half hour pretty funny.

Their incessant, obscene banter is meant to be endearing; their total lack of presence makes it simply annoying.

What kind of movie is it where Yasmine Bleeth is the best thing about it?

The vulgar, obvious humor of Zucker brother David and South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone elicits easy, guilty laughs, yet the material has an underlying innocence that's just shy of good clean fun.
