One of the most overrated comedies EVER!!!

In the summer of 2008, there were two comedies that had quite a lot of hype surrounding them. Tropic Thunder and Pineapple Express. I saw Tropic Thunder that summer and I fucking loved it! I didn't see Pineapple Express but I sure did hear a shit load of people telling me "OMG Dude!! You have to see this movie!! It's the funniest movie ever!!!" Well, I finally saw the movie on DVD with my folks and....oh boy....this has to be one of the least funniest, most boring, most overrated movies I have EVER seen.
Don't you just hate it when everyone gets so crazy about a movie and you're the odd man out who hates the goddamn thing? A lot of you might just be saying "Oh, you just don't get it. This isn't the comedy for you. You have no sense of humor!" Oh trust me, I have a sense of humor. But the people who made this movie obviously don't. Ok, ok, maybe I chuckled once or twice, but the movie is just so uneven.
What do I mean by "uneven"? Well, the movie mixes a blend of subtle and over the top humor and a bunch of one-liners. It tried mixing all these styles of comedy together and it failed epicly! The humor was so uneven. It just didn't know what it was trying to be. An overrated mess. Don't bother.
