Jack Black tries to give his usual obnoxious type some sweetness, but fails miserably. He plays a loser who decides to boost attendance at his 20th high school reunion by getting the school's coolest guy (James Marsden) to come back from LA,Jack Black tries to give his usual obnoxious type some sweetness, but fails miserably. He plays a loser who decides to boost attendance at his 20th high school reunion by getting the school's coolest guy (James Marsden) to come back from LA, where he's a "successful" actor. What had potential for humor gets darker and darker until it's just uncomfortable and mean. Black never creates a likable person, which makes his plight even more desperate. Marsden doesn't mine any of the satirical potential in his character's arrogance. No humor. No sympathy. Just a "Train" wreck. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you truly must watch a film to feel uncomfortable this is the movie to see. Blacks character gets f#@led up the a$$ in this heart warming film, and his entire high school 40th reunion finds out, his wife finds out, his children find out. EWW Expand
