Not funny whatsoever. My vote for the worst comedy of the year. A waste of time and money. if you like watching losers spit on food, this is for you.

Anyone posting here saying that "the critics don't understand because they have never worked in the restaurant industry" is sorely missing the point of how poor a movie this really is. Before any of you Applebee's waiters can jump Anyone posting here saying that "the critics don't understand because they have never worked in the restaurant industry" is sorely missing the point of how poor a movie this really is. Before any of you Applebee's waiters can jump all over me for not getting it, you should know that I worked in a fine-dining restaurant for the last 2.5 years to help put myself through school. This movie is filled with low-brow humor, blatant homophobia, poorly-delivered jokes, and undeveloped, simplistic characters. I understand the desire to watch something stupid and funny, but that type of movie is easy enough to find; don't waste your time/money watching "Waiting."… Expand

I expect the same people who like this movie to be the same people who think Hostel is more of a masterpiece than Brokeback Mountain and teen's who only know 45 states.

The NY Times said it right, "Putrid comic stew". I laughed one time, "Welcome to the Thunderdome, bitch". Their, I saved you time and money.

Bad, bad, bad, and more bad. Cliched humor at its best. I wanted to leave with 10 minutes remaning, but my girlfriend and her stupid restuarant friends would not let me. The idea does have so much potential, but it was done in a completely Bad, bad, bad, and more bad. Cliched humor at its best. I wanted to leave with 10 minutes remaning, but my girlfriend and her stupid restuarant friends would not let me. The idea does have so much potential, but it was done in a completely wrong way. Should have taken some money away from casting and hired some real writers. To the comparison to Kevin Smith - I love Smith's movies and if he ever were to put out something like this I would burn all my Smith DVDs and urinate on them. Jersey Girl was bad, but this is on a different level of bad.… Expand

First of all, Ive worked in the restaurant industry similar to this for six years. This movie does portray the relationships generated in the industry very well.

This movie does portray the relationships generated in the industry very well. However, seeing this done with poor jokes, uninteresting characters, and absolutly trash production, is a painful experience. These simple minded jokes clearly "get the job done" for the pre-teen audience. Ryan Reynolds completes this turd of a movie with the same character hes done in countless movies/sitcoms before this. The bottom line is that the jokes were not funny, and the characters were not developed. I agree this movie does have potential, but it does nothing with it. Dont worry if you dont catch this one on theaters, I'm sure it will be on comedy central battling for times slots against Corky Romano for years to come.… Expand

First of all, don't ever say industry. My 20 year old brother is going to see this. He loves these movies. Why? I do not know. Maybe it's for the fashion tips.

If you worked at a restaurant like this, you might give it a 2 or a 3. This movie was God awful. Everything about this movie was cliche, even the name of the place they work at. Their are two scenery locations in the entire movie. Their is If you worked at a restaurant like this, you might give it a 2 or a 3. This movie was God awful. Everything about this movie was cliche, even the name of the place they work at. Their are two scenery locations in the entire movie. Their is no major plot. The acting is horrible. Im a fan of tge crude joke, dont get me wrong, but these are not funny. I laughed about 4-5 times the entire movie. If you worked at a restuarant, enjoy cliches, bad acting, bad production and are half retarded, you may enjoy this movie. For the rest of you, stay away. Stay very far away.… Expand

Мне даже очень нравятся пошлые комедии, тот же "Борат", к примеру. Но "Waiting..." вообще не смешной, слишком тупой, не в меру мерзкий фильм.
