Because Will Ferrell seems to follow the same formula in every movie, and it's getting old. His character always starts out as a seemingly normal person who slowly but surely shows that he's a completely ridiculous fool. All he does for half of the movie is make a stupid remark, have mood swings that we're supposed to believe are real, or try to act normal and do a horrible job of it.

And by the time I left the theater, I could only remember one thing that made me laugh from the entire movie, and that was the look on Mark Wahlberg's face when he first saw Sheila.


Will Ferrell used to be a genius, in movies like Old School, Elf, and Anchorman. But since then, it just feels like he keeps making movies because he doesn't have anything else to do.

I hate to say it, but Will Ferrell is going the same way as Adam Sandler and Chris Rock.
