Sooo glad I saw this Hamlet 2 for free. This was beyond awful. Who gives a good christ about it supposedly knocking christianity. "This movie was... ilarious from beginning to end! It does not make fun of Christianty. The focus is on Coogan's pathetic life and rediculous character which will have you rolling with laughter." Seriously? There were no funny moments in the film let alone entire scenes. The main character's life was tragic as in tragic-bad and not interesting or funny in a dark humor way. Lame, horrible script. What was Elizabeth Shue thinking? This film was far from hilarious or even funny from beginning to end. cd7503 you sound like a plant from the movie studio. Don't even waste your Netflix money on this dog. Full Review

Silly and irreverent at times, yes...but it was funny. I wasn't the only one laughing out loud in the theatre, either. I really enjoyed it.

I can't believe that I paid $10 to see this movie.. I nearly walked out, but didn't because my other half was with me and wanted to see how this... n wreck ended. Yes, there were funny bits, but in the end I was wondering who to write to in order to get my 2 hours back. Don't bother, it wasn't worth looking up the showtime to go see. Full Review
