A little more tweaking for the actual actor's voices to come through, instead of trying to put them into pre-concieved places, may have worked better, but on the whole, it's still an excellent example of how the ensemble comedy should work.

The only scene in which the audience noticeably reacted to the film's efforts to extract some belly laughs came in the depressingly derivative poo jokes.

...a perfectly watchable piece of work...

A funny film, but it's not one that I found myself growing passionate about as I watched.

I like this new one mainly because of the cast.

What we end up with here is the most pointless remake since Gus Van Sant made his shot-for-shot remake of "Psycho" back in 1998.

Rock's interventions can't compensate for excessive fealty to dumb gags.

Although it still only just gets away with sundry homophobic and size-ist gags, there's a tad more zing than the original, though if you caught that already, be warned: this is a scene-for-scene retread.

If the film is so close to the original as to also be pretty much disposable once its over, at least it as well serves up a healthy amount of laughs during its very brief and brisk run time.

I like the cast.

So much sameness, yet so fewer laughs.

While it isn't a shot-for-shot replica, certainly no one can accuse Hollywood of dumbing things down here.
