House Broken 2009


I guess this movie didn't get very good reviews from what I've read so far. It's supposed to be terrible and unfunny but I'd say otherwise. To me it wasn't as bad as 'Did you hear about the Morgans?' or 'Superbad'. This is actually a little more laughable than some other comedies which are better left alone.

Danny DeVito's days of comedies have taken a back seat and he is just mediocre here just as he was in 'When in Rome'. Two new comers, at least to me, Skyler Stone and Ryan Hansen (whom I only saw in Party Down) are two brothers who have overstayed their welcome in their parent's home. Their dad, Devito, finds a way to get them out and as you can imagine, all hell broke lose.

It's the kind of comedy that is built of disgust, sex jokes, idiocy, slapsticks and gay humor. If you're not offended by any of those than probably it's good for a few laughs here and there on a lazy day/night with nothing much to do but to relax that ol' gray matter.


6/10
