Always liked Drew Barrymore's movies, but this one was/is the exception. The so-called comedy parts were just so over the top that they disgusted me instead of making me laugh. Finally turned off the movie when it got to the lost notebook. Just too much to take. It seems as if any Ben Stiller movie takes situations and turns them into such outrageous attempts at comedy that it makes you feel as if you are watching a small child's afternoon show; trying to keep the watcher entertained with 'gag' after 'gag'... and after 45 minutes of this movie, that's exactly what I did.

I even gave this movie a second chance and made it to the one hour mark where they try to sabotage the old lady's apartment - then turned it off again for the final time.
