Welllll, as funny as the review was at times, the lads were off on a few things with this one - not that they give a shit I'm sure! But maybe a quick Google search on the details of both the content of the novel and the story behind the movie's journey to production would have helped a bit. Anyway, what do you guys think? Do you agree/disagree with Jay and Mike on this one?
