A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The story is just another common one about a person struggle to get his needs and dreams and doing everything he could but to no avail. The little things are somewhat hilarious, despite very predictable. The bigger picture of the story however, doesn't really bind well between its pieces. They all seem like a forcefully strewn montage of pieces of uncorrelated stories. The focus characters are way too stretched with having all the other supporting roles, yet they are not developed well enough to see the real essence of the character's core characteristics. One thing good though, is the presence of the twists, although again as predictable as they are. The acting is just another average. Jason Lee doesn't act his face well, it seemed like he's trying to hard with other aspects of his act but forgot about facial expressions. So did happen in the case of Tom Green, but luckily the way Tom speaks out his dialog is quite funny already. Leslie Mann is also did an average performance and quite not been able to be funny herself.

This film was conceived to be stupid and it made it. It is... stupid! I don't mean by this it hasn't its moments of fun, it certainly does, but if we analyze them they are just... stupid humor! The entire film is based in this concept which is by the way the Tom Green's method to do comedy. He looks stupid, he behaves stupid, so he does stupid humor being basically...stupid! The film has a lot of stars, very well known actors with nice careers; all of them subjugated to the stupid methods of Tom Green to do comedy. As told I think the movie has a few funny scenes which made me laugh, but they aren't enough to compensate the rest which is pure stupidity! I score it 3/10 because of the few funny jokes.

Stealing Harvard (2002) Also Known As: Say Uncle (USA) (working title) Stealing Stanford (USA) (working title) The Promise (USA) (working title) Uncle (USA) (working title) You Promised (USA) (working title) MPAA: Rated PG-13 for crude and sexual humor, language and drug references.This movie is the birth of Earl from the hit TV show My Name is Earl. If you love Earl--Jason Lee; you'll love this movie. Tom Green adds to the mix...and don't forget to watch the outtakes after the credits roll. Jason is clean-shaved in this movie...but he's Earl through and through.

Some people might be surprise at the rating here "why it is so low?", Don't be – the movie is worsen than you think.I like senseless movie but this let me down so bad. Everything about this movie is so lame. The suppose to be funny movie is such a waste of time. There are no funny scenes here, just a bunch of stupid joke from Tom Green, and it is not even close to funny.He and Jason is the only things that sell this movie other wise there nothing to be looking forward to.Synopsis: It such a total waste of time. Don't watch it.Rating: 4/10 (Grade: F)
