[C]haracters go through dramatic arcs for no apparent reason. You can virtually hear the "Try that... it'll be funny" conversation happening before every gag. All of that would be almost acceptable if the movie was funny in any way. But it is really, really unfunny.
I have to go back to A Man Apart to find a movie as sloppy, arrogant and disastrously unwatchable as Kicking & Screaming. And here's the part where I remind you that I like stupid family comedies with a lot of physical schtick. The film isn't even a too-long SNL sketch.
View at your own peril, or better still, wait for Star Wars, which National Review already says is "unbelivably bad."
