This was just okay. Not the worst but nothing to get excited about. I expected more or better from it based on the way it was first described to me, and from the actual start of it. It was far too long and dragged out for what it was. This should not have been a 2 hour movie. Some of the kind of humor used felt too forced. It felt like they were going for something that they didn't quite manage. It felt "overdone." It just didn't hit the mark for me. There weren't nearly enough funny moments to ever bother watching it again, not even casually or distractedly.

**Disclaimer:** [spoiler]I watched this on a special anniversary. I remember worrying beforehand about what type of movie we'd watch on the big day because I didn't want to "tarnish" it in any way and I didn't want to look back on it and be disappointed or regretful; certainly not because of something small like a film. But it also didn't feel small to me; the little details matter to me. I wanted to keep the day feeling special all around as much as possible. Well, one of my main hopes was that we'd not watch something with a bunch of tits in it. I am battling with severe insecurities and I thought it'd be easy enough to avoid that. The brief description of the movie sounded safe (because a movie full of the brand name Google should be, no?) but it was very much not. It was like the worst possible scenario I had genuinely been worried about in my head for days, that I didn't want happening _at least_ just that one day; but I figured I had to be being silly and there was no way it was **that** big of a reasonable worry, well, that worry came true, big time. And we were already so far into it and it was already happening and it couldn't be undone. It was really hard and I didn't want to talk about my upset even though I'm working on doing so when and as it happens, because I didn't want to spend even more time making the day feel tainted, and all because of **my** "stupid" insecurities. I just wanted to move on as quickly as possible. Those scenes were not short, not for someone who desperately wanted them to end. (Turns out there are 2 versions and of fucking course I ended up watching the one that would affect me worst.)[/spoiler]

[spoiler]So, while I believe I'm able to logically separate those personal emotions from how I felt about the movie otherwise and outside those parts; there's your full disclosure on how I felt about it in whole, and also why. Hell, maybe someone else out there can relate and it'll help to hear they're not the only one struggling in that way.[/spoiler]
