"Jesse" (Ashton Kutcher) and "Chester" (Seann William Scott) wake up after a night of partying so hard they don't remember anything. They can't even remember where "Jesse" put his car.

Eventually, they discover that their adventures including taking a large sum of money from a transvestite stripper and trying to find extra-terrestrial technology. All the while, trying to get their twin girlfriends (Jennifer Garner, Marla Sokoloff) anniversary presents.

Let me say first that this is a really stupid, predictable movie. However, there are a lot of chuckle-worthy gags throughout the movie.

About 99% of the jokes, sight gags and oral, is completely predictable. They were mostly horribly set-up to the point that you see the joke coming seconds before it happens. The other 1% only produced a fairly good chuckle.

Character development, for the most part, is poor. All the characters are one-dimensional. However, the development of "Jesse" and "Chester" were uniquely laid out as we get to learn about them through the film.

The performances from the majority of the cast were pretty weak, mostly due to what they were given to work with in the script. I think that they knew they were given a horrible script and didn't put their all into it. It sounded to me like they were just repeating what was on the pages they were handed. If you ask me, Kutcher and Scott were the only ones that were believable in their roles.

The supporting cast was one of the weakest I've ever seen. These characters were very cliche, and were pretty forgetable. There was no substance in them at all. They were either just there, or used to poorly advance the plot.

Then there is the special effects. There are a few, and they aren't edited into scenes well at all. In fact, even though this movie is nearly a decade old, the special effects in the climax look as if they were two decades old, and didn't age well.

The soundtrack is pretty forgetable as well. I don't remember any piece of music in the entire movie. Nor do I remember if any songs in the movie were either classic tunes or covers of popular songs.

I would suggest that you skip this movie. Only see this on television if there is nothing else on and you are bored.

Strange movie. I think that this movie was going to be funnier, but the thing is that they have too many sex jokes, which it looks like is now "the new comedy", but I don't like it that way. There were some funny moments, but some others were just to plain and not as enjoyable. Average movie!

I have to admit that I hated the movie the first time I saw it. I mean, it was just so out in space. But, with each successive viewing, I found it to be more and more funny.

A good an entertaining movie about too stupid dudes will give you an hour and a half of enjoyment. You'll definitely enjoy watching this movie. Some may even think it's too much. But for me, it was a good movie.

  In the real audience with which I watched it, the only laughs were from kids under eight or nine, mostly at hilarious "hooter" jokes.
