The trailers may have fooled audiences into
believing, like the rest of his films, this is a laugh-fest. The
funniest bit in the theatrical trailer is nowhere to be found in
the film, as are other scenes too. One wonders if they were trimmed
for run time reasons (this clocks in very close to 2 hours), but
the decisions to have kept whatever made it to the theatrical cut,
were strange indeed because they were very tired jokes, recycling
some from Jack's past films, and most turned out to be terribly
expected, cliche and rancid.
