I saw it last night--and I must say, I enjoyed it. It was fun, and had funny moments. It wasn't totally stupid. It was nice to see Anna Faris playing something other than the incredibly stupid blonde. I didn't realize it was Eddie Izzard in the movie until about 4/5 the way through. The movie may have been a little predictable, but atleast it was fun. It didn't have any moments that put me to sleep (which almost every movie I've seen in the last few months has). What I mean is, the movie flowed very well.
Anyone else enjoy it? Hate it?
I love a lot of the people in the cast (Eddie, Anna, Uma) but this looked a little too stupid to shell out $8 to go see. Maybe I'll sneak in after going to see something else and do a double feature. Or I'll just wait until DVD.
I have heard it is quite funny. Next week it starts playing the $2.00 cinema in my hood. I will go.

How long has it been out? I was surprised when I walked into the theater and found out it was playing on one of the smaller screens.
I didn't want to pay 8 dollars for it. My friend offered to pay for part of it if I'd go--so I only paid 5
It just looks like one of those movies that would either be brilliant or completely horrendous. I think I'll wait til the DVD, even though Rainn Wilson would be reason enough to shell out my time and money.
My roommate and I went to see this on Sunday night and chose it because we hated everything else that was being offered at the theatre (You Me and Dupree, etc.) more, and we figured that Super Ex Girlfriend couldn't be that bad, right? Oh- we were so wrong.
I love Uma, I love Rainn Wilson, but this film was just...no words. Just bad. Not fun. Great concept, horribly flawed execution. It wasn't even fun in a mindless escapism fun (I like mindless fun- hell, I own Miss Congeniality on dvd :)), it was just...bad. Rent it if you must, but I would say stay away from it in the theatre.
