Tina Fey and Steve Carell lift up material that doesn't give them the quality of writing and directing they deserve. There really isn't anything more to be said about the movie. It's too long for the material and gets incredibly repetitive but coasts along just barely on the charms of the lead performers. This easily would have been a direct to DVD release had it not featured so many stars with box office power. I'm not saying it doesn't have a few enjoyable moments sprinkled in, but there's so much mediocre writing/ gags that they drag down the movie. I'm sort of getting sick of all these action romantic comedies that Hollywood keeps throwing out. They are of consistently mediocre quality
