Had to go see this with my wife, was honestly disappointed that it wasn't as bad as the first.
The first one was so bad that the theater was constantly laughing out loud at it, and I was able to enjoy it on a "I can't believe someone actually wrote this dialog" kind of level.

This one was just boring. A bunch of stuff just sort of happens with the plot never really going anywhere.

For example towards the end of the movie there's part where the guy gets in a helicopter crash. Followed by the girl finding out, and then a scene of everyone watching the news being all worried, then he shows up like "Hey guys, I'm fine, lol" - and that's literally it. It doesn't have anything to do with anything else or lead to any character development - it's literally there just to (try) to add something resembling dramatic tension

Depressing number of the day: 148,291,623. That's how many US dollars people have paid to go see this movie in four days.

Is it even worth renting for some, uh, 'alone time'? :D
The Lego Batman Movie is probably more arousing.

I saw it with my girlfriend. I guess it did its job seeing as how she kept getting all hot and bothered, but then again she's very impressionable; I can't even let her watch TV without having to cancel 2 fast food orders, and a Lexus lease after every commercial break.

Stupid helicopter crash was there for the age old practice of: "OMG, you almost died!!!Lets get married before it's too late!!!" I was disappointed I was reading reviews in the middle of the movie and had a helicopter crashing "spoiled" for me, I was hoping it would at least be something interesting/funny like crazy stalker girl shooting a RPG at it, or some kind of sabatoge by rapist boss or cougar Dom. I would actually be looking forward to a sequel if they have all their stupid 1 dimensional villains team up and try to break them up. Yah got: friend zone dude, rapist boss, cougar dom, crazy stalker sub, random picture taking/burning guy, annnnd.... abusive stepmom(?) That'd be some great stupid fun.
