What a strange movie. It has a queer plot and the characters are what make it funny. Jack Black is hilarious! In one scene, Jack Black is so upset about something that he jumps on the hood of Ben Stiller's car (while he's in it) and starts sobbing! Also, Jack Black and his whole family are obsessed with flan (a fancy dessert dish) and there are couple weird scenes involving it. When Nick Vanderpark (Jack Black) comes up with another one of his crazy ideas for an invention, his best friend/neighbor/co-worker Tim Dingman (Ben Stiller) doesn't encourage or invest in the idea. However, Nick actually invents it and becomes a millionaire! So during the whole movie, Tim is attacked by the green-eyed monster of jealousy.

This movie was hilarious because of Jack Black and Christopher Walken. I love the actors and the characters they play. The plot in this movie is interesting, but I wish there had been at least a clue as to how Dimitriov (Manny Kleinmuntz) and Nick Vanderpark (Jack Black) were able to create the doggie-poo-disappearing 'Vapoorize'. I also liked seeing Amy Poehler (playing Nick Vanderpark's wife), but I like her much better in Saturday Night Live. Anyways, I thought this movie was pretty good and I don't know why so many people thought it was terrible.

I have not seen this movie in a long time, so bare with me, people. From what I remember, it was a pretty funny movie, and the acting was very good. 'Vapoorize' was... odd, but it made sense, sort of. This movie can now be found for pretty cheap, so stop reading and go get it!
