Movie review

From Time Out London

Meet cute? More like fuck angry. Romantic comedies don’t get more toxic than this depressing stew of cock jokes, pussy insults and cesspool declarations of love. Self-loathing lothario Tank (Dane Cook) is hired by brokenhearted weenies to wreak emotional terrorism on their exes and drive the unhappy couples back together again. When his closest friend (Jason Biggs) becomes a client, Tank finds himself falling for the target (Kate Hudson). Oddly enough, the asshole gets the girl. And the nice guy? Screw him – he’s a pussy.
