I only went to see this movie because of the Farrelly Brothers' involvement (I loved There's Something About Mary). I'm so glad I did! This movie is truly, honestly funny, and not only in a juvenile way. Of course, being written by who it was, it does have its share of pot jokes and 4-letter-word induced chuckles. Alec Baldwin gives a wonderful performance as a crusty dad, and Shawn Hatosy proves that he isn't just another average teeny bopper movie actor. This movie is a must see for anyone who enjoyed such movies as The Breakfast Club or Fast Times at Ridgemont High, but its appeal won't be lost on those who prefer deeper movies (dare I even say "heartwarming"?). Go see this movie -- you will laugh, you might cry, and you will certainly enjoy it.
