MacGruber!

[Kyrillian]

I finally got the chance to see MacGruber and thought it was pretty funny. I can see why it bombed though. The target audience is really the guy who like 30+ who has fond memories of the cheesy 80's action movies in all their one-liner and montage-y glory. However the movie seemed to be marketed to the younger demographic that would typically wait in line for tickets to a Will Ferrall movie.

It wasn't as funny as I thought it would be but I definitely don't regret taking the time to watch it. There were a couple moments I laughed out loud and also a couple of very quotable lines.

I would give it a 3/5, maybe a 3.5 out of 5. If I had to choose between this and Date Night, I'd easily choose MacGruber.

lol you saw this
when i watched the SNL with betty white i thought the mac gruber skits were the worst piles of crap i had seen in a long time. i didn't even giggle. i think like 8 out of 10 times SNL fails anymore anyways.
