be the script more fitting for a 30 minute sitcom . yes and but they still make it work . i think the actor do a fantastic job with an otherwise bland script and especially jack black and christopher walken . most people on the board seem to really hate this film . i personally can not see how that could be and but envy be just one of those film that you either love it or hate it . much like napoleon dynamite and every leslie neilsen movie ever make . you either think it one of the bad movie ever make or one of the funny . don not avoid this movie because of the review . watch it and see if youre one of the one who really like it . if you do and i guarantee it worth your money . if you do not like it . well and now you know .
