My favorite line delivered by Jamie Fox while meeting with the three perps. Lotsa funny stuff....more so than I was ever expecting. Sure, this is light-weight, simple, and stupid, but it's so great to hear Jennifer Anniston talk dirty. (She is a sport.) The film is edited for quick action so it's difficult to pick a time to jettison or refill.

Christophe Waltz runs Batemen, Sudekis, and Day out of business in order to take over their new company. After much anger and frustration they plot to kidnap Pine to extract enough ransom to cover losses. Pine becomes aware of the plot and takes it over in order to punish dad (Waltz). Crazy ensues.

The sex addict meeting is probably the comedy highlight of the film with Anniston's language and Bateman's usual uptight-whitey priggishness.

Waltz, Anniston and Spacey give excellent cameos that help to spike the punch. This film carries some A, A-, and B+ talent which is just the thing to carry off the sequel and prime the pump for number three. Be sure and check it out on cable if you're in the mood for some laughs and mind numbing entertainment.
