Mine is an evil laugh

I want me 20 bucks back. My wife laughed once, which put her one up on me. I was almost not going to see this, because the reviews have been so critical. Bloody waste of a baby sitter opportunity.

When you take a book full of funny jokes and cut everything to leave a punchline, it is not funny anymore. What you are left with is a bunch of slapstick (which I personally don't find funny). Spoiler: Like when deep thought tells them the answer - with another 20 seconds of dragging out the computers hesitance, this would've been a much funnier scene

And if you need a love story to make a movie, then I don't think I want to go to the movies anymore - it really pisses me off that hollywood seem to have lost the ability to write a decent script without whiz bang special effects taking over - it seems that having fantastic exploding things makes it acceptable to write crap.
