Just saw this. Not incredible, but some very funny moments. Typical Gervais' stammering style of delivery, not really all that different from David Brent or Andy Millman. LOTS of great cameos, including...

Spoiler: show
Edward Norton as a traffic cop with a coke habit (who did a great accent, didn't even realize it was him til he took his sunglasses off), Jason Bateman as a very blunt doctor, and Tina Fey as Gervais' secretary

The first 30 minutes was fucking great. The second thirty minutes was okay, lopsided but still different enough to be fun in an Idiocracy kinda way, the last thirty minutes was generic romantic comedy drivel.

Fun film, anyway.
