Anyone see "Ladies First" starring Sacha Baron Cohen?

I was a bit disappointed in it. I'm a big fan of his and was expecting it to be laugh out loud funny. It was really predictable and mildly amusing. What a letdown.

But not worth suffering through a mediocre movie to see her performance.

It tried to upend gender stereotypes and ended up reinforcing them. Some clever bits but not ROFL funny.
