The humor, for the most part, didn't flow from the story. Yeah there were some parts, like Sam's initial awkwardness around Megan Fox's character, that really worked because they were believable and relevant to what was going on.
But for the most part, that wasn't the case. Most of the humor was inconsistent with the nature of the characters: "My bad", "Wassup bitches", John Turturro's snippy government agent, Anthony Anderson's wisecracking ethnic person, the whole masturbation bit, and Frenzy's jar-jar-ness. The movie would have worked just as well, probably even better, without all that forced humor. You can jump through hoops to say how X joke justified Y cause, but in the end this is bad comedy.

According to you. I hate the way people have to tell others what is good or bad comedy. Why is your opinion better than the rest of us. I admit there was too much comedy, but do you have to be the defining word on what works in a movie?
