Based on a true story, TAG was definitely a lot of fun. If you want to turn your
mind off for a spell; buy a ticket to see this movie. Let me warn you, there are
some sexually suggestive scenes, no nudity, but a lot of cursing, drug use (mostly
Pot) and a lot of hilarity. So if you take any kids, they should be 13 and over.

This is a movie about guys never growing up (there's a joke here, but I'll
refrain from using it), but there's room for the ladies. Isla Fisher plays Ed Helms enthusiastic wife and she's hilarious using broad physical, as well as verbal comedy. Basically it's one of the few trailers that actually describes what takes place in the movie. Childhood friends continually play TAG well into their adulthood, but only one member has never been "it."

So they plot to tag that one guy who always manages to escape by hook or by crook.
It doesn't get any simpler than that. You watch as a bunch of middle-aged guys
chase each other in a hilarious game of TAG. Actually, it's the chemistry between
the guys and gals that make's this little movie fun. To me it looked like they had a ball making this movie. Now, do all the jokes hit their mark? No. Are they funny? a mild yes in some instances and a belly-laughing yes in others. But generally, it's FUN. A light-hearted, no superheroes, no politics romp that has you giggling, guffawing and saying "that's stoopid" chuckling almost from
the very beginning.

Two more questions: Will it win an Oscar, no (but who cares?); Will it tickle
your funny bone? Yes. Well for an hour and forty five minutes I sat in the
air-conditioned comfort of my local theater and laughed with about 200 other
people. So yeah, I had a good time.
