I thought the early parts of 1st act was so-so, mainly due to the main 2 characters not being all that interesting or funny, but as the film rolls on, and we get introduced to the 3 other members of the main cast, it did get funnier to me (and the 5 other people in the theater with me - yes, I doubt it's going to make a lot at the box office), and there are parts towards the tail end of the 2nd act that just slayed me, I was crying from laughing so hard, and then the 3rd act was pretty silly, but still funny.
Jurgen Prochnow is in the film, and they got off a few "das boot" jokes for his presence in the film. There was one such joke that only I got, but funny nonetheless.
I think it's going to find a longer life on DVD, but I think it'll be a classic of sorts down the line with the 18-30 male demographic because it's pretty funny with decent pacing as to not bore the audience. Of course, if you are not apt to drink, a lot of beer-guzzling humor probably won't make you laugh.
I give it 2.75 stars or a grade of B-.
