Hm. I only expected it to be funny. That’s not too much to ask of a comedy, is it? I think the cast probably did the best they could with what they were given. A movie about ping pong with Christopher Walken has the potential for greatness. But the quality of most of the jokes only ranged from lame to mildly amusing. Don’t go into this expecting the ping pong equivalent of Blades of Glory or Dodgeball (both of which I enjoyed much more than this). Not recommended.
