I guess there just weren't enough middle-aged men who were able to drag their wives to this to make it a major hit.

I also saw a lot of ads for this. After watching the movie I even felt like I would have enjoyed it more if I didn't see so much of it already. I still really liked it but almost every moment that would have normally been a huge laugh for me I had already seen in commercials and trailers multiple times.
