The Scene: After slick, suave businessman Mark King (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) is caught cheating by his wife Kate (Leslie Mann) with Carly (Cameron Diaz), the pair conspire with an additional mistress, Amber (Kate Upton), to wreak sweet, sweet revenge on their overly amourous suitor. Rather then merely publically embarrass him with a public triple-dumping in his office or something, they put hair removal cream in his shampoo, and most shockingly, dose his smoothies with estrogen, causing him to grow breasts, much to the trio's amusement. Why It Sucked: Getting revenge on some douchebag who cheated on you is all well and good, though once you get into the area of altering someone's body chemistry with potentially long-lasting side-effects, you begin to lose audience support (or at least should). Who really cares about the shampoo gag? That's fine, but to actually poison the guy just because he cheated (it's morally awful but hardly a crime) seems a tad overboard. As numerous critics have already commented, if the reverse movie were made, with three men poisoning a cheating woman, there would be universal outrage, but not here. Just awful.
