Metacritic score of 85 for “universal acclaim”…I’m glad I’m in the universe.
Amusing side note: the official studio site was blocked by OpenDNS’s adult site blocking feature. Having seen the R-movie, I guess I’m not surprised, but it never occurred to me until I got the block page. Here at home, I just unblocked the “nudity” category, though, to view the site. You can check a site’s category for yourself with this domain checking tool. This new OpenDNS benefit we rolled out two weeks ago with St. Bernard has been very popular and very educational.
