Why Him? is another in a long line of American comedies that has a great central idea, a top-notch cast and a woefully underdeveloped script that substitutes swearing for actual jokes. The film does have some very funny moments (Megan Mullally's stoned attempt at seduction, Bryan Cranston battling a Japanese automated toilet), but these are largely wrought by the skill of the performers rather than the writing. This film clearly had real potential, but it is not fully realised by what is on offer here.
