MGS is not supposed to be funny. Kojima admitted himself in an interview that if he could he would go back and edit out a lot of the in jokes and humour of the series to keep the narrative focus grounded in a more serious tone. MGS tells a serious tale and is meant to educate viewers, the jokes were just a bonus and never meant to be central.
Also people complaining about the lack of gameplay, if you have a problem with deep storylines why even play MGS4? Go back to playing pong or tetris or something. Millions obviously enjoy the hours of cinematics and the storyline plays a far more important role than the gameplay in this particular franchise.
