Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

smatysia I avoided seeing this film for years, because I assumed that it would be juvenile and stupid. Well, it is all that of course, but I admit that it got more chuckles from me than the average comedy. I have never seen the cartoon that Parker and Stone are famous for, but was at least aware of it. I presume that the humor is similar. There were a lot of star cameos throughout. Many are quite silly, but that is clearly what Zucker, the director, was going for. And for all of the comments about bad acting by Yasmine Bleeth and Jenny McCarthy, the nature of the material dictated that it look that way. The best part was in the beginning with the message about sports commercialism and monstrous egos leading to the end of big league sports. Not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

SnoopyStyle The athletic world is full of corruption, apathy, and commercialism. Two childhood loser friends Joe Cooper (Trey Parker) and Doug Remer (Matt Stone) invent a hybrid sport at first to win against a couple of jocks. When it takes off in the neighborhood, a billionaire Ted Denslow (Ernest Borgnine) uses his vast wealth to spread it across the country.Trey Parker and Matt Stone are poor actors. They may write good jokes but they can't deliver them. This is a pretty good idea. There are some hilarious jokes. Sometimes they're even done well. But the two writers can't make it sing on the screen.The premise of over commercialism in sports is admirable. But it seems disingenuous when the money they use to build the game comes from somebody else. It's like a teenager railing against wall street when he hasn't worked a day in his life. If they kept it as a driveway game, it would be a lot better. Then when commercialism comes in, that's when the stadium comes into play.It's a nice interesting idea. The guys write some hilarious jokes. But it's not thought through all the way. And the guys are bad performers.

policy134 Most of the jokes in here are of the stupid variety. It could have been a funny movie but this is more miss than hit.It starts off well with a somewhat clever plot about then invention of a new game - a game of horse with baseball rules. Oh, and there is also the novelty of one player doing everything he can to psych the other player out, making him miss the target.From then on it turns into a parody of the old plot of greed vs. the love of the game. It is a pretty easy target but like in the game, the director gets psyched out and misses. There are too much emphasis on the division of the two friends, Remer and Coop, played by two less than stellar actors, Matt Stone and Trey Parker.I realise that I am probably in the minority here but just felt that the jokes fall flat too often, especially with Matt Stone, who plays his character as if he doesn't have a clue at all. Watch the reaction from Robert Vaughn whenever he tries to engage Stone in his shady deals. Peter Graves in Airplane said some pretty outrageous things too but it was played more straight. Stone comes off as a raving lunatic which I don't think was intentioned.As for Parker, he may have the right look for a movie actor, but he seriously lacks the talent and he is basically the whole show here. The supporting cast are left looking like idiots, basically letting Parker push them around. Yasmine Bleeth is particularly out of her league as a comedienne which of course makes Parker look like a genius. Ernest Borgnine is again embarrassed in a supporting part that gives him nothing to do but look stupid. I haven't seen an Oscar-winning actor sink so low as he has done again and again, in movie after movie.Do you think you will get a laugh? Maybe once or twice, but this is definitely a movie that should have been heavily rewritten and they should have replaced Parker and Stone.
