At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

National Lampoon's Gold Diggers was good, and I do understand why everyone does hate it, but not THIS much.When I look at movie posters it really looks interesting and always makes me want to watch it. This poster was really descent, but the ratings and reviews was absolute terrible. So I thought to myself, this movie doesn't look bad so I went to check it out. It DOES have a lot of bad errors (the big snake scene, some of the fantasy's, and the ending). But still its good, but don't expect too much out of it.6/10

the plot line of this movie offered great promise. it made me think a couple of stupid guys marrying some old hags that going to be funny, gross but funny. But like almost all recent national lampoon movies save for Van Wilder this movie lets your expectations down. That doesn't mean that this movie doesn't have its funny moments but those moments, and especially the end leave you with the feeling, That Could Have Been Funnier. the movie also lacks the bevy of bikini clad and unclad beauties that most national lampoons movies have. Nikki is a hottie though but she isn't enough to increase the ratings. all in all a good movie if you cant think of anything else, but it cant be called THE last resort, its like the movie you take before you opt for something worse like Jason X or something.

Some friends and I were at Blockbuster over the weekend. None of us could agree on what film to see. We decided that no one was in the mood for anything really heavy or intellectual. Just some stupid movie to have a few laughs and possibly a few beers to. All of us had seen the really Obvious comedies or big films that you rent from the new release wall as defaults when you're in the mood to just watch some film that you don't have to think about with friends. So we saw the box for GOLDDIGGERS and thought "there are hot chicks on the cover, that kid from American PIE and BOY MEETS WORLD are in it. Its a national lampoon film. I'm sure it will provide some amusingly crude dick and fart jokes and occasional shots of tits and be on par with EURO-Trip as one of those utterly stupid films that you can just pop in and let your brain rust, chuckle occasionally, and kill an hour and a half of your night." Seriously, this film makes Eurotrip seem academy award worthy. The screenplay isn't even worth picking apart. It is failed joke after failed joke after failed joke. And then, it becomes entirely disgusting. And not Cameron Dias with Cum in her hair SOMETHING ABOUT MARY disgusting where its FUNNY. this was just disgusting. The basic premise of the film is that these 2 young screw ups try to seduce 2 elderly women. You can already guess how disgusting the sexual interactions already are.And I wasn't expecting much from this film. I was really looking for 2 things: 1. Boobs. 2. Laughs.1. The boobs were old and disgusting and by the time it got to cuter girls, I was already thuroughly disgusted 2. Few and far between and mostly at the fact that I actually shelled out 4 dollars to rent this piece of theatrical donk.So note to all: don't bother renting stupid comedies that you've never head of and are shorter than 90 minutes or star c-list actors. Generally, there's a reason you've never heard of it. Did this even get a theatrical release? I would hope not.

Overall I enjoyed the movie a lot. I thought the characters and situations were funny. Has a little Nickalodian humor with an adult twist. One thing that I didn't like though is watching these old ladies all movie when there was a hot girl on the cover they were trying to advertise and barely even showed her in the movie. But that of course is a pretty lame reason to dislike a movie unless the cover is what help intrigue you into watching it in the first place. I got a lot of good laughs in this movie however. The absolute worst part of the movie that I think turns everyone off is the ending. No twist, no irony, just a simple "and they lived happily ever after" ending. If this movie had a better ending I think most people would score it higher. So if you just want some good laughs and don't care about crappy endings, this movie is for you.
