NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

ElijahCSkuggs Broken Lizard's first movie? Alright, I'm down for that. I'm not the biggest fan of Broken Lizard, as I think Super Troopers is kinda over-rated, and I'm a notorious fratboy hater…and this is a fratboy favorite. With that said, I also didn't care for Club Dread either. But Beerfest, I enjoyed quite a bit. I'm a sucker for OTT German antics, boozing, and Mo'nique, so it was just the right ingredients. One thing about the Broken Lizard crew is that they're always gungho in their comedy. They seem to always been on the same comedic page with one another, whether I like the jokes or not, and that's something I appreciate.Puddle Cruiser is basically a cliché college love story with a Broken Lizard style. The main story arc is boy has hots for girl, girl likes guy but already has a boyfriend. They try to make it work, but of course that doesn't work smoothly, blah blah blah. Then you have a couple side stories revolving around breaking in entering, 6 digit phone numbers and weirdo mail clerks, which all work nicely on their own.I gotta admit, I wasn't expecting much for this film. I was expecting the humor that the guys are known for, to be unpolished and much more in your face. But a lot of the jokes were handled well, and combined silly characters with some sly writing to bring home the laughs. Mind you, I don't laugh very often in most comedies, and this is no different, but the film has likability to it and enough quirkiness that made it a success.I've seen quite a few Broken Lizard fans bash this film…but they're probably just frat-boys who were simply expecting something similar to Super Troopers. In a way I like this more than Super Troopers as I really hate frat-boys. But I can also admit when I noticed something that didn't sit well with me. The writing during the relationship scenes, and the two leads in that relationship were kinda iffy. Not once was I really impressed with what they were dishing out. It was all pretty cliché and kind predictable.But like I said above, I hate frat-boys, and I thought this movie was a pretty good film. It won't be blowing your minds, but if you can have an open-mind, unlike robot frat-boys, and give this film a chance, you should come away enjoying it. I know I did. But of course, I hate frat-boys.

ravenwood80 Even though this is the first film by the broken lizard group, it's the last one I saw. Having mildly enjoyed Super Troopers, and managed to sit through the crap that is club dred and beerfest, I was surprised to hear they did an earlier film. Now i didn't sit down with high hopes, but was hoping for a funny campus romp. My friend asked me to keep in mind they are younger (obviously) and its their first foray into film. I did and was still disappointed. Not taking away the acting and comedy skills of the BL guys, they were OK. The whole film was tiresome, clichéd and frankly boring. Some of the other actors in the film were really poor at acting. And the Rugby game didn't even resemble rugby. Poor showing. They improved drastically with Super Troopers and have declined since. Lets hope they get back on form with Super Troopers 2

steaderjshuntz I rented this movie because the DVD cover made it look like it was going to be a ridiculous college comedy like van wilder or animal house. I took it to my friend house to watch for movie night. We ended up stopping it 15 minutes into the film, and watched Copper Mountain instead. I don't know if any of you have seen Copper Mountain, but it isn't great either. However, I would have to say that the Alan Thick Jim Carrey Duo made it a more enjoyable watch.I later finished Puddle Cruiser. This movie was slow and the humor was forced. This movie reminded me of some stinkers that I saw in some of my earlier production classes in college. I was left wondering "was this the film that enabled Broken Lizard to make Supertroopers?" Also how could this movie suck so bad? Supertroopers was good and Club Dread was decent. Don't see this movie!

dsoliman This movie was the worst movie I've ever seen. No story, no point, it wasn't even funny at all, not sure why people say this movie is hilarious because it sucked SO much!! Felix Bean the main character sucked. Susanna sucked. This movie was made in 1996 and it really was set in the 80s. What else, I'm never letting my friend pick movies ever again. Hmm, the movie cover said it was from the producers from super troopers, who kidnapped them and stole their identities. Wow, what a waste of time. The only minute thing that was funny was Freaky Ricky, he was funny, especially when he and Emily ended up together. That was funny. All and all, it sucked, waste of time and sleep. Wow, never thought a movie like this could be made, so dumb for watching for watching it to the end.
