Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
djgold_1999 Tom Hank's BIG beyond weak.......but this movie isn't.I'd like for someone to explain to me, what's so horrible about this movie? It's a perfect cast. Hilarious movie. Has enormous amount of replay value. Oh I forgot, Tom Hanks, isn't in it.Movies are to entertain an audience so, people don't turn into weak minded drug addicts or into alcoholics. If something can put a smile on my face and make me laugh, most likely it'll make me "primative", because the movie, didn't make much money or have big name stars in it.Someone with no funny bone in their body or who doesn't like women, wouldn't like this movie. It's a "feel good" movie, when you want to "break something", but have a positive mind to cut this on your DVD player.Pure Classic, enough said.
patrickwlangille I wouldn't say that it's the worst spoof movie, it does have some humor that some people may find overused though. There's a lot of sex jokes and jokes about sexuality. Doesn't make up for recent movies of the genre. On Youtube there are these really dumb promos with this ridiculously large breasted cheerleader who's obviously a future porn star. It didn't bring up any hype for the movie though, not even when she made out with her friend who's basically her only blonde. If you care, you just search "cheer confessions" it's utter gibberish to what she is talking about. Thank God this wasn't the work of the two writer's of scary movie, let's hope that they'll be better parodies or they at least wait a few years before they bring these movies out because they just show that Hollywood is running out of ideas.
niceguy_1981 When I first saw the previews for this movie on TV I thought that this could be a funny movie. I was wrong. All though I am not totally against movies that make fun of others. Some are actually funny such as the first scary movie. This was one of many that have been made as of late that are not. The humor in this film was anything but funny and was rather dull.I feel the one of the biggest problems is that they poked fun at to many movies such as Varsity Blues, Friday Night Lights, Stick it, etc. And if you are anything like me you try to pick out each movie instead of paying attention to whats going on in this one. Even the adult humor in this movie was dry. Do yourself a favor and save you money and time and rent don't rent this movie
titolee06 As you know, movies such as Date Movie, Epic Movie, Meet The Spartans, etc. are coming out and doing well in the box office for like a week and then they fall off the grid. Why? Well the answer is simple...the movie is freaking retarded. I mean come on, a movie based on spoofs from another movie would sound like it might produce a few laughs, but I think many agree that we laughed at first and then never watched them again. They could just never click because the writers are probably some drunk college kids who said one night after taking a massive hit from their bong, "DUDE!! I GOT IT!! LETS, LIKE, MAKE A MOVIE...OFF ANOTHER MOVIE!!!" and then voilà, we have crap on the screen yet again.This movie is no different. Except for the fact that when I laughed, my laugher's were meaningful. I laughed for a least 30 seconds and not just a quick giggle. This movie did pretty well on its spoofs but at many times it was just so unrealistic that it really downed the potential this movie may have had. Some of the timing didn't match, and you know I could go on forever but I'll just stop and say if you really have nothing else better to do, then maybe just give this a watch and laugh a little and then move on with your life. A rental may suffice but don't buy it.
