Saw it on a coach, I fondly remembered Young Einstein and it hitting at the right moment, this just felt a bit tired in execution, I know the film is coming from a good place, and maybe the plot would of worked if it had more going beneath the surface instead of everything being a setup for the next gag, the "deer in a headlights" performances can be charming but it wore thin pretty quickly.
Production value was pretty decent though and I can't fault them for not trying.
The characters overall varied and they did not cut corners on sets and production design.
The writing was just bad, I think it needed a way better plot, I wanted to like it but I maybe laughed one time while he was digging around in the pit, needs an edit maybe it could work better, its an interesting production all the same, if any credit could be given it would be for trying to be original with an old premise in an Australian setting.
Run time was to long and getting through the story felt badly paced, I really think and edit on a montage or two maybe with a good Crowded House tune might have helped to charm it along better not sure what would have worked but it felt like it had a lot of the right ingedients it was just badly put together, maybe they did not know what they had in the edit, but what they ended up with sadly was a bit meh.

Mr. Accident is a deliberate series of non-stop disasters and near death experiences reminiscent of Saturday Morning's Warner Brothers Cartoons. Like the coyote who falls off the cliff 5 times per episode, the "leading man" (more like an over grown klutzy child) always manages to postpone his meeting with the Grimm Reaper.
This Australian "surprise" is offensively unfunny, and at times even depressing. The 2 (out of ten) are is for the visual stunts (some never attempted by anyone since Daffy Duck) and the use of vivid colors (like in those high class national laundry detergent commercials).
There may be an age bracket where this "comedy" finds a following. I have definitely passed that age long ago. Calling all preteens: Here's a "ha-ha" for ya!

I remember back in 1988 when "Young Einstein" came out and Yahoo Serious came onto the big screen. That was a classic Yahoo Serious movie. This one had it's moments, but overall lacked a consistant storyline. It jumped from place to place. All though Aussies loved this move, the US has been luke warm to it. Rock on Yahoo Serious!

I know everyone said this movie was utter crap and I agree with them. I spent a few years after seeing it telling other people it was crap. I recommended they not see it. But when it came on TV, we saw the ad. I turned to family and said: "I know this is sad, but I'm thinking of watching it". My sister turned to me and said: "Yeah, me too." And you know what? It was funny.
By no means is this a good movie. It's absolutely a waste of time. But it's a good waste of time. You may still think it's crap and fair enough, but I thought it was a really funny slapstick comedy. I didn't like a couple of bits, like when the fish got hit by the car, but apart from that I thought it was good. I loved sitting there and picking out all the famous Australian faces: Flacco, Elle McFeast, Garry McDonald etc.
So, if you like to waste your time, watch this movie. Otherwise, see a drama or something.

I love how this movie was so stupid, it was good. Yahoo Serious is an incredible actor, and I love his accent. He was so clumsy, he reminded me of myself, and that made me love him even more. The movie was good in the fact that the main character was good. He was not like some of the other movies where the main character is a drug-dealer, or alcoholic, or just plain, for lack of a better word, mean.
