Hilarious. That's all I need. My type of humor. I laughed a lot. Most of the skits are so funny. Some are alright. Crazy how many famous actors are in this.
EDIT: Watching this again 11 years after it came out, I think I might have laughed even more. I don't care how many people poop on this movie (lol), it's absolutely hilarious. I was cracking up throughout at the utter stupidity on display.
I disagree with one thing in my original review, even the worst skits are very funny. Definitely funnier than anything coming out these days. Updating rating from 8 to 9 stars.
Hugh Jackman 9 stars.
Liev Schreiber 9 stars.
Chris Pratt 8.5 stars.
Emma Stone 7.5 stars.
Jason Bateman 8 stars.
Chloe Grace Moretz 7.5 stars.
Sean Williams Scott 7 stars.
Halle Berry 7.5 stars.
Terrence Howard 9 stars.
Elizabeth Banks 9 stars.
IPod commercial 8 stars.
Overarching story 8 stars.

The first time I tried watching this movie, I couldn't get past the first segment and stopped watching. Then one night, nothing was on, so I thought I would give this movie a second chance. I'm glad I did. Most of the segments are hilarious! A couple of them were not. "Kids in machines" for example. The two final segments, "Basketball" and "Beezle the cat" were great! If you enjoy twisted humor and are not easily offended, you will enjoy it. If you are "Woke" or very PC, you won't like it, and I recommend you skip it.
I've been curious about this movie for a long time. I finally watched it today after finding it at the Dollar tree maybe a week or so ago. Some of the shorts were quite entertaining like the Emma Stone and Liev Schreiber shorts. But there are some that were just uninteresting to me the Hugh Jackman and Chris Pratt Shorts. Not the worst movie watching experience I've had but not the best.
I don't know, maybe I just have a strange sense of humor, but I thought this movie was funny. I always find it funny when serious actors do slapstick roles. I watched it several times and I still find it funny. I say if you like movies like Airplane or Blazing Saddles, just a hell of a lot nastier and rude, then this is the movie for you.
This is not a movie everyone is going to like. In fact, you'll love it or hate it. It's crass, stupid, absurd, nonsensical, devoid of story or message - and yet, it's just a funny movie to watch with friends of like mind and a few drinks.
It's literally PACKED with Hollywood talent - every great actor or comedian you can think of has a part. That's what lifts it up IMO. You have talented, A-list actors doing to most offensive and dumb sketches you can think of, and somehow it comes together as some sort of weird, trippy compilation of Comedy Central and MTV, back when it was actually cool and edgy.
If the first 10 minutes don't grab you - the rest won't either. But if you like that, it's just more of it.

- WissenswertesThe movie was filmed over a span of four years. Production took so long because filming had to be done around the actors' busy schedules. The segment with Kate Winslet and Hugh Jackman was the first to be filmed, and producer Charles B. Wessler used it to secure the financing for the rest of the movie. He called in a lot of favors to get as many high-profile actors as possible for the other short films, most of them willing to work for a few days on something unconventional. However, almost none of the actors knew completely what the other segments were about, or how the full movie would be. When it came out, none of the major actors wanted to promote it.
- PatzerIn the second segment, the guy is pouring coffee into a cup being held, after the scene change, the cup is on the coffee table.
- Zitate
Nathan: [segment "Middleschool Date"] Hello, 9-1-1? Yeah, my friend is bleeding out of her vagina!
Dad (segment "Middleschool Date"): Nathan, Nathan, listen.
Nathan: Why are you laughing at me?
- Crazy CreditsThe "Beezel" segment runs in between the segment credits and the rest of the credits.
- Alternative VersionenThe wraparound involving the segments being movie pitches was replaced in the UK Alternate Cut Version, released on the UK Blu-Ray, with an alternate wraparound about two teenagers and an 11-year-old trying to find the most banned movie in the world.
