Mr. Accident

To be honest, I have never heard of this film before. When I saw it in the summer of 2003, I enjoyed it. This movie is definitely weird, funny, and original. Yahoo Serious does a great job playing Roger Crumpkin, and he does some pretty good slapstick stunts. The cinematography is brilliant, adding more colors to the scenery. The film's soundtrack is very hear-worthy with great songs. I haven't seen any of Serious' other films (except for some of Young Einstein), but this film definitely makes me want to check them out. Serious has made a hilarious, live-action cartoon that is likely to please any other fan of slapstick comedy.

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.

This is actually one of my favorite movies of all time.

I don't see why everyone thinks this movie is so bad. This is the cutest movie I've ever seen. You might think I don't know anything about movies, but I do. I've seen extremely bad movies [ Manos : the hands of fate, etc. ] as well as movies that are considered genius [ such as 2001 : space odyssey and Clockwork orange ]. I'm not going to try to convince anyone that it's a good and smart movie, because it's not. It's not a smart movie, and it's not supposed to be. And guess what? That's what's so good about it.

It's a childish, surreal and cartoonish movies with colorful characters. I've seen other cartoon-like movies in my life, but I've never seen anything like this one. Just like the other Yahoo Serious movies, this is meant to be silly. If you rent this movie with the idea in your head that it has to be intellectual, you'll be extremely deceived. But if you like cartoons and if you like pure silly-ness, you'll like this. Personally I thought the characters were very attaching and the story very charming and cute. I can see why someone would think it's stupid, but at the same time you can't expect this movie to be different.

Of course, this isn't the type of movie that everyone will enjoy, but I think it deserves a lot more than 3 on 10. Even if you don't like this type of cartoonish fluff, I think it's a good movie to rent and just watch if you're bored. It's entertaining and colorful.

I just saw this on television and I am happy to announce that I can finally answer my nephew's question as to what is the worst film I have ever seen, at least in the comedy category. To describe this film as elementary school level would be to insult elementary school students, who I think could create something far better. Yahoo Serious has apparently gone on a well deserved march into oblivion.

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!
