Skid Marks

This movie truly seemed as if it were written by a pair of stoned fourteen year olds that just discovered softcore porn and boobs. To say that the humor was sophomoric is an understatement. There is no sign of intelligent life here; not that one would expect any. Yet slapstick humor serves a purpose and this title just falls short in every category. Nothing but crude and unfunny dirty jokes, sexually repressed writing and bad characters. The lead in this movie may just be the most unlikable character in recent comedy history. Somehow stalker tendencies turn into sweet nothings whispered into the ears of fourteen year old perverts in the middle of the most disturbing nocturnal emissions. Disgusting film with a ridiculous plot, pitiful and childish writing followed by terrible performances from actors portraying annoying characters. If you have any semblance of a brain, you'll do some good and stay the hell away from this garbage.

I took my son to see this. He loved it. It was a bit much for me, but I'm glad he enjoyed himself. It was neat giving my son the history lessons on what other films led up to this one. For me, it felt very much like the 1980's comedies of which when I was closer to my son's age just loved. Titles that came to mind were Police Academy, Moving Violations, Stripes (Ox/John Candy being the Karl character, Rich being the Bill Murray character, the female love interest the nudity and raunchiness in general), Porky's, Revenge of the Nerds etc.

If it was up to me I'd probably give the movie a six, but for my son's sake I gave it an 8. Perhaps I'm out of the loop or just getting too old for the raunch factor. Either way it was a fun outing. A caution to other parents however strong language, nudity, gross out humor, and general distaste for decency.

I like these kind of movies. Crude humor and pretty girls. Probably would not take my grandmother or pastor to see it but it kind of reminds me of my old college days. I recommend seeing it. Great acting with some of the EMT guys. Also, very pretty girls. The picture was very clear and the sound was great. I saw this at a theater in San Diego when I was out there on business. I hope it comes to Texas where I reside as I have many friends that would enjoy this. A lot of laugh out loud scenes. The length of the movie was just about right. It was a good value. Probably will appeal most to college males. This has the potential to generate a cult falling which could also lend itself to possible sequels like Police Academy.

You know, I wonder sometimes how stupid a film promoter can be....

Every review but one here is by a person extolling the different virtues of the film in PR speak, and bad PR speak at that.

If you want to shill a movie, then at least have the decency to credit the members here with some degree of intelligence.

3 pages of PR, all obviously written by the same amateur promoter does NOT entice anyone to watch what is basically a single fart gag retold in 10 different ways.

I rest my case. If anyone considers watching this junk then they deserve everything they get Including me. :) Cheers, Will

Skidmarks has been diagnosed as funny, gross and a little bit stupid at times! If you are looking for some guiltless pleasure, then Skidmarks is your answer. It provides non stop entertainment from a group of zany Emergency Medical Tech characters. The outrageous situations that the EMT's get themselves into and out of keeps the audience laughing out loud throughout many scenes. If you like physical humor and wonderful comedic chemistry, then you will really enjoy the interplay between Neil and Bob of the Downtown Intensive Care Unit. I have seen Superbad and the 2 cops in that movie don't hold a candle to the comedy that Neil and Bob bring to the screen.
