The Ten - I dieci comandamenti come non li avete mai visti

Once upon a time there was a good movie called 10. They should have borrowed on that title and call it "1". As it is the worst thing someone put on the screen. To call it a 'comedy' is a big stretch, nothing at all is funny in that silly movie. It looks like a high school production, and its amazing how some of the actors agreed to be in it. The humor is juvenile, and it is just pure silly. I can't see it even as a cult movie at midnight.... There are really not enough negative comments to say to describe this total waste of time, and money...how they got the funding is a mystery...did anyone read that? Save time, money and stamps before you go see this ONE.....

There were some good ideas for the sketches but it seems like the writers couldn't figure out how to develop them. The result is something you might see at a high school production with a single sight-gag or punchline stretched to fit the allotted time. It's not that the gag is bad or stupid (though sometime it is) - it's just that you can't fill 10 minutes of dead time with one joke.

There are a couple of funnier commandments that got more than half a laugh. Winona Ryder is a scream - she of course is in the sketch about the do not steal commandment. (See how clever that is - this movie is full of them...) Unfortunately, the funnier sketches are at the end of the movie and you have to sit through an hour to get there.

This reminds me a lot of SNL - the current incarnation - not the "classic" incarnations. If you watch SNL you'll probably like this. If you find SNL an interminable bore, like I do - then avoid...

There's a cartoon rhino in this film who lays big stinkin turds everywhere. That's a good description of this movie.

There was an Exodus from the theater starting about halfway through.

It's just a loose collection of sketches that have original concepts -- but like an SNL sketch, they just keep pounding the same joke in over and over into boredom.

Forget about the Ten Commandments -- it's really not about them or religion -- or anything much. There's no satire even.

If you think "oh I love dirty comedies" -- you'll be disappointed. There's no naked breasts. Just a lot of fairly unattractive naked men and endless ass-raping mentions.

I like "dirty and brilliant", but "dirty and lame" is a sin against comedy.

This is the first film I have chosen to comment on so forgive me if my review is not on par with some of the more knowledgeable film buffs out there! I feel I should also point out that I have no prior knowledge of the director or any of his previous works.

Therefore, reviewing this as a stand-alone movie, I would have to say that it was somewhat below average. While there were some scenes that I did laugh at and in my opinion the acting was great (though it has to be said that the actors were playing rather shallow characters) all in all it was a rather disappointing film. As many people have said, the plots were VERY loosely tied to the Ten Commandments (in some cases I found it hard to find the link at all) and I actually felt embarrassed for the actors during some of the more cringe worthy scenes. It just felt to me as if they were trying too hard. In some cases the dialogue was highly commendable but in others it was just lacked subtlety. Don't get me wrong - I love humour that is intended to shock and appal but as I said earlier - this film just felt like it was trying too hard to do so and thus, for me, lacked integrity.

This film had a good premise with a load of good actors. How did it not come out great? I believe this film just entered into the "Envy" status.

Don't get me wrong there a few laughs (see Liev Screiber's phone call) But no where near enough to cover the patchy and downright stupid storyline. Why was Paul Rudd's story taking place in the TV studio in which he was filming a program? Surely thats not allowed.

This film lacks smarts and doesn't make up for it with all out laughs. The film could of been the next Anchorman or even Dodgeball but due to story getting lost somewhere and a couple of stories which were just stupid (see last story and story with the rhino) I think what sums this film up is the last scene you'll know what I'm talking about when you see it.

I had high expectations and was let down, thoroughly.
