Comic Movie

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.

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.

Personally find it entertaining. Easy to watch. If you take out the crappy base storyline with the 3 twits it's OK. I don't think people realise the point of this film. It's just a sketch movie. It's not meant to be a masterpiece. Millions of people watch sketches like this on YouTube everyday but may a movie well that's just ridiculous, calm down. It's way better than south park which is just swearing angry kids and sex.

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.

Overarching story 8 stars.

Ok I've never written a review on here before and it's painfully obvious as to how late I am. However, what did you people expect from this movie? The entire point of it is that it was different segments with not much of a plot just trying to get some laughs out of people and it was hilarious. What did you people want an Oscar worthy comedy? No it was never meant to be that. Just to make you laugh and it was funny. If you did not find it funny then I'm guessing you are somebody who still thinks SNL is funny. It's gross out humor. Cmon people the home schooled segment was great. My god relax and take this movie for what it is. Again just different segments that really don't have a point beyond creating humor. That's exactly what it did.
