what a horrible film! jim carrey must have backed out on this film... it's obvious this film was made with him in mind as the lead... what's even worse about this film is they casted the lead to resemble jim carrey! how pathetic! did the producers really think they could sell a film with a look-a-like? unf***ingbelievable! randy quaid was the best part of this film... too bad he was catatonic thru most of it. who ever casted this film should be fired! so many great comedic actors are in this film (andy richter, tracy morgan, randy quaid, kevin pollak), yet they casted a no name... they should've casted tracy morgan as the lead. i can't believe i'm still watching this piece of crap.
I guess if Jim Carrey is going to make serious films like The Majestic, they need someone to fill his old shoes. They found him, David Sheridan. This movie was definitely Jim Carrey-esque...not only does Dave Sheridan act exactly like Jim Carrey, but he happens to look remarkably like him. Unfortunately, the script is ridiculous. A few laughs are provided, but mostly it's groans. If you've been missing the funny Jim Carrey, you might want to try this film for a fix.

This movie was a terrible attempt at comedy. The plot was beyond stupid and the actors were just plain awful. Jokes failed miserably. I guess Dolly Parton and Randy Quaid owed someone a favor because I can't believe they actually would want to be in this crap. And if this is what Chyna had in mind when she left wrestling; then maybe she should think again.
FINAL VERDICT: Trash! Avoid it at all cost!

I'm surprised so many reviews trash this film so much, because honestly despite it's obvious flaws and unoriginality (this film rips on Dumb and Dumber and Ace Ventura like no other). Honestly though, I think if you liked either of those films, you can enjoy many parts of this one. The list of stars making cameos in this film are numerous and sometimes save the scene (eg. Tracy Morgan as a bogus claim con). Sadly many jokes in the film fall flat on their face, and when they do, it's like hitting a brick wall. To compound this so much of the film is a direct ripoff of Ace Ventura, such as the numerous disguises the McKlusky uses. His character is also too similar to Jim Carrey's Dumb and Dumber character, which doesn't help. Overall I think the film is worth watching, but don't be prepared for greatness.
This guy is trying to be Jim Carrey. Maybe it's not his fault. Maybe the director made him do this. Facial expressions and mannerisms are Jim Carrey rip-offs. He even looks a little like Jim Carrey>
Some good comedy talent in the cast, but if they had it to do over again, I'll be they'd all pass. Too stupid to be funny. I don't know if it was a lack of money, time, or possible the director was inept, or the editing was done at the Hemp Users Society Annual Expo.
Whatever it was, it resulted in a movie that is a waste of time. Fortunately, I didn't pay to buy or rent this flick. It was on one of my cable channels. Not recommended.
