Great acting, great story and great laughs!!!!!

Best clean family movie in 10 years!!!!

A comedy with heart!!!!

You will laugh and laugh some more!!!!

My kids grew up watching the Skit Guys. Their humor with a point has always always been a hit. Their acting and those of every cast member carried the day. While I loved the storyline, the dialog and pace needed to be stronger to hold my husband and youngest daughter's attention. This was not low budget, everyone earned their roles but I think the movie would have been 10 times better if the Skit Guys had written it themselves. My daughter proclaimed, "It's not funny. " While that's too much of a blanket statement, there was some truth to it. But come on, the CGI beaver was adorable and Tommy and Eddie are amazing . They deserve to be in more movies.

This film was worthy of a script written for Chevy Chase and his family for National Lampoon's vacation movie. Unfortunately, this one is pretty much in the same vein, so it has that been there and done that feeling. It is squeaky clean, and fit for family viewing, but once again, there will not be too many laughs along the way. The script is weak and so are the jokes. Most of the movie is predictable and is overly PC. An attempt at copying the successful Saturday night formula falls a bit short, but is harmless enough viewing if you have nothing else to do and nowhere else to go. I saw the film for free with my pass.

This film is super cheesy! It is poorly acted, poorly scripted, not realistic, and has many plot holes. The characters are annoying more than funny, and, to top it off, there is a ridiculous beaver "character" and Bigfoot hunters to just push it over-the-top. I wouldn't say it's completely unwatchable, but barely tolerable, and I definitely wouldn't have paid to see it if I'd of know all this ahead of time. The only plus, is that it is a clean, family film. Younger children may enjoy the goofiness of this film more than the average adult. It's always disappointing when a Christian film is so poorly done. A missed opportunity IMHO. (note: First, I am a Christian, so I'm not an non-religious person bashing a Christian film. Second, after looking up a few of the 10/9 star reviews many are new accounts who have only rated this film, so they obviously were trying to bump up the rating, which is disappointing. Third, my husband gave it a 1 star) I say 4.5 stars. May 2022.

I saw this in the theater with my 5 year old. It was too silly for me and not funny enough for him. Probably best for pre-teens. Still, the jokes didn't land. I imagined them performed by A-list comic actors and could see how the writers might have thought the script would've been funny but there were very few laughs. Also there were times when they tried to be too emotionally dramatic. The movie is set up to imply that you're about to see a slapstick comedy but then they try to get a little too deep. It's awkward when you're constantly late to realizing that what you're watching is suddenly supposed to be serious rather than funny. The balance just isn't there. And is it supposed to be preachy? I would have to assume so based on the fact that the movie wouldn't have to change at all if it omitted the religious aspect. Classic straight man/comic foil structure done much more poorly than most of the similar low budget B movies of the 90s.
