I'm not really sure what kind of movie the Broken Lizard gang were trying to make or even why they felt the need to make this movie.
It's not a particularly funny movie as the jokes are very by the book and are the sort of jokes that would have been out of date 100 years ago, let alone nowadays.
At best the jokes are nothing more than expected insults throw at one another by the cast.
And the storyline itself is your standard zero to hero storyline without you really caring what happens to any of the characters.
Sadly the group haven't written a decent movie since Beerfest. You can't just keep making the same jokes and not making any real storyline and expect the movie to be good.

Simple story, nice movie, looks like they had fun making it. What else can you expect?
Of course people saw better movies, and Broken Lizard made different stuff in the past but hey, the important thing is that they can still work together after so many years.
I don't think it is the type of movie that makes you burst out laughing like Slamin' Salmon or Super Troopers, but it is still a concise story line that kept me on, entertaining enough with funny moments, and something quite important to think about: without a multimillion dollar budget and an tiresome amount of CGI.
I hope they keep putting things together and having fun creating things. God knows we need it!

I've always been a pretty big fan of Broken Lizard, going all the way back to Super Troopers, and since then have seen all of their films. My personal favorite is Club Dread, but I find them all to be fun, care-free movies. Quasi is no different. It's fun and care-free. There are a few really good gags and ad-libbed lines, with the expected great chemistry of its core group, each of whom take on multiple roles. Steve Lemme steals this one as the titular Quasimodo as well as the small role of a terrible jester who keeps getting punished in ridiculous ways. It's not a masterpiece, nor is it even a top 3-4 of BL, it's just nice to have fun with a movie that, at no point, takes itself seriously. I would put this one in line with Slammin Salmon in terms of actual laugh out loud moments, but there are so many small moments that, while not making me laugh, brought a smile to my face. If you like Broken Lizards previous films, you'll probably like this too, but if you didn't, you'll, honestly, hate it.
Broken Lizard strikes again with a movie that could have been perfect comedy wise, but I feel it fell a little short for me.
The plot is Quasi and his hut mate work at the torture house in their village. When Quasi wins the lotto things start to get interesting.
The characters and acting in the film were good, but I feel like they tried a little to hard to be Monty Python in this one. I understand that was the influence, but I wish it was a little more of their own style. The jokes were kind of tired at times, and it didn't really have the feel of a Broken Lizard film in my opinion.
The movie itself is decent, and I would watch anything these guys make. I'd recommend it for anyone who likes comedy to watch it at least once.

The gang at Broken Lizard is back at it, but this time set in medieval times in France. Their typical slapstick humor is abundant in this one, and for the most part it's fairly entertaining and will make you laugh. It was a little long for what it was though.
I wouldn't say it was their best work, as I think Super Troopers, Beerfest, and Tacoma FD are better, but it was still enjoyable to watch. I think maybe the accents got a little tiresome, but it helped that they worked in some jokes involving their accents.
I was happy to see the cast from Tacoma FD in this as I find them all a great fit with the original Broken Lizard guys.
I think the re-watchability of this one is probably not great, but I do suspect it might be the type of cult-classic movie that will get better with time. We'll have to see how it ages.
