    A superb film from start to finish, it packs a truely awe-inspiring explosion of zany humor with tiny gags to make you positively wet yourself,it's a shame this film isn't in the public eye more like Airplane or The Naked Gun, as the humor is just as good.

    This movie was great! Film critics just don't understand the whole "funny" thing, because even if a movie does seem stupid and childish, if it makes you laugh, it did its job. I don't think these guys were trying to do anything major, just make a funny movie, and I have to say they did just that.

    I don't understand how the original Scary Movie got pretty decent reviews yet this movie, which is far less childish and far less disgusting gets terrible reviews. This movie is not the send-up of pro sports it starts out to be, no. Zucker and Parker throw their satirical ability about like it was nothing, practically showing off, and yet they make the best underdog comedy of all time. People think Dodgeball is good? Perhaps it is. But if you don't like BASEketball, that's because you haven't arrived at that humor yet. It's a movie 10 years ahead of it's humor. If it came out this year it would be a hit.… Expand

    There's a reason why I've seen this film 7 times and STILL laugh in the funny bits: it's a stroke of genius that could only be the brainchild of the gods behind South Park. Upon arriving at this site, however, I am confronted by scores of 0. This has only taught me never to trust film reviews ever again: this is undoubtedly the funniest movie of all time.

    Everyone who gave this movie needs to go through puberty, or at least see super troopers.

    A very much underrated film. Very saterical towards sports and the industry around it. Plus has similar style of humor found in South Park. What's not to love? Now excuse me while I play Nintendo.

    Once again, David Zucker proves himself to be a great comic talent, not just of parody, but of a wide variety of humour - he is able to flaunt clever dialogue on moment, then shift the tone to outright childishness the next. OK, so it's not quite on par with Airplane! or Naked Gun, but it's a league better than the atrocious Scary Movie sequels. Some jokes don't quite hit the mark, but the majority will have you roaring with laughter, and the film leaves plenty of room for Parker and Stone to shine.… Expand

    Sick, twisted, and very funny, Parker and Stone have arrived. Again.

    I was bored well before the end, but found the first half hour pretty funny.

    Starts promisingly as an attack on modern commercialized sports, and then turns into just one more wheezy assembly-line story about slacker dudes vs. rich old guys.
