60The movie's comic heart consists of a series of indescribably loopy, elaborately conceived happenings that are at once rigorous and chaotic, idiotic and brilliant.
-
50His (Green) new gross-out comedy is crude and stupid, but just as often rudely funny. It doesn't so much push the envelope as shred it.
-
50A frat-boy remake of "Pink Flamingos" which isn't all bad.
-
50The film is a somewhat disjointed affair that, like the man himself (Green), is occasionally brilliant, frequently repetitive and sometimes merely annoying.
-
50The earnestness of some of the drama in the only deceptively unsophisticated narrative may be more shocking than any of the gross-outs.
-
40To be fair, this is hardly the worst gross-out comedy ever made; it's nowhere as misogynistic as, say, "Tomcats," and in the end, it probably won't leave you in a state of utter nihilistic despair.
-
25Formidably stupid.
-
25Exhaustingly manic but curiously unfunny movie.
-
25The film is like watching Ozzy Osbourne bite the head off a rubber bat -- it's only almost heinous.
-
25Not since Andy Kaufman's reign of terror has a supposed funnyman been so self-indulgently persistent in testing a fan's patience.
-
20It's a gleefully unfettered gross-a-thon first --also second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth -- and a movie perhaps seventh.
-
20It feels manufactured to be suitable for mass consumption.
-
10It's a performance that screams "Look at me!" louder and bigger than an elephant dick. And every bit as subtle.
-
10Lurches from one set-piece stomach-lurcher to the next with nary a nod to narrative coherence.
-
10Do not bring children to this movie unless you want them to have nightmares for weeks.
-
10Even the movie finds itself asking when it'll end. Not soon enough.
-
10In a sense, this is a horror film, worse than anything Andy Kaufman could dream up, in which Green tries to outgross himself.
-
10The movie is simply not professional. It's not, even by the lowest standards of Republic B-westerns in the '30s or bad, cheap horror films in the '50s, releasable.
-
0This movie doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels.
-
Bad decision after bad decision occurs over 93 minutes.
-
0So awful it qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment.
-
0Green, who looks like a chinless, hollow-eyed pederast at the best of times, is simply out of his league here, and the fact that the film drags interminably when it's actually a very average 90 minutes long betrays its essential emptiness.
-
0To dismiss this movie for being ''offensive'' would be to offer it high praise.
-
0The most appalling comedy of the millennium after "Joe Dirt," which is so supernaturally terrible that it levitated me out of the theater after 40 minutes.
-
0One of the most brutally awful comedies ever to emerge from a major studio.
