38Joe Dirt is so obviously a construction that it is impossible to find anything human about him; he is a concept, not a person.
-
38Just a big chunk of waste flushed from a Hollywood studio.
-
30What makes it so disappointing is that the movie is just another sub-Farrelly-brothers collection of miscellaneous gags.
-
30Rich with comic potential that goes unfulfilled, time after stupefying time.
-
For all its promise of lively trailer-park humor, Joe Dirt digs, then lies in its own grave, killed by blah characters, lame jokes and cliches you can see coming a mile away.
-
25Knows its audience and doesn't stint on the flatulence jokes, poop jokes, leg-humping dogs and moments of homo-panic.
-
25Structured loosely enough to work in all the excrement and incest jokes necessary to seem hip these days.
-
25We have to endure 93 minutes of this torture, with only a few high points.
-
20Relentlessly softheaded and softhearted.
-
Even with help from a pathetic Kid Rock and a boost from always-on Christopher Walken, Spade can't pull this off.
-
10In one scene, raw sewage is dumped on Joe. See Joe Dirt and you'll know how that feels.
-
10Takes a prominent place along with "Tomcats," "Say It Isn't So," "Saving Silverman" and "Get Over It" on the list of reasons why raucous teen farce is headed six feet under.
-
10Redefines the notion of a feature film another notch downward.
-
10All failed concept and misfired comedy.
-
10We should be asking ourselves why so noble a nation would produce swill like Joe Dirt.
-
0Talk about waste products; think of the time, effort and money that went into this movie.
-
There's an oddball quality to the ensemble that might even be lovable if the movie weren't so glib and perfunctory.
-
0Sandler and Spade continue their avid quest to dumb down America.

Exceedingly boring and relentlessly cliched, Joe Dirt may deliver one or two brief laughs along the way, but it's not enough to break up the lag.
