JustinS.Aug 22, 200810Critics don't know good movies if it showed up at their front door. This movie rocks and is hilarious.

DavidS.Mar 4, 200310If you are looking for a good laugh this is about as sure of bet you can find. That is if you are under 40, if you are not you may want to stay away from it because the humor is certainly geared towards the younger generation. Cominn ah yah hah!!!!!!!

[Anonymous]Mar 23, 20019One of the funniest movies of the year.

YoonC.Sep 15, 20034Lots of dumb laughs if you're into that sort of thing. Jack Black however is a superior actor/comedian as usual. And, the female lead is pretty sexy.

rafaelL.Aug 20, 200510The funniest movie i ever see.

JacksonG.Jan 4, 20077Awesome. One of the few movies in which Jack Black is actually funny (the other he barely appears in: High Fidelity).

JerryP.Jul 12, 200710By far Jack Black's funniest movie. I have laughed harder in very few movies.

HarryP.Feb 11, 20011This movie is the result, if Woody Allen directed Godzilla vs. The Godfather on crack. Pure drek.

BlancoA.Feb 9, 20016The first hour is absolutely hillarious, but as the story "develops," the comedy falls off a very steep cliff. And Amanda Peet couldn't act her way out of a paper bag.

DesiM.Mar 23, 20017Look--if you like Steve Zahn and Jack Black, and especially if you're a Neil Diamond fan, you'll get a kick out of this movie. It will make for fun late-night viewing on video/DVD. I've seen MUCH worse films trying to be comedies--there are some real (and original) laughs here.

EmilyC.Jun 25, 20010Why did I pay money to see this? The WORST movie ever!

AndrewE.Jul 21, 200110If you like movies with happy endings, See this movie. If you like movies with odd endings, see this movie. Or if you just like things that are odd altogether, see this film. It ranges from Nuns lifting weights to a horny Chinese man to kidnapping. A very funny film. ^_^

ChaseD.Nov 8, 200210This is a hillarious movie!! People in the movie critics don't like it because they don't know what real comedy is. This is very funny!! All they like are the things are dramatic. They need to live and laugh more!!! Jack Black and Steve Zauhn are extremely funny in this!

FelicityF.Aug 18, 20029I don't care how crappy certain parts of this movie are, by and large, this movie is HIILLARIOUS!! Jack Black rocks, and Steve Zahn is hillarious. Check it out.

MarcS.Jan 14, 20036Neil!! I wanna party with you!! Yeah it's not the best comedy I've seen in a while, but I have to say that there are two things I loved about this movie.. Jack Black.. and Neil Diamond!!! As far as the movie altogether, however, some of the jokes do indeed fall flat, so that's why I give it a somewhat mediocre score.

adamAug 28, 20059I would have to admit, at first I hated this movie, but then I watched it again, and I loved it. Its one of those movies that is so dumb that you have to laugh at it.

EricaL.Nov 7, 200110It was so sweet. I love Tenacious D. It is the best band ever. I love this movie . I especially like Jack Black. He is cute.

ScottJul 19, 20017Yes, it is a very uneven comedy. For every joke that wins laughter there is one that falls flat. Yet one can't help getting caught up in the zany comedy that Jack Black and Steve Zahn create when they are on screen. You don't go looking for art when you rent a film like this one. You want outrageous comedy. When Black and Zahn are on the screen, that's what you get.

DaleB.Dec 2, 200210One of...if not the BEST movie!!! Jack Black is hilarious in it! I dont know why they gave it a 18 but it should have gotten a 100.....i dont know why metacritic gives all the crap movies 100's...like Y tu mama tambien....IT SUCKED! THIS RULES!

DickC.Oct 28, 200210"American Pie" style humor with the hilarious duo of Jack Black and Steve Zahn thrown in the mix. You have to see this if you are a high school or college student period.

GlennM.Aug 21, 200510Very funny, most odd critic reviews I have ever seen.
-
-
BonehoC.Apr 16, 20060Very, very bad. The movie falls apart so fast that it actually relies on making Jack Black's character gay to throw in some extra laughes, none of which work.
-
-
Guy!Apr 24, 200710Funniest Jack black movie ever! It really brings out his character.

DanF.Jun 11, 20086The last 3rd is pretty weak, but it's a genuinely funny movie. Can't understand all the low scores.
-
-
StevenL.Aug 29, 20085I know it's stupid, I know it deserves the bad ratings. But i can't lie, I'd watch it again. Steve Zahn & Jack Black are two guys that can make bad movies watchable.

TinaD.Nov 28, 200110You know how when you're watching a movie alone and something funny happens, but you give nothing more than a little smirk? Well, this is one of those movies that makes you laugh out loud even when you have no one to laugh with. The cast is perfect, and Jack Black(my favorite) and Steve Zahn are the ultimate comedic duo!
-
-
JohnnyBlazeNov 29, 20036The overall scope of the movie is pretty idiotic and pointless, but the improvisations of Jack Black and Steve Zahn are pretty hilarious. Let's get these two in another film that truly showcases their chemistry. This movie comes off very sophmoric in it's production.

AmyP.Dec 22, 200310This movie was very funny it had me laughing like every minute I loved it a lot.

35Black, who is creatively marooned in the thankless Chris Farley fat-boy role, deserve better, and so do we.

20Every movie Dugan releases looks like something made on accident--tosses yet another stink bomb into theaters for audiences to sniff over.

70I was laughing myself sick over Saving Silverman, a sublimely idiotic farce in the "There's Something About Mary" tradition.
