Feb 17, 201110Funny a** movie, one of my all time favorite comedies of all time! I couldn't stop laughing at a lot of parts in the movie and definitely not worth the 25 score, more of above 65 at least, I'd give it a high score.
-
LaurieS.Apr 6, 20068Really funny and unique. Nick Swardson character is outrageous and Scheider is so likeable. Definately worth seeing, lots of laughs!

B4reelApr 9, 20060The good reviews herein were paid for -- unless a bunch of Special Olympians got on-line after watching this waste of time -- can I get my two hours back? The person resposible should be sent to prison for every hour wasted....

BeckyKOct 25, 200610To those of you rating this movie as though it should rival Shakespeare...don’t watch comedies! This movie was hilarious! If you're looking for a movie with depth, don't watch one which stars an SNL alum much less one which is produced by one...get over yourself! Very funny!

JohnL.Oct 4, 20061Whats wrong with the people who gave this a ten? Its absolute garbage! I couldn’t stand this movie I’m only giving it a 1 because Molly Sims was so hot in it. I can’t even see little kids being entertained by this train wreck...

LDApr 11, 20065It's gotta be taken for what it was... a stupid slapstick comedy... nobody can expect the critics to love it. I only have two complaints though: 1. Rob Schneider cannot pull off a studly character in a serious role. 2. While I loved Napoleon Dynamite, Jon Heder needs to quit the voice.

JohnH.Apr 10, 20060The same people who enjoy movies like this are the ones who watch MTV. Burned! Seriously, half the eighth-graders in my Spanish class saw it over the weekend, and they all loved it. If a movie is marketed to average 14 year olds, there can be no doubt of its quality. (What quality? Burned again!)

DonutY.Apr 15, 20060No, just no. I saw this movie since Scary Movie was sold out hoping this would of been funny...it wasn't. My buddies and I walked out on this thing, there was probably 2-3 moments that made me laugh, but then they reused those 2-3 moments over and over and over. Worst movie I have seen in awhile, first movie I have actually walked out on.

MattG.Apr 9, 20061I laughed maybe twice. It just wasn't funny, and normally I laugh at movies like this.
-
-
JamieJul 30, 200610This was just like Napoleon dynamite! Plus it had the guy from Napoleon. The only thing I didn't like was that it was a happy madison production with rob schnider and adam sandler wasnt in it. They have been in eachother's movies since waterboy!
-
-
TonyFeb 18, 20085A fast paced reasonably entertaining movie with a few funny moments. I could have done without the potty humor, since it had all been done before and everytime I was done in this movie it seemed forced.
-
-
MarkA.Apr 1, 200810I'm no fan of Rob Schnieder, and I usually hate Sandler's films, but Benchwarmers made me laugh more times than I can count. A great deal of that credit goes to Jon Lovitz as Mel Schmegmer, "a nerd who grew up - TO MAKE MILLIONS!" This is a film for anyone who's ever been picked on (or picked last) in sports.

JessR.Apr 23, 20068I thought it was hillarious. I compared it to Dodge Ball, I mean these are the actors we all know and love. I would see it again.

PaulApr 25, 20068It was actually pretty funny, but the plot was pretty childish for a PG-13 movie. But overall it was decent.
-

RachelW.Apr 6, 20069Very entertaining movie. Great to see the SNL old favorites and some great new young talent. As a parents this movie has a great message for kids masked in a bunch of gross humor. Great for the whole family!

[Anonymous]Apr 7, 20061Awful and predictable. Jon heder need to stop going for the stupid guy roles.
-
-
KPApr 7, 20061Simply terrible, nothing more to say.
-

ansleyt.Apr 7, 200610Reminds me of napoleon dynamite. funny, and unappreciated...
-
-
MikeH.Apr 7, 20060The absolute worst. Old jokes that weren't funny when they were new. A rehash of Revenge of the Nerds. David Spade is insuffesrable.
-
-
AaronM.Apr 8, 20060There's only one way to say it. This is the worst movie I've ever seen.
-

AB.Apr 8, 200610It was one of the funniest movie's i've ever seen! it was sooooo good!
-
-
LauraE.Apr 9, 200610i loved this movie. although it is one of those stupid funny movies, it is still funny. rob schneider actually looks relatively decent in this movie, and jon heder and david spade are adorable as your stereotypical nerds. the agoraphobic brother running at girl guides with a plastic sword really takes the cake in this movie. its funny, moronic, and charming.

kii.May 11, 200610This movie rocks. make a second!
-
-
JayS.May 1, 200610In my opinion this is the best movie EVER! I didnt stop laughing the whole time. And to top it off, it had the dude from napoleon dynamite. I have not EVER liked 1 rob schnieder movie, untill now. Could he be turning his career around?
-
-
MikeD.May 16, 20060What a crap movie. Only the fart jokes are funny and mildly at that. Don't waste your money...even renting it.

KeeganH.May 23, 200610this movie was hilarious, i would watch it any day.

NickM.Aug 14, 20068I thought this movie was very funny, not a comic masterpeice like monty python and the holy grail, but still, awsome movie for a good laugh.

SaigeAug 23, 20066It wasn't as good as others, but I thought this movie was good for a few quick laughs.

MattH.Jun 20, 20073Beginning to notice pattern here. how come some moron comes on Metacritic and gives something a 10 because everyone rubbished it......... given it a 3, there was a couple of times i did laugh out loud, but this on the whole is terrible. Anyone who believes that it is worthy of more than a 3, thats fine, but i just want to point out, robot butler! end of discussion.

MegankJun 27, 200710this is my FAVORITE movie!!!! MAKERS OF WHAT. . . POOP haha what kinda loser doesn't think thats funny!! I loved it!!!!!

AdamRAug 30, 200710Metacritic just doesn't like this kind of movie! What is wrong with the people who gave it a zero! No movie is a zero! Hilarious movie!

DazSep 2, 20070God saw this over Xmen 3 since one of us hadn't seen any X men, god this is awful you have to be very young to enjoy this movie, its just so mediocre and absolutely no laugh out load moments.

EdgarC.Sep 25, 20079I went into this movie thinking it was gonna be pretty dumb, but I was wrong. The movie pulled off some really funny stunts and some bathroom humor, but manages to stay mostly clean for younger audiences.

-
JCMay 30, 200810This is hilarious. I haven't even watched it ten times and I know almost half the words and lines in the movies.
-
-
BobbyJ.Jan 16, 201010A funny, gross movie! Should make a sequel!
-
-
PeterJ.Dec 14, 20066Let's be honest. This was not the greatest movie, but it does not deserve the low scores it has received. Every once in a while it is refreshing to watch something like this. It obviously does not deserve a 10, but it surely does not deserve anything less than a 4. I give it a solid 6.

JoeMamaApr 15, 20060Most people thought this movie was stupid, but funny. I disagree. I thought it was stupid and NOT funny. Schneider had no funny lines and the comedy was immature, even though my 7 year old brother didn't think it was funny either.

BryanAug 14, 20081This is truly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The plot is nonsensical and predictable, the use of words like "gay" and "retard" is embarrassing, and of course it makes fun of midgets. I don't believe for a minute that it's supposed to be anti-bully. Just about EVERYTHING in the movie is terrible... except for "Howie." He made me chuckle once or twice.
-
-
Nov 30, 20119One hilarious movie, Happy Madison had done it again, it even manages to sneak some morals about not bullying others in with the laughs, if you are a fans of comedies then this is a must watch, it's just really fantastic, I highly recommend.
-
Feb 2, 20117If there is an award for adolecent, crude juvenile movies made for 13 year olds and younger, then the benchwarmers will take that reward proudly and won't look back.But if your in the mood for a crass,potty mouthed film filled with nonstop fart and diereah jokes,then you will enjoy it.
-
Jun 17, 20110A really crappy film. Although I did chuckle a few times, it was not enough to dignify sitting for some hour and a half. The movie is cliched, horribly acted, and horribly scripted. It fails on nearly all levels, and is not worth your time. See an actual comedy, and not this crap.
-
Nov 27, 20116The Benchwarmers is really funny. There were some parts where I simply could not stop laughing. It has some very memorable jokes that I may never forget.
-
Jan 22, 20125There are a lot of hilarious parts in the begining of the film yet it one again falls victim to the curse of sappy and corny comedies. The sappiness and cornyness definently hurt the film big time but I still enjoyed it for the most part.
-
Feb 20, 20123It started off good and it was funny but in the end it became just another terribly generic and stale comedy. I am really disapointed because it could have been a lot better then this.

38This formulaic mess of sports-movie cliches and self-esteem claptrap contains a couple of funny bits, but you have to slog through a lot of done-to-death bodily function jokes to get to them.
-
30You have to credit the filmmakers for at least acknowledging their level of dreck during the final credits, when Lovitz rhetorically asks, "This was a complete waste of time, wasn't it?"

40Under Dennis Dugan's rote direction, Schneider winds up playing straight man to Spade, who once again relies on his snarky coward shtick, and Heder, who comes across like someone doing a bad imitation of ... well, Heder himself in "Napoleon Dynamite."
