Rating: Summary: Just hilarious! Review: While many people in my life have just stared at this movie in horror, most eventually agree (however reluctantly) that it is divinely hilarious. The plot isn't brilliant, the dialogue isn't brilliant, but it's so strange and unique that it captures something truly funny and truly wonderful. I've nearly killed my copy through watching it so frequently. Jerry O'Connell is a great choice and pulls off a great performance for working with roaches, both real and computer-generated. And the music... Nothing can describe the music. Everyone should see this movie at least once.
Rating: Summary: A hilarious over-the-top spoof! Not for mainstreamers... Review: While not deathless art, this IS a fabulous, one-of-a-kind, superlatively silly flick. Joe is a superbly naive and earnest corn-fed Iowa hunk with absolutely no clue of personal hygiene. When he moves into a roach-infested New York apartment (is that redundant?), his fellow tenants - the roaches - are overjoyed.The acting/direction is excellent, and the whimsical music is extremely enjoyable. Of course, if you have an insect phobia, the screens full of roaches, dancing and otherwise, just may make your skin crawl! It did mine! But this is still a very funny and well-made wacky little film.
Rating: Summary: A sequel, please!!! Review: You don't have to be a teenage boy to love this thing. My wife and I just watched it on cable and she insists that I get the DVD. We're both 64 and anything but gross.
