Summary: "I Heard your sister is going out with Squeek"
Review: This is a terrific story of two friends and their struggle as they go from losers to athletes on the national level within a few years. This movie made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me not hate Ernest Borgnine as much. This may not be Trey & Matt's best movie, but it definately is a heart-warming and compelling tragic story or whatever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Most Underrated Comedy of last ten years
Review: Trey Parker and Matt Stone, while obviously very funny men, are extremely underrated in their ability to direct movies. This fact is no more true than in BASEketball. Anybody who tells you that this movie is dumb is lying to themselves. You will most certainly enjoy Robert Stack's part in the film. You may remember Stack from Unsolved Mysteries on lifetime. If you think his voice is funny, you'll love it when he says the f-word about five times in this movie. I will say that this is almost certainly a rental for most people.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Funny
Review: This movie is incredibly funny. The south park guys do have a life out side of south park. This movie will make you laugh out loud several times. I gave it four stars because, its not one of those movies thats so funny you have to rewind to the best part and watch it again. All the jokes are equally funny. I would reccomend to rent this first and if you like it buy it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Perfect Fun Comedy
Review: This movie is a lot of fun! You will still be laughing at the jokes a week after seeing the movie. There's no way to describe it except to say that it's funny. It's funny and it doesn't talk down to you. This movie will make you happy no matter what.

The dvd extras are good as well. The theatrical trailer gets you excited for the movie, the music video is cool, and a spotlight on location sequence answers any questions you have about this movie.

The trick to liking BASEketball is to watch it the right time of day. I'd say, start it before 8pm. Otherwise, it will seem too long. Watch it earlier and you'll wish it were longer! And make sure to watch with friends and be prepared to have a great time.

Summary: They have a life outside South Park
Review: What do you get when you combinded basketball and baseball, you get Baseketball. And the creaters of South Park star in this movie, I didn't know who was who when I watched htis movie nor did I laugh once. And seems to me that Trey Parker and Matt Stone love to make shows and movies about pottyed mouth characters. South Park, you have 4 kids, that hang out together and swear a lot and making jokes, and love to make thier teachers mad. But then again, how come this movie is live action and not animated. As the movie opens, young Joeseph Cooper and Doug Remer are at Yankee Stadium, and Coop catches Reggie Jackson's 3rd homerunm in the game. When Coop (Trey Parker) and Dog Remer (Matt Stone) are older, they invent a sport that combines baseball and basketball, and they name it Baseketball which starts as a street yard game, but hten gets discoverd by a billonaire named Theodore Denslow (Ernest Borgnine), but they agree to make it a pro sport if no player gets traded, teams not get moved from city to city, and no making deals on merchandising. They play for a team named Milwaukee Beers. And when Denslow dies during a game, Cooper is named the new owner of the team. And if they doing have a winning season or win the championship, the team has to leave the league. I don't sse what is the problem with either trading or moving teams from one city to another, there have bene a lot of real life teams that have done that. Bob Costas and Al Michaels play themselves who are the announcers for the Beers. If you are a big fan of Trey Parker and Matt Stone, then you are denfily going to have to watch this movie, and if you are not, well you will have to find something else to do.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great comedy classic
Review: If you're looking for a good 90 minutes of non-stop laughter, look no further. This is it, BASEketball is a great film. Not Trey, Matt, and Dian's best. That one goes to "Cannibal The Musical", but this one is great because it's very touching and you really learn alot about the ... that goes on in professional sports that really is destroying what they game is really about. I think this film was done really well. I just wish that people wouldn't fall over every time they got psyched out. I really don't get it. But, anyway, GREAT MOVIE!!!!!!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Hilarious, with a couple flaws
Review: This movie had me rolling at times, but the PsycheOuts got a little lame because each PsycheOut not only made the player miss the basket, but for some reason they fall over every time. I don't get why the players keep falling over.

Squeak got on my nerves too.

The scene of Matt Stone and Trey Parker rubbing tongues in homosexual erotica was the sole reason for the 3 star rating though. I don't know if that scene was supposed to be funny or shocking, but it was neither. It was disgusting, revolting, and completely ruined the rest of the movie. Beware.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: never gets old
Review: I've watched this movie millions of times. it never gets old to me. the jokes are just so priceless you can't say something like "oh that wasn't very funny" b/c these guys pioneered comedy for my generation. South Park was their most successful creation, followed by this movie. their other attempts weren't as popular but still valiant efforts. this movie helped get SP noticed more.

the best parts are the psych outs. totally classic material. the fat lyposuctioned out of Marlon Brandos rear...ew

highly recommended if you love south park like i do.
also check out Orgazmo, classic, one of their best.

later

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Crude, Rude Comedy!
Review: This movie is very funny. I suggest that you see it. South Park creators Parker and Stone bring this hilarious movie to life. The movie is about two guys (Parker and Stone) that create a game called baseketball, which is free from the corruption that plagues the other major league sports. When he (Parker) inherits his team from the team owner after he dies, he is pressured in to selling the team to another team owner that wants to make baseketball all of the things it was created not to be. This leads to troubles with many laughs along the way. I highly recommend this movie if you are a fan of South Park or any movies that are like "The Naked Gun" or "Airplane!"

See this movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funnier than South Park
Review: BASEketball was written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone who also play the main characters in the film. You maybe thinking where you've heard their names before. They are the creators of South Park, the hilarious american comedy.

BASEketball shows that Parker and Stone can do much more than write cartoons. It is a very funny film in which they invent a game called Baseketball. It is a cross between baseball and basketball, and they invented it so they can win at it. The newly-found sport takes off and soon everyones playing it countrywide. But will they sell out to make more money, or keep the game how it should be?

It is a very simple film to understand, and is one of the funniest films i've ever seen. The jokes keep on coming and even if you don't like South Park that gives you no reason to not like this as it's completly different. It is much under-rated and if you haven't seen it yet i suggest you rent it NOW!
