Rating: Summary: Bad Press? Review: If you're not already a fan of Tom Green, this movie won't persuade you to become one. That said, you have to really be a Tom Green fan to understand the twisted humor in "Freddy Got Fingered". I've been following Tom since his move to MTV in January 1999 and this movie is by far the best thing Tom has pulled off since the "Tom Green Cancer Special".Too many people now in days want "sophisticated" comedy. Well, you won't find it here. The range of jokes span from swinging a newborn baby over his head by the umbilical chord to spraying his dad with elephant semen. It's typical Tom Green fashion that you'll only get if you've come to expect this from the Canadian comic. And that might be the joke. For Tom to make a completely ridiculous movie just to attack all the people who DON'T get the joke. And, judging by the press reviews, it worked. This movie is hilarious though! You might have to see it a few times for it to really grow on you, but it's just as funny as any other movie brought about in the last few years that caused bad press and/or controversy (i.e. Dogma, Scary Movie). It's been five months since I seen this movie and I already want the DVD!!! So, pick it up. This is a good thing to hold fans over until he returns to MTV next year.
Rating: Summary: funny Review: it is funny. don't think about it. just watch it.
Rating: Summary: Don't believe the bad press Review: I think this deserves to be reviewed again after 10 years. I believe it will be understood more over time and become a classic of the cinema. If you haven't seen it, wait until you have some time to watch it twice, because when it's over, you'll want to see it again.
Rating: Summary: I'M A FARMER! Review: Hey... so may other movies have danced around using animals sexually in their plots (although, the horse scene in cheech and chong's "The corsican brothers" was quite good). Only Tom Green and his previous history of suckling from live cows could pull it off so well. I think those that DON'T like Tom Green should NEVER see this movie. Tom wanks a horse and knocks his dad over with an elephants load. Movies such as this are evidence that FINALLY the old codgers that USED to not let ANYTHING questionable through the rating system have finally started dropping dead. LONG LIVE TOM GREEN! Buy this dvd!
Rating: Summary: A Movie Adeventure Review: I really enjoyed this movie it was really well done and well preformed. I am a huge fan of Tom Greens and I think that he was wonderfull in Road Trip, Freddy Got Fingered, and of course his own show. Tom Green alwyas makes me laugh and I really like him a lot. As I said before this was an amazing movie and I hope I can own it really soon!
Rating: Summary: One of the best comedies ever. Review: O.k. critics dogged on this movie and I will tell you it's not for everyone. If you are one of them people that love long , dragged 3 hours dramas then stay away from this one. But if you are a sick person like myself that laughs when a boy gets hit repeatetly, and find a man covered with elephant semen funny then see this film. Without a doubt one of the funiest films I have ever seen. Loved scary movie? You'll love Freddy....
Rating: Summary: Mind-Provoking slice of cinema Review: I have always been a fan of those kind of movies that make you think...like "Sixth Sense," "Blair Witch Project,""A Clockwork Orange," in fact..pretty much any movie by Stanley Kubrick. This film is another great example of a smart and savvy film. Tom Green co-wrote this flick, which is just soaked with intelligent humor and wit, whether it be the thought-provoking scenes like the one where Mr. Green chews through an umbilical cord..or where he licks his friends' compound fracture. This flick has a lot of serious moments, as well. One of the most dramatic scenes in this film is when his dad shoves Tom's artwork ..., and then orders him to pleasure him. So if you are in need of a thought-provoking flick, please pre-order "Freddy Got Fingered"....you won't be sorry.
Rating: Summary: Like Tom Green? You'll Love This!! Review: I really don't want to give anything away that happened in the movie. Tom Green gets away with everything possible that he was not able to get away with in his show, "The Tom Green Show". If your a fan of his show on MTV, you must get this movie. It's like watching south park on comedy central, then watching the South Park movie because the movie wasn't edited. Except "Freddy Got Fingered" had everyone constantly laughing. You know it's a funny movie when people can't stay in their seats at the cinimas, because they are on the ground crying do to the non-stop comedy. If I had kids, there would be no way I'd let them watch it. It has some very, very sexual scenes. Some are not even...well, how can I say "just plan sick"(But that was why it was funny). Once again, I don't want to give anything away that happens. But my favorite scene was when Tom's dad was chasing him, and he "used" the elephant to protect him....
Rating: Summary: One Of The Worst Of the year Review: I had high hopes going into this movie and was very dissapointed. It wasn't funny at all and I ferlt sick watching it. I don't reccomend it to anyone with a weak stomach.
Rating: Summary: Freddy ain't funny Review: People are surprised when I tell them how much of a fan I am of Tom Green. I know that as bizarre as he acts, intelligence and wit lurks in the shadows. It is sometimes seen on his MTV television show, but not even close when it comes to Freddy Got Fingered. This flick lacks the candid-ness of the t.v show. The jokes are mostly stupid and solely in the film for shock value. Most of you will say, "Well, all that Tom Green is, is shock value". And feel that way if you must, but this time around,if it ever does, it doesn't work, and neither does the pathetic subplot or B rated star cameos.
