Summary: BLACK, ZAHN, & BIGGS
Review: If anybody is worthy to inherite the torch of Jim Belushi it's Jack Black, the guy is brilliant. Steve Zahn (check out Joy Ride and a smaller killer film "Safemen") is also one of the best comedy actors working today. There are both a great team and add a lot to this underrated film. Biggs seems to have found a home for himself playing the straight man, he does it well. Good cast!
The Neil Diamond stuff is priceless. The movie is funny despite what all the nay-sayers are telling you. Enjoy!

Summary: The most underated movie ever....
Review: I dont know what the critics had in their drinks when they saw this movie... this movie had me in tears. Maybe because they saw the pg-13 movie instead of the R. Anyway... I'll recommend this movie to anyone who just wants something to laugh. If your just into comdies or cronically depressed... BUY THIS!!

Summary: Crazy
Review: Steve Zaun and Jack Black make a killer team. Lots of laughs and this verison has parts not in the original. Amanada Peet does a hell of a job in this, and has perfected the stuck up pretty girl role. Well worth buying.

Summary: Inoffensive fun
Review: This was an amiable and not that repulsive comedy about two friends who try to save one of their own from marriage. JD (Jack Black) and Wayne (Steve Zahn) have nothing against marriage, but their bud Silverman (Jason Biggs) is to be hitched to the beautiful and evil Judith Fessbeggler (Amanda Peet). Judith (don't call her Judy) is an intelligent and ascerbic psychologist and a major control freak. Though once lusting after powerful and assertive men (I won't spoil the scene which changed her tune) Amanda sets her sights on men she can dominate - and Silverman is like a hand-puppet to her. When Judith and Silverman decide to hitch (he'll take her name) she moves to quickly cut him off from Wayne and JD - losers who've progressed little since high-school (Wayne is works in pest control, though JD seems to be barely employed and spends most of the day noshing cheetos on the oversized dump they share; because Silverman is the least repulsive of the three of them, he is like their link to the outside world, and the only one willing to sing well for their horrible band). When they by chance run into Sandy Percus (Amanda Detmer), Silverman's high-school sweetheart, they hatch a plan to secretly secrete Judith and replace her in Silverman's affections with the sweet Sandy. Time is running out though - with Sandy in line to become a nun. Meanwhile, hidden away in JD and Wayne's basement, Judith manages to be all too able to turn the tables on her captors - proving to be worse than JD and Wayne's assessment of her as Darth Vader (with a better body).This was a raucous comedy, but not that hysterical and not anywhere near as offensive as it makes itself out. Amanda Peet is excellent as the evil Judith while Steve Zahn and Jack Black are priceless as the losers Wayne and JD. The flick even tosses in R. Lee Ermy as a cheerfully psychotic high-school coach (I'm only learning now how busy he's been since Vincent D'onofrio killed him in "Full Metal Jacket") and Neil Diamond as...himself. If the flick fails at anything, it fails to prove how smart it could be despite its raucosness (like "Something About Mary" which was a grossout with no shortage of surprises). The flick builds up the relationship between Sandy and Silverman, but it's lame. There's also a brimming relationship between Wayne and Judith, but that doesn't rise above the running gag of the flick until the last few minutes. Still, "Saving Silverman" was enough fun to save a Saturday night rental.

Summary: I can't stand these new Hollywood movies anymore
Review: being entertained by this movie is like laughing at people who have unfortunate miserable problems. That untalented pie lover (Jason Biggs) from "American Pie" stars in it, as a non-dimensional character, along with Amanda Pest, who plays his psychotic controlling girlfriend. The same movie "comedy" formula that has been used since 1991 makes it very predictable. Bathroom humor, heh heh.. seen that B4.

Summary: Jack Black At His Best
Review: ... The storyline was indeed a bit cheesy, ditch the evil girlfriend, set him up with the nun, you know, your typical love story. But Jack Black made me keel over laugning. Not so much the things he says, but the way he says them, Jack Black is my favorite actor. Pete Zahn was great too, but I've never really like Jason Biggs. Amanda Peet did her job well, even if her job was just to be evil and hot at the same time. But lets get back to the point. If you like Jack Black, even the slightest bit, you have to get this movie. Jack needs more leading roles, but this will do, because he steals the show. A great movie for sitting around with your friends, drinkin a beer. 4 out of 5 stars, one off for the cheesy story, but you could almost add that star back just for Jack Black's acting.

Summary: Absolutely hilarious!!
Review: This movie is one of the funniest comedies of all time. While I'm not the biggest Jason Biggs fan, Jack Black and Steve Zahn are masters. Steve Zahn can play any character, he is very talented. Amanda Peet rocks too. This is just a must see. It will have you rolling, especially the second, third and fourth times. Watch this movie.

Summary: Funny!
Review: This is a funny movie, inlcuding the time Jack Black says, "I'm gay," and the coach said "I'm gay too." Why Jason Biggs, and that girl, Steve Zahn, and Amanda Peet, Jack Black, and the coach, should have been nominated for "Best Kiss." I give it a ***** (5 out of 5).

Summary: OK, the movie was strange but I liked it
Review: I am not even going to attempt to go into any detail about the plot of this crazy movie. A strange trio of friends is about to lose one member to marriage, and to make it worse, his fiancee is clearly not the right match for him. Thus, the other two go through all sorts of wild antics, including kidnapping the fiancee, to prevent the marriage. This strange movie is actually very funny if you can get into wild humor. What really makes this movie is that Neil Diamond appears in it and he shows that he is a great sport with a lot of self depratory humor. The three friends happen to be fanatical Neil Diamond fans (good lord, they are just like me) and this movie is so convoluted and strange that the director actually manages to fit him into the plot. Neil was absolutely great in his cameo role and he elevates a funny,but sophomoric movie to 5 stars. Way to go Neil!!!!
