Rating: Summary: Funny as hell movie Review: "I was scared!" (desklamps) This is definately one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. It has so many jokes that it seems like it would just be one of those mindless comedies. but there is so much plot involved and twists to it that greatly enhances the movie. but the plot of set in such as way that it's very easy to keep up with. Norm McDonald is extremely funny. I don't know what all those other people are complaining about. I would definately recommend this movie to anyone.
Rating: Summary: So maybe it's not Shakespeare...I loved this! Review: "Screwed" has become nearly a national joke. People have criticized everything from lack of entertainment to more specific things like cinematography. I saw this movie last weekend and went into it not knowing what to expect. Knowing that Norm MacDonald was in it made me want to see it, but the reviews had been awful. After about 25 minutes, it wasn't all necessarily laugh out loud funny but more wry, chuckle-inducing humor. Then for some reason, events in the movie just seemed more funny to me than others in the theater. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars was because, okay maybe this isn't really deep stuff, but if you take off your sappy-movie watching (i.e., The Cider House Rules) glasses and watch for a minute through human eyes, even if it's just a guilty pleasure, you gotta admit, this is a pretty funny movie.

Rating: Summary: The only thing screwed about this movie... Review: ...is that it doesn't get the recognition it deserves. If your a fan of comedies such as Meet the Parents (Yawn!), Scary Movie* (In the name of all that is good and deacent, get it away!), and Big Daddy (Burn the TV and VCR! They've both been befouled!), then this isn't the movie for you. If you are a fan of the comedic styles of the Three Stooges, the late Chris Farley, and, of course, Norm MacDonald, then this is the movie to watch. It started out as a better version of Lost & Found and evolved into it's own movie. Take my advice, the scene where Norm get's muged by those two little kids is well worth watching the movie. I'm still trying to view a copy of Dirty Work, I havn't seen it yet and I want to! This is a good example of how great a Norm MacDonald movie can be.*I'm well aware of how bad of an example Scary Movie is, but it's a great example of how unfunny a movie can get if you take this type of humor too far.
Rating: Summary: A Very Stupid Movie... Review: But I love stupid movies! It isn't just a stupid movie though, it is a stupid funny movie. The whole plot is very humorous. Norm is a funny guy! It doesn't make sense to me why all the critics seem to hate it- I think it is a really good movie. The comedy in it isn't neccessarily fall-out-of-your-seat and laugh funny but it is a lot of fun to watch. If you were a fan of Norm from when he was on SNL, you will probably like this movie a lot- just like I do. I easily granted it the 5 out of 5 stars.
Rating: Summary: Poop is too funny Review: Come on, people! Are you from France? Don't you get it? This is a funny, dumb movie that works. It's trying to be funny. The dog blood on the wall, the behind the scene look at the rich old lady's business, Danny DeVito screaming, "I'm screwed!" Sorry, you uptight "serious film critic" this is worthwile.

Rating: Summary: The only thing Screwed about this movie is the bad reviews Review: I am a big fan of Norm MacDonald, and I really wanted to see tis movie as soon as possible. My friend saw it with his other friends. The next day I asked him if it was good. He said that he only saw about 5 minutes of the movie. I still wanted to see the movie, but my dad said to wait for it to come on video. I rented it as soon as possible and watched it. This movie was great! My friend obviously didn't stay to watch the whole movie. Maybe it was the beginning which he didn't like, well there was nothing wrong with it, because the story line was awesome. Norm McDonald and Dave Chappele do a great job.
Rating: Summary: a great comedy! Review: i bet the pepole who made this movie thought ok lets take a bunch of actors who usally play supporting roles and give them there own movie and it works well. if the movie was expected to do well they would put in theaters in febuary or post oscar or whatever.but i thought the situations were classic and funny.i really wish the dvd had more extras though!
