Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great, especially Seth Green
Review: I read a few of the other reviews for Idle Hands, and Im really suprised that so many people dont like it. This is one of my favourite films-ok, its cheesy, but that just makes it even more funny. Admitedly, it isnt for everyone, but even if youre not a fan of the film, you cant say anything about the acting-especially Pnub and Mick. Seth Green, yet again, single handedly brings this film from a 3/5 to 5/5 for me-I know everyones said this , but it is true. Also, this film managed to grab celebrities for cameos- the Offspring and Tom from Blink182-which you dont often see.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Do NOT Bother.
Review: This movie was the ABSOLUTE Worst movie that I have ever seen. Do NOT buy this movie, and Do NOT spend 3.00 to rent it. This movie had a Horrible plot and it was just blood and gore and BAD acting.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Tons of fun!
Review: Rodman Flender delivers a very funny movie. Yes, this is the movie where Seth Green proclaims "I'm Leatherface." This DVD is loaded with extras including deleted scenes and a making of documentary, plus a unique storyboard sequence. This is NOT a horror film. It is a comedy set against the backdrop of the horror genre and it succeeds at every point. Sure to be a cult classic.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: BLOODY HANDS ....
Review: Well, all you'll get watching this freak movie is a little bit of gore ( bad special effects, by the way .. )and some young actors who seem to be wearing skirts yet ... Sad. Skip it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: WHAT IS THIS !
Review: Some fellow below said this is the best movie ever ....Uau... THis is a dishonest "horror" movie, taking some bad teen actors, adding some badly produced gore, making funnyless jokes all around ... Everyhting failed miserably here ( and I like to watch ridiculous horror movies, like "SCREAMS", "NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET",etc, just for the sake of laughing ). But this one is so bad, I almost ejected the tape from my VCR in the middle of it. A shame that actor so young accept to shoot this kind of garbage.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: WHAT A WASTE OF TIME !!!!
Review: THis movie is ridiculous. Even watching it as a black-horror comedy, it is horrible. To show gore is the only goal of the movie and even this fails, because the special effects are stupid. This could be a "trash" or "B" movie great picture, but everyone involved (teen actors, director, etc) are uninspired. This was a shame to the horror genre, which already is full of prejudices against it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Likable comedy/horror film.
Review: Director Rodman Flender did certainly have a good time making the film. He does good tribute from anothers clut classics like Evil Dead 2:Dead by Dawn, Re-Animator, An american werewolf in london and some another movies. It has a cast, we certainly like in this kind of picture, Devon Sawa(Final Destiantion), Seth Green(Stephen King`s It), Elden Henson(The Migthy), Jessica Alba(The upcoming series Dark Angel for Fox), Jack Noseworhty(Event Horizon) and Vivica A. Fox(Independance Day). Good looking gory make-up effects by Greg Cannon(Mrs Doubtfire, Stephen KIng`s Thinner, The Mask, Bicentennial Man). What i like about the film, it`s has a lot of good jokes almost all thought the movie with some moments of fun highlight this underrated picture. DVD has fun commentary track by the film director and the two actors from the film:Green and Helson. Including the original ending, is also quite good and it`s got an separate commnetary track by the director, he said that ending was in the wrong movie and didn`t have the same tone of humour with it. Excellent Dolby Digital 5.1 Sound and a fine anamorphic Widescreen(1.85:1)transer picture quality.

Travia:The hand is played by Christopher Hart, who also played:Thing in the Addams Family Films.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: my favorite movie
Review: Devon Sawa,Seth Green,and Elden Henson were all cool,but Jack Noseworthy and Vivica A. Fox annoyed me.Halloween is the best time to watch this movie.I watched this with a bunch of friends last Halloween and we all loved it! the scares are pretty old but the jokes ARE NOT! too bad they deleted the old ending.in the deleted ending theres a huge hellfire thing when the hand dies and in the real one,the hand just shakes and dissapears in two seconds which was pretty stupid but Seth Green made it funny when it happened.so let me just say the deleted ending was more scary and the real one is more funny.I'm gonna watch that movie right now! so see this

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Dumber and Dumbest, but funny.
Review: I fully agree with the Amazon reviewer's opinion that the movie is just an excuse to string together silly gags and gross-out gore. I'm not sure that makes it a horrible film. Hey, Dead Alive and Evil Dead, classics of the genre, are built from the same formula. They do it smarter and funnier, but Idle Hands is not without its charms.

You've got the Seth Green factor (I'd watch Spiceworld II: The wrath of Ginger if he was in it), the Dexter from Offspring getting slaughtered factor, the giant-fan-as-teen-blender factor, the Vivica Fox as martial arts demon hunting babe factor, the scantily clad Jessica Alba factor.

In other words, you've got your funny, you've got your bloody, and you've got your sexy, all in one cheesy package. If the ending wasn't so horrifically bad, I'd give this one five stars (Some DVDs have the original ending, which I haven't seen). It ain't Citizen Kane, but you know that already. If you're a fan of the genre -- B comedy-horror flicks -- this is a worthwhile entry.

Rating: 5 stars
