5/5 "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball."
  by Yoshi (Yoshi's Island)
This movie was awesome! The stars, Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller, are hilarious. The plot is a little... lame (Vince Vaughn's gym is going to be bought by Ben Stiller's, unless he can get enough money to keep the gym; one of the members of the crappy gym suggests they go into a dodgeball tournament.) but it makes up in its hilariousness. Just the characters are funny; there's one who thinks he's a pirate, another wants to impress a girl by going on the cheerleading team. In one part, they get the wrong box of team uniforms, and... well I won't tell you'll have to see. Basically this whole movie is funny, so see it!

5/5 What a comedy is supposed to be

I'm a little annoyed with all of the negative reviews for this movie, considering it is the funniest movie I have seen for a while. People are forgetting what a comedy's purpose in life is; to make people laugh. I was sitting in a large movie theater, full of people, who of all things, were laughing.

Ben Stiller plays a character, that yes, we may have seen before, but that's because he does it well. It works. Vince Vaughn plays your average joe, with an army full of hilarious sidekicks, what more do you need? How about some of the best cameo appearances I've seen. People need to stop thinking so much when they go to movies like this....just sit back and enjoy it! It's not going to change the world, but it made quite the impression on me!

5/5 I can't stop watching it!

i missed this sleeper comedy in the theater, but picked it up on a whim on DVD and let me say, it is a well crafted, fun, hilarious movie! Vince Vaughan is my hero and can't wait for Wedding Crashers! Anyhow, if you love dark humor movies like Napoleon Dynamite and Dumb & Dumber, you will love this one!

4/5 It Had Some Classic Moments
  by Dan Blankenship (Lowell, IN USA)
Okay, this movie is definitely a film you will remember. What I liked most about this movie is it seems like three people wrote it, with all three of them trying to approach comedy from a different angle. This movie fluctuates from sophisticated comedy, slapstick comedy, and stoopid' comedy as much as an MTV music video (when they actually play videos) switches camera angles. Yet somehow this movie makes it work.

Ben Stiller is great in his role as the self-centered owner of Globo Gym. This is one of those characters who becomes so obnoxious during the film, that you can't wait to see him fall; that means the director did a very good job.

Vince Vaughn also pulled his job off as the owner of the smaller gym next to Globo Gym that Stiller's character can't wait to acquire. He is best when he has the quite and mellow guy role; this movie fit him like a glove.

The beginning of this movie is a bit slow. But hang in there, it does pick up. By the end of the movie, I had laughed quite a bit. My only complaint is that they included a lot of sexual references and profanity that really wasn't important to the comedy or storyline. I still haven't figured out why producers and directors do this; maybe it is for the shock-value teenagers might be seeking...

I gave it four stars only because it starts off a little slow and it would have been just as good without the raunchy stuff.

See ya next review.

5/5 A wonderfully stupid movie!
  by M. J. Chipman (St. Louis, MO)
I guess my husband and I just don't have the sophistication needed to appreciate "films," because this movie is just our type! We actually had to stop the DVD a couple of times to compose ourselves. My stomach hurt so much from the wrench-throwing and car-dodging scenes. I know it's stupid, but it totally cracked us up! If you want to watch something that requires no thinking but entertains you to the max, give this one a try.
