Soooo under rated

Okay yes this is just a goofy comedy movie, but its soo much funnier than 90% of the movies in the genre. I think its funnier than any of Sandler's comedies (I dont consider Punch Drunk Love in this category), funnier than anything schnider has done. I mean, It has a % out of 10 rating?? Come on.
Dave Chapelle, Norm Macdonald (who is such an under rated comic actor), Danny DeVtio, Sarah Silverman..I am superised its not way more popular than it is.

Just giving some props to a very funny and under appreciated movie. Any one out there agree with me? I wish Norm would be in more movies. This and Dirty Work are both absolutly hilarious, and he is allways funny in his supporting roles as well, such as in Billy Madison.

and obviously Chapelle should arise from the dead and start making us all laugh again.

Right there with you. Not quite as funny as "Dirty Work" (mostly due to 100% less Jack Warden content), but still way underrated. By the way, I just got another Norm fix over the weekend after watching Bob Saget's roast. I hadn't seen him in a long time, but I was crying laughing by the time he was done his set. Long Live Norm!

I rented this movie when I was 14 with a few friends when it first came out. We watched it late at night and ended up waking my friends parents from laughing so hard. The next day, the parents insisted on watching the film, which kept them up all night. Sadly they were upset and called us stupid for laughing so hard at this movie. Good times good times. I'm 22 now and still think this movie is hilarious.

Absolutely loved the movie! Dave Chappelle and Danny DeVito made it for me. Chappelle was clearly the funniest. I sure had LOL moments that people wouldn't even find funny. But yeah, I enjoy "smart" comedies on TV and on movies are rare. I didn't have anything else to do, I watched it while I didn't know what to expect and found some very hilarious stuff on it for my taste. Funny stuff.

I think Screwed, What's the Worst That Could Happen? and Bowfinger are all very very underrated comedies.

funny movie

Love this movie and Norm and Dave. BUT it needed something, IDK, something to make it a little tighter. Little better writing, editing, directing. I don't know. There is a little something missing that prevents this movie from being great.

I agree with these 3 funny actors it should have been a bit better. Still funny regardless. The writers and directors weren't really known for movies like this, could have been the reason.
