Crappy film
brilliant actors, brilliant editing
The acting in this movie is really good.
I am honestly surprised at the low ratings of this movie . it is a hilarious comedy and it really does not deserve such ratings . It is really funny , from the start to finish . the idea is new , the jokes are cool , may be a little on the animal side .
The Animal (2001): Dir: Luke Greenfield / Cast: Rob Schnieder, Colleen Haskell, John C. McGinley, Cloris Leachman, Ed Asner: Nauseous images of a grown man sniffing someone's butt in search of drugs. Film addresses communication urges from within with sick references to bestiality. Rob Schneider plays a cop in training who is in an accident where a rock crushes his car. The effect here look about as hideous as a roll of toilet paper bouncing off the car. A scientist patches him up using animal parts, which gives him unusual tendencies. Colleen Haskell plays an animal shelter employee impressed with his ability to allow birds to feed out of his gaping mouth. Concludes with dead bodies and a horrid plot twist. Schneider is alarmingly gross as dinner for two involves urination under the table. He also licks his crotch and seduces a goat. Haskell makes little impression despite the one key revelation she is involved in. John C. McGinley plays a rival cop investigating the murders and will get his just desserts in typical disgusting fashion. Finally there is Cloris Leachman appearing to remind us that she is far better than this. Directed by Luke Greenfield who must have thought he had an idea to present but like any potential idea it needs a followup screenplay that rises above formula as oppose to the gutter. Unfortunately it turned disgustingly savage and should be fed to lions. Score: 2 / 10
I'm not really sure why so many people seem to have a collective downer on this movie. It's a comedy for crying out loud. Are they really expecting Oscar winning acting, or expecting people to walk away shaking their heads in amazement? I personally believe the people that dislike this are people with superiority complexes whom don't know their ass from their elbow. How hard is it to sit down with a beer and relax, take something on it's own merits rather than make a conscious effort to try and feel intellectually superior to it. And whilst I agree I didn't love it, I still liked and respected it for it's own value.
The Animal (2001)5 word summary Loser cop gets animal powerNow I don't wanna sit here and lie and say this is a good movie, because its not, and it deserves the low ratings that it has. However, it does have some cheap fun laughs such as the reverse racism, and sniffing peoples butts, and John C McGinley. And if you're young like I was when I first saw it, or drunk you probably will find some humor in it. If you are looking for a good movie look elsewhere. If you like Rob Schneider films such as Deuce Bigalow, The Hot Chick, Benchwarmers, then most likely you will enjoy this film, if you hated those films you will definitely hate this one because it is probably the worst out of those four. So again it does have some good, cheap jokes and is humorous at times as long as you can look past the bad acting. Have a few beers and perhaps you will enjoy it. 7/10
