That was an excellent one.
So much average
A different way of telling a story
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Sure, this movie is not consistently funny, but there are several really funny jokes in the movie, as well as several other funny jokes. The jokes are inconsistent, but they are overall good.The jokes are mixed bag. There are really, really funny LOL jokes; there are funny jokes; there are slightly funny jokes; and there are dead jokes. There are many moments to this well-written film.Pros:+ Funny+ Good writing+ Some really good jokesCons:Lots of missed jokesInconsistency in jokesLast 20 minutes is not that funnyScore: 8-
Dodgeball is a movie about a group of misfits that enter a tournament to save their gym. Timing is everything in a comedy, so the editing in this film was very important, and they nailed it. I liked Vince Vaughn's character, for once he's not the prick or douche in a movie. Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller have a great chemistry. Their stature difference is also very funny. The movie has many classic comedic moments like the car wash or their first match with the girl scouts or the suitcase with a million dollars. Justin Long has one of the funniest slapstick moments. One of my favorite ones is the wrench thrown at him. It gets me every time. Hank Azaria as young Patches was genius casting. Though casting Christine Taylor as the girl that played better than everyone else was a bit cliché. There were awesome cameo appearances by Jason Bateman, David Hasselhoff, Lance Armstrong, William Shatner, Chuck Norris, and many more!Overall, it was a very fun movie and a comedy classic. 7/10
Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, Christine Taylor, Justin Long and Rip Torn star in this 2004 comedy. Vaughn plays Peter La Fleur, a mild-mannered guy who owns a gym where a group of his misfit friends workout. Soon, he meets bank lawyer, Kate Veatch (Taylor) who informs him that he's $50,000 in debt. Stiller plays despicable, fitness trainer, White Goodman who intends to buy Peter's gym from him. Peter decides to compete in a dodgeball tournament where the prize is $50,000 and White plays against him. Long (Jeepers Creepers) plays nerdy teen, Justin who is one of Peter's friends and Torn (Men in Black) plays former athlete, Patches O'Houlihan who helps Peter and his team. Gary Cole, Jason Bateman, Hank Azaria, William Shatner, Lance Armstrong and Chuck Norris also appear. This is a good comedy and Vaughn and Stiller are great in it. I recommend this.
Peter is an owner of a very average gym. But his rival gym is a super high-tech, fancy gym right across the corner.Peter must get 10,000 dollars to stop the evil owner of the other gym taking over his gym, and buying it. Peter, and his crew of people who go to his gym, see a dodge-ball tournament slot open for grabs. The prize: 10,000 dollars!Peter and his team barely make it through the first round, beating the Girl Scouts by disqualification because one of the Girl Scouts was using steroids. Ben Stiller is a great bad guy, and he proved it in this movie. It is very exciting to see Peter's team advance through the playoffs and eventually win the whole tournament.
