Not so damn bad

Rating: Null/10 (4 April 2001)

Night at the Roxbury is surprisingly entertaining. Maybe more so for me because I actually had a friend fix me up in one of those 80's style suits (Of course it was only 1990) to go pick up women. It didn't work but it makes for a damn funny movie. The characters are fleshed out as much as possible, Doug(Kattan) is the smart(er), weasely one, while Steve(Ferrell) is the dumb, lovable one. The two of them have some good moments together, especially when they're fighting. It will remind you of how you fought with your friends when you were younger. Like when you were 8.
Molly Shannon shows up and miraculously, is pretty funny. She's a horny broad from next door who tries to get Steve to "make out" with her all the time. Plus the guy who was in Scary Movie, Lochlyn Munro, plays Steve and Doug's trainer at the gym. He's always telling them how he's "very concerned about their triceps". And Chazz Palminteri is a club owner who asks everyone (even if they are clear across the room) "Did you just grab my ass?"
So anyfrigginwayz check this one out on cable. I don't know if I would say rent it because then expectations go up. Better to wait for the almost-free version. 2 stars out of 4.
