Big Ups to Ben Stiller.. Who put his career on the line and saved a movie by acting perfectly as a great idiot!

Rating: 10/10 (8 March 2006)

Dodgeball was one of my favorite movies. You know why it was? It was because I love my Ben Stiller in free-range mode, ready to do anything at any given time. Vince Vaughn, Christine Taylor, and Rip Torn were also very good. With backup roles like Hank Azaria, Gary Cole and Jason Bateman as co-hosts for the Dodgeball tournament, and Lance Armstrong making an appearance to inspire a character in the movie, you can't go wrong. The slapstick in this comedy is uproarious, completely showing all of the talents young actors and veterans can display with improvisational talent. The Dodgeball quarrell between Average Joe's and the Purple Cobras is a great scene because it really shows how Ben Stiller was the absolute perfect role as White Goodman. Ben has that charm that allows him to act perfectly arrogant, conceided disdainful as his character. He has that condescending look to him that gives movie viewers the note that he is the bad guy in the movie, without a doubt.
Overall "Dodgeball, A True Underdog Story" is a great movie for anyone who is ready to laugh at a truly remarkable performance, alongside other brilliant but subtle performances. Dodgeball will make you laugh, cry, and pee in your pants every delirious step of the way.
