Very funny

Rating: 8/10 (2 December 2004)

** HERE BE SPOILERS **
White Goodman (Stiller) is running an aggressive, elitist gym. The gym is economically successful and Goodman is looking to take over Peter LaFleur's (Vaughn) Average Joe gym across the street. Only very few odd customers visit Average Joe gym and business is extremely bad. In fact, LaFleur is short $50000 and Goodman is about to finally take over the business. The Average Joe crew has only one chance to save their gym, to enter a Dodgeball tournament with $50000 in prize money.
The story is not great, but the little mishaps and adventures the crew experiences, along with odd characters and great cameos, make this a hilarious movie. Ben Stiller is great as Goodman (I have a hard time imaging anyone else that could make that role better). Vaughn and the other are also good, and especially Alan Tudyk as Steve the Pirate is really good. Otherwise, it is the little things that make this a good movie, as mentioned the story is not great, and unfortunately it is a little too predictable to merit a higher grade. But a must see nonetheless.
8/10
