We live in a land of idiots.

Rating: Null/10 (29 July 2004)

That must be the only explanation of why this movie is loved by so many. Vince Vaughn, while funny in Old School, gives a very unmotivated performance in this disgusting excuse for American cinema. Ben Stiller, pulling out one of his two characters in his arsenal, not only isn't funny, but makes you actually hate this man. I think I actually laughed more at watching CNN's coverage of the Democratic National Convention. I'm not sure what to think of a public who enjoys watching endless clips of a nerd getting hit with a ball. Or the idea of thinking that echoing a previous line (a la ben stiller) is funny! And the sad part is that I am not making this up. Two girls in front of me could not stop laughing at Stiller's mimicking characteristics. For the sake of our society, I hope they were high.
However, there is a bright side to all of this. If movies like "Dodgeball" can succeed in making tens of millions of dollars, a man like me with no experience in the field should be able to make a solid $10 million. All I have to do is mix a well-known cast with physical 'comedy' and I should be a shoe-in for Ben Stiller's next movie. Who cares if I let some 6th grader writes the script? As long as I add enough shots of people getting kicked, hit, or punched in the genitalia, I should be OK. Oh, and throw in a lesbian kiss between two hotties and I'll have 21st Century Fox drooling for the rights to my movie. I mean, if two hot women kissing is what it has come down to, then I think we have entered a new era of Hollywood bullcrap.
* out of **** (the one star thanks to that lesbian kiss.)
