The lowest form of wit, but the funniest form of humor.

Rating: Null/10 (17 September 2002)

This movie is whithout doubt a true modern classic and a masterpiece of its genre. It doesn't mater how many times you view this film, you still find it hilarious; simply because you see something new every time you watch it.
I'd like to say the acting is superb, but I can't help thinking that the rolls weren't exactly much of a stretch on either Daniels of Carey. They both just seemed to by playing themselves, thats how naturally they've taken to the parts of the two buffoons, Harry and Loyd.
The humor in this film is deliciously crude and wickedly entertaining. Think of Loyd igniting his flatulence, or the traffic cop drinking urine from beer bottles. The movie also contains what I believe to be one of the funniest simple and understated shots of all time; Harry sitting in a mood at the side of the road with just a hint of backside cleavage showing - side splittingly funny!
If you don't like slapstick and crude jokes then your opinion may be slightly different, but if we're all honest with ourselves its slapstick and crude jokes that really makes you laugh out loud. Think of it this way: when you watch The Simpsons you find the witty gags and satirical humor amusing, but when Homer hits his head on a low door frame, thats when you physically laugh.
A hugely entertaing comedy with a laugh every minute and no emotional baggage. Watch it with your gran and see who long she can hide the mirth.
ddn gives this film 9.5/10 for no other reason than if I gave it 10 you'd think I was over hyping it.
