I am sure Monty Python's "killer joke" was written by a Farrelly

Rating: 9/10 (19 June 2001)

So what if this movie is crude or "low-brow"? Funny is funny. In my humble opinion, if I laugh non-stop while watching a COMEDY, then it is a great movie, whether it is "My Man Godfrey", "Some Like It Hot" or "Dumb And Dumber". And now, "Kingpin". To me, the Farrelly Brothers are god-like. After my boyfriend and I went to see this in the theater (we swear we saw the R-rated one) we quoted it for days. Bill Murray is absolutely hilarious, as usual. I loved Randy Quaid as "The Kid", and Vanessa Angel was fine too, but I gained new respect for Woody Harrelson for allowing himself to be seen looking so BAD. He is very funny, but also very touching at times. The Farrelly Bros. always populate their movies with lovable losers, so I actually care what happens to them. They also appear to be squeamish about their characters showing too much emotion, like little boys would, which is fine with me. Leave the schmaltz for Robin Williams!
