One of the funniest movies I have ever seen

Rating: Null/10 (14 November 2000)

This movie is brilliant. It's about a run down drunk of an ex bowler (Woody Harrelson) who won a state championship almost twenty years ago, but now he's barely making his rent money. He no longer bowls because he's missing his hand...so he's left with nothing but a hook. Thru a series of events, he meets up with Randy Quaid who plays a really stupid Amish guy who happens to be a very good bowler. Eventually they get together for an adventure thru the country, making their way to Reno, Nevada for a bowling championship. The movie is one of the funniest I have ever seen, and Harrelson is hilarious. If you buy the DVD version, it's rated R as opposed to the regular PG13 version, and I must say the R version is better. I think they have 17 mins of added footage on the DVD. A lot of people will see this movie is somewhat gross in spots, but I don't mind it at all, and I think it only goes to make it funnier. Vanessa Angel, who I know from Weird Science the USA series some years ago, is pretty funny in this movie as well. I think it's a gem, and I'd definitely give it a 10/10.
