Totally Vile

Rating: 1/10 (9 June 2006)

This has to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I went to a free sneak preview and I still felt like I should get my money back. Unless you think Jack Black is the funniest man alive, stay away. This is nothing but a vehicle for his shtick, and the rest is filler. See Jack sing! See Jack do funny voices! There's a very thin 'plot' that meanders and eventually loses track of itself. The majority of the film borrows from the lack of point in Napolean Dynamite and the hope that cute children will distract you from Black ala School of Rock. There's no character development, which is especially irritating when you have no idea what motivates the two main characters. I didn't enjoy a single moment of the entire thing. Unless you find polyester clothing the funniest thing since sliced cheese, the jokes are weak even for a small child.
