Nerds Rule!!!

Rating: 9/10 (11 April 2006)

In my humble opinion, this is one of the best movies of the year. A trio of nerds (Spade, Heder, and Schneider) play against several "jocks" in a series of baseball games.
In The Benchwarmers, Gus (Rob Schneider) has a very serious role as The Benchwarmers' team captain. Along with the Mama's boy Clark (John Heder) and the very crude, dorky Richie (David Spade), The Benchwarmers deliver a great message to the nerd in all of us.
Rated PG-13 for crude and suggestive humor and language, be aware of what you take the youngest kids to see. However, if that does not bother you or them, this is a great movie to let kids see. It teaches if you believe in yourself and your abilities, you can surmount the greatest obstacles in your life.
The Benchwarmers delivers a fast-paced, gut-wrenching 80 minutes of laughs.
This movie does actually have a storyline, so expect to pay attention. Gus, Richie, and Clark are on a roll, helping the nerds when their new stadium. But, wait!!! One of The Benchwarmers may not be who he appears. Will The Benchwarmers be able to overcome this obstacle? Just for the intended message and the humor, I give this movie a 9/10. I absolutely loved it and believe you will, too.
I hope this review helped you out,
