Plot synopsis:
Unemployed 28-year-old cartoonist Gordon "Gord" Brody leaves his parents' home in Portland, Oregon, to pursue his lifelong ambition of obtaining a contract for an animated television series. His parents give him a car in which he drives to Los Angeles and starts work at a cheese sandwich factory. Gord shows his drawings to Dave Davidson, the CEO of a major animation studio; Davidson tells him that the artwork is not bad, but that the concepts depicted, including a vigilante "X-Ray Cat", are nonsensical. Disheartened, Gord quits his job and returns to his parents.
Gord's father Jim constantly insults and belittles him following his return, telling him to forget about being an animator and "get a job." When Gord pressures his friend Darren into skating on a wooden half-pipe he has built outside the Brody home, Darren falls and breaks his leg. At the hospital Gord impersonates a doctor, delivers a baby, and meets an attractive wheelchair-bound nurse—Betty, who has an obsessive penchant for fellatio and an ambition to create a rocket-powered wheelchair. Jim also disparages Betty. After a heated display, Jim smashes Gord's half-pipe, and Gord and his parents go to a family therapy session. There, Gord falsely accuses Jim of "fingering" Gord's younger brother, Freddy. The 25-year-old Freddy is sent to a home for sexually molested children while Gord's mother Julie leaves Jim, and ends up dating the basketball player Shaquille O'Neal. While in a drunken stupor, Jim tells Gord how much of a disappointment he is to him. Affected by Jim's words, Gord decides to abandon his aspirations to be a cartoonist and gets a job at a local sandwich shop.
After seeing a television news report on Betty's successful rocket-powered wheelchair, Gord is inspired to pursue his dreams once again. He returns to Hollywood with a concept based on his relationship with his father: an animated series called Zebras in America. While Gord is pitching this to Davidson, Jim bursts in and trashes Davidson's office. Thinking Jim's actions are part of Gord's pitch, Davidson greenlights Zebras in America and gives Gord a million-dollar check. Gord spends a quarter of that money to thank Betty elaborately for inspiring him, and the remainder to relocate the Brody house to Pakistan with his father inside, unconscious—a response to Jim's earlier put-down that "If this were Pakistan, you would have been sewing soccer balls when you were four years old!"
Gord and Jim soon come to terms, but are then abducted and held hostage. The kidnapping becomes a news item, as Gord's series has already become popular. After 18 months in captivity, Gord and Jim return to America, where a huge crowd welcomes them home.

Review: Not only is this the worst movie I have ever seen, it makes other pieces of s**t like Dude Wheres My Car look like Gladiator.
Don't get me wrong, I think Tom Green can be funny, but you can only be so stupid.
The worst thing that happened was this movie got an R rating, that allowed Tom Green to utilize the grossest and unfunny stuff his mind could muster, and the whole baby scene, i wanted to go see any other movie immediately.
If anyone knows a movie that is worse let me know, because I would like to hear it.PS:  Note to Tom Green, Animal dick is never funny.
But second, he betrayed what I think was the main aspect of it's appeal - the fact that it was improvised (although he really doesn't have a knack for improv) & it took people by surprise.Here, he does exactly the kind of things people expect Tom Green to do on his show.
The trailer looked mildly entertaining and I've seen a few skits with Tom Green that were funny and thought he was pretty funny in "Charlie's Angels".
(Which I had seen in its entirety on the weekend before)  I felt better about switching movies but felt badly that I couldn't have taken my money back from Tom Green and given it to David Spade, Dennis Miller, Kid Rock and Christopher Walken, who actually made a movie that was both funny and entertaining..
In the future, things like that should stay on the small screen and, at least, there these moments would be funny just because it's the Tom. I think that if Tom Green is to go on making films, he should consult other opinions first.
The most odious is when Gordo births a baby, bites through the umbilical cord and whirls it around the hospital woman.From all of the things that went on during the production and during the time when some studio exec green-lighted the movie, I wonder about one thing: did anybody think that this was funny?You know---I'm not being entirely truthful.
I went into this movie, expecting to see Tom green at his best.
This movie is all about Tom Green trying to gross out the Audience.
I am so happy to say that this film has actually won something that it deserves...A Razzie for THE WORST PICTURE OF THE YEAR, another Razzie for WORST ACTOR OF THE YEAR, another for WORST DIRECTOR OF THE YEAR, and another for WORST WRITTING OF THE YEAR!I am so troubled by the fact that a movie that shows a man REALLY masturbating a live horse, swing a newborn baby around a room by the umbellical cord, beat a handycapped woman's legs for sexual pleasure, sucking a raw cow udder like he was giving oral sex on a penis, etc...
And Tom Green was horrible like always.Nothing worked in this film.
When I went to go see this movie, I thought that I was going to watch a 100 minute Tom Green episode.
Let's face it....if you're going to see this movie, you probably think you know pretty much what to expect...but you'd be only partially right in your presumption.
Tom Green has said in interviews that in making his feature film debut with "Freddy Got Fingered," he wanted to shock audiences and make them uncomfortable, just as he did on his MTV show bearing his name.
Green uses the storyline here as little more than a vehicle to get from one tasteless set-piece to the next.....no style, no flair, no laughs.I'm a big fan of gross-out humor (I busted a gut at movies like "American Pie," "Road Trip," and the Farrelly Brothers films) and even gruesome black comedies (call me sick, but I think Peter Berg's "Very Bad Things" is an absolute classic) but "Freddy Got Fingered" just left me cold.
I loved movies like Election, Wag the Dog, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Tommy Boy, Clerks and Chasing Amy. However you will notice that these movies I have mentioned were funny, while Freddy Got Fingered is stupid.
In fact, an insult to the word comedy.Tom Green: think up something half way funny for your next movie, if any..
It is inconceivable that a major motion picture studio would actually release this film after viewing it once themselves.Obviously, the feeling was that Tom Green ( who makes Pauly Shore seem like Sir Laurence Olivier ) could carry this with his popularity ( something I have never understood from the start ).Hopefully, this will be the last time this ever happens..
And I like Tom Green, but this is the absolute worst thing anyone has ever put on screen.
If you think that child abuse, animal bowels and penises, child birth and paraplegics are really funny subjects, go ahead and watch this abomination of a 'film'.
Gross.Stupid.Annoying...and that describes the main character as well as the movie itself.I don't know who the idiot was that gave the green light on this pile of crap,but they should never work in movies again.An embarrassment for Rip Torn,Anthony Michael Hall and Julie Hagerty.I just hope they got a pretty good paycheck out of this..The movie is a series of unfunny/gross/childish slapstick and sight gags thought of by the star and director(if you call him either one of those)Tom Green..It deserved all of its Golden Turkey Award wins and thankfully,Mr.Green has never directed another movie again..I have never wanted to strangle a character like I did in the first few minutes and have never wanted a character to fail or get beaten up either.Maybe that was the point.I don't know..I'd rather watch "Manos,the Hands of Fate" or a Coleman Francis movie instead..Listen,Tom Green,just because you think you can direct and write a movie or even act in a movie,does not mean you should,OK?.
I personally think that Tom Green overdid the humor in Freddy got Fingered.
Time like this you have to ask why in gods name did something like this get made I fill so dumb to ever think about watching this movie and I'm the type of person who likes just about any movie but this is the worst movie ever made by a human well I take that back it was made by some really dumb monkeys and the king of the dumba!@es was the star tom green should never be able to make other movie ever.
Let me start out by saying that I like Tom Green, that's why I saw this movie.
After watching this movie, I truely believe that Tom Green should stick to his improv street antics.
This film not only left me with an incredible sense of dread for the 80 minutes of my life wasted on this repulsive experience, but filled me with a desire for revenge to certify that its producers would be publicly condemned, its actors never hired again, and Tom Green hoisted high above the Hollywood skyline to signify that decent humans would never again allow his menacing psyche and disgusting imagination to pilfer our society again.
Some parts of the film were excruciatingly painful to watch, like when Gord cuts the dead deer open and starts wearing and dancing in it, I felt as though I wanted to be sick.
Most of the time I do not like Tom Green, here he overdid the humour and mugs embarrassingly, and Gord's drawings by the way are awful.
I can only imagine the rest of the review, "funny" how selective the studios are.It should have read -If you're under 12, never read a book and think Drew Barrymore is the one who lost out, then you'll agree that this was the funniest movie of the summer.I agree that comedy is "subjective", but horrid is horrid..
I have NEVER stopped watching a movie before in my life, but I only made it 15 minutes into this film.
Though, I truly believe that not one holds a candle to the waste of film that is Freddy Got Fingered.Now, you're probably thinking: "This guy's a turd."  Well, I loved Airplane!, Naked Gun, Scary Movie, South Park, etc.
It's like Tom Green is holding some sort of sociological experiment to see what is too far, and will people laugh at it.I only wish critics could rate movies with NEGATIVE STARS.Please do'nt support Tom Green by seeing this movie, if you have to, purchase a ticket to Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and then walk into Freddie Got Fingered.
I'm perfectly capable of watching a very stupid movie and enjoying it, but the problem with this one is that I didn't find anything funny in it!I feel like Tom Green only wanted to shock people in this movie...
If you find incest,child molestation,bestiality,sado-masochism and cannibalism funny then Freddy Got Fingered may be the movie for you.The first twenty minutes convinced me that Tom Green has a blood fetish, not a good sign for a comedy.
Monty Python could get away with blood and guts comedy, Tom Green cannot.Don't waste your time with this movie, I give it 1 out of 10..
In fact, you could take that one scene from "Dumb & Dumber" where Jim Carrey makes the most annoying sound in the world, loop that for 2 hours, and you still have a better film than "Freddy got fingered"..
Tom Green is an idiot, don't EVER let him near a movie again, his career has got to be over with this one.
I think FREDDY GOT FINGERED is a stupid movie.
I think it will not even bother to get any Oscar or Golden Globe, instead it is my least favorite movie.Tom Green is a stupid comedian and my parents will not let me mention him.
And that the effect of making a commercial flop and garnering numerous Razzie awards was precisely the goal Green was trying to reach from the beginning.I wonder, if this were the case, that the production companies involved would have knowingly forked over fifteen million dollars to him.This movie is not funny on any level.
By the way, do you know anything about Mr. Green except the fact that kids love him?Movie Producer 2 - I think he's Canadian!Movie Producer 1 - Like Jim Carrey!Movie Producer 2 - You bet.Movie Producer 1 - Well goddarn, forget the script, start shooting right now!
Tell Tom he's got the afternoon to think of something funny, he likes that improv stuff.
If he gets stuck for ideas, give him this old Carrot Top movie script we were going to make when we thought he was funny.Hence we are left with Freddie Got Fingered.
When about 10 minutes of the film had passed, I was like: "Seriously, I don't wanna watch this, change movie!" I thought to myself; "Who write's this kind of sh*t??!?!!" And of course, after taking a look at the DVD cover I saw that it was, Tom Green himself, who directed, starred and wrote the thing.
The humor in Freddy Got Fingered is however, as non-existant as the plot.It doesn't surprise me that Tom Green's movie is as bad as it is, but shame on Harlan Williams, Drew Berrymore, Anthony Michael Hall, and other actor that's produced an enjoyable film for participating in it.To sum it up...
Proud winner in five categories at the 2001 Razzies including Worst Picture, Worst Director and Worst Screenplay; an undisputed fixture of Wikipedia's 'List of films considered the worst', and recipient of notices like "quite simply the worst movie ever released by a major studio in Hollywood history", Canadian Tom Green's puke-party is one of the most vilified movies of all time, owing to such non-sequential set pieces as Green masturbating a horse - then an elephant - to issue.
I watched Freddy Got Fingered knowing full-well of all the horrible reviews and backlash this movie suffered, and it is all deserved.
The fact that I summed up the whole plot in less than two sentences speaks for itself.The biggest fault that FGF has is the fact that it tries to shock more than it tries to be funny, many times it had me wondering why 20th Century Fox gave Tom Green a budget to begin with.
Not subtle, but not over-the-top, combine that with some talented comedians and a good premise, then you have a great film.I am being really harsh with this movie, so I will even everything out by listing some things I did like about it.
I just wanted to reach through the screen and smack Torn upside the head for saying "Yes" to this project.Horrible, barely funny in any respect, if that was Tom Green's purpose, then he succeeded, but that does not equal a likeable movie.
The best word I can use to describe this flick is "disturbing"  All in all it was one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time if not ever..
Now do not get me wrong I used to love Tom Green's show, but this was nothing like his show.
Now I have spent time is some bad movies (I saw battlefield earth three times) and I am also the cheapest person this side of the Mississippi, but I actually walked out on Freddy Got Fingered.
this is the absolute worst movie i have ever seen.the movie was basically a combination of fraudulent retardedness, animal porn, and scenes that only 6 year old boys and immature people find funny.I have seen some pretty bad movies in the past, but never have i felt so swindled as I did that night after enduring one and a half hours of confusion and disgust.When I chose to watch Freddy i didn't expect the movie to be an oscar contender, but at the very least something that would be funny.Honestly, for a comedy, i have never heard so less laughs and so many groans of disgust in a theater in my life.this movie really deserves a negative rating    -3/10.
The bottom line, Tom Green what the hell were you thinking making that movie?.
I can't believe how some people rated it as 8 or even 10!Don't watch this movie, don't waste your time..
Even I thought Tom Green had more class than he showed in this movie!.
the fact that i even know the name tom green is proof that with the right publicity anyone could make a movie.
Tom Green tries too hard to be retarded throughout the whole film, and although this is the point, it just makes Freddy Got Fingered infinitely more tedious viewing.
He knows there is a public for it and that MTV is willing to pay a lot of money for this nonsense, so he makes it.I guess this movie will only be loved by 12-year old kids who think they can shock their parents just by watching this kind of crap or by people who suffer from severe brain damage because they have been smoking too much dope or drinking too much alcohol.
The jokes and humor were both sick and un funny, This movie had the worst acting ever, and the characters were soooooooo Anoying!!!
This is a waste of time, effort, money, and air.Tom Green, your 15 minutes of fame are over, please exit stage leftand don't come back!I am personally hoping this movie never EVER makes a profit, so as to send a clear message to the producers that garbage is not welcome, especially when we, the viewing public, have to pay for it.
Tom Green makes a complete fool of himself and wastes our time....
I've been watching Tom Green since his show when he was actually funny.
Within the first 5 minutes Tom Green is laying on his bed laughing like a retard about a dumb drawing.
That Tom Green actually makes money of doing that..
Tom Green was admitedly funny in Road Trip but this was one of the most dissappointing films I've seen since Very Bad Things (another dreadful farce that those who like Freddy Got Fingered will probably enjoy).
I generally like The Tom Green Show, and I sorta hoped I was in for a "treat", when I rented this movie.
There is no real story in this movie, no plot, no characters with whom you can relate to, there is only Tom Green and his own demented ideas of what is funny, and that simply isn´t enough to keep you interested for more than 2-3 min.
I will NEVER see this movie again, I won't even see The Tom Green Show again, it was just SO terrible!
Upon reading twenty or so critical reviews of Freddy Got Fingered, of which 90% gave it a ZERO rating, i decided to see for myself how bad this movie was.After watching it, I realized that the critics were going easy.
Freddy Got Fingered is the worse movie I have ever seen.
I don't know whether I just watched the worst movie I've ever seen, or some piece of insane genius that I am far too dumb to comprehend.
And he was funny in his limited screen time in "Road Trip."The difference between his television antics and his film antics, is that on television is he making people on screen uncomfortable and we are able to sit back and laugh at them; while in the movie we are forced to sit through Green's bizarre and often grotesque antics completely unfiltered.
I liked the Tom Green Show, I enjoyed his deranged sense of humor.
I can't believe this movie was so awful unintentionally, it is my opinion that this was a deliberate attempt by Tom Green to create a film so unredeemable, it would almost be art.
The only character I liked was his dad, and I was hoping he'd just smack Tom Green so the movie would finish.
Tom Green has never been funny and never will be.I think this website should allow users to give movies a rating of 0 just for movies this abhorent.
It's not just "so bad it's funny," like an Ed Wood film.
