Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The team behind Dumb and Dumber and There's Something About Mary--two really stupid, gross-out films that worked and were quite funny--also made this really stupid, gross-out comedy that doesn't work and isn't funny at all. Woody Harrelson stars as a former bowling phenomenon with a hook for a hand, and Randy Quaid is an Amish farmer with a hidden talent for pins. The two join forces and get a sexy business partner (Vanessa Angel), and the film starts looking more and more like a jokey variation of The Color of Money. The Color of Money, however, didn't feature jokes about having oral sex with a hideous landlady or defecating in a sink or dragging disgusting stuff out of one's teeth with a length of floss. Bill Murray provides some much-needed relief as Harrelson's ex-partner turned rival. How come this stuff is obnoxious while the equally perverse punch lines of There's Something About Mary are a riot? It's a great mystery, all right, but there it is. --Tom Keogh

Description:
The guys who brought you There's Something About Mary and Dumb and Dumber strike again with a gut-busting farce that's "just too funny" (Los Angeles Times)! Woody Harrelson, Randy Quaid and Vanessa Angel come up winners in this riotous, joke-a-second comedy with plenty of balls. Harrelson is Roy Munson, a pro bowler who seems destined for greatness, or as close to greatness as a bowler can get. But after a run-in with angry competitors, Roy finds himself sadder, wiser and minus his bowling hand! Years later, he meets the naive Ishmael (Quaid), an Amish bowling whiz. Together they set out for a million-dollar tournament in Reno, and along the way pick up Claudia (Angel), a sexy vixen with brains, attitude and really big...ideas. With her help, they make it to the tournament. But will Roy and Ishmael win the big match and score fame and fortune...or will all their hopes and dreams go barreling down the gutter?

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Kingpin
Great DVD shot right here in Reno. Saw some friends used as extras. All in all highly entertaining, with very few slow moments. Great new sport "boob boxing" may have been created!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Purchase
This item was a great purchase. Although I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, the item was in great condition. It was still wrapped in the original packaging and the disc had no scratches or marks. It was also delivered in a timely manner.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - For Pete's sake why do good movies go out of print? Who's Pete?
I am writing this review because I am shocked. I am shocked because I see a caption from some moronic half-critic saying that this movie is bad. They also drew up a comparison with "the Color of Money(hello: lame!)" and the other 2 movies that Farrelly brothers made before and after this one and made it seem that this one is the lesser.

I am guessing that this person liked Top Gun and didn't like This is Spinal Tap.
This is another item I am willing to review because it never get's ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - not so good
I ordered from this person because other reviewers had given this seller a good rating. I haven't really bought anything on ebay before so I had no point of reference except for those reviews. I received the package much later than the person said they would send it. It wasn't a huge deal since it was a Christmas gift that I ordered in early November - I still got it in plenty of time for the holiday thanks to my planning, not the seller's. The description said the dvd was "like new". I suppose that's ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Definitely not as funny as I figured it would be...
I've never been a huge fan of the Ferrelly brothers (they surely aren't the Coen's) but this film starred Bill Murray (or so I thought) and I just love him so I had to watch it at least once. Truth be told, Murray is hilarious here in every frame he's in, but sadly he's just not in enough. Woody Harrelson, and to a lesser degree Randy Quaid, are funny in their own rights here, but neither of them can truly carry this film and it isn't really until Murray comes onto the screen that my attention was gotten ...
