Editorial Review:

Product Description:
AN OVER-THE-TOP COMEDY ABOUT OF GROUP OF MISFITS WHOSE WEEKLY SOFTBALL GAMES DESCEND MORE INTO FIGHTS FOR MACHO DOMINANCE THAN MAKING HOME RUNS. WHEN LOVE ENTERS HIS LIFE, IT ALTERS ARTIE'S LOW SELF-ESTEEM: & THE ODDS FOR WINNING - NOT ONLY THE LEAGUE TROPHY BUT A NEW LIFE.

Amazon.com:
It's appropriate that this extravaganza of lowbrow cinema had its premiere at the 2006 Cinevegas Film Festival, because what happens in Artie Lange's Beer League should stay in Artie Lange's Beer League. Lange is most recognizable for his stint in the Mad TV ensemble, but probably more idolized by the people who will get wild kicks from his leading man debut as the resident guest-baiter and booze/scatological/flatulence/sex joke expert on Howard Stern's radio show. Those are the same kinds of laughs this movie relies on in telling the wisp of a story about a bunch of New Jersey boneheads whose lives are fulfilled by softball games and the beer-guzzling that goes on before, during, and after. Artie's team is proud to be in the bottom ranks of their league, especially when brawls erupt at games against their slick, archrival team. Artie and the rest of his team know these arrogant jerks in their immaculate black (of course) uniforms are unbeatable, so it's only natural that Artie thinks its easier to just beat the hell out of them. The local cop who's had to deal with both teams finally gets so angry with the escalating brawls that he issues an ultimatum: Whichever team loses the season has to disband and never play on the league again. It's kind of an utterly tasteless version of The Bad News Bears for people who like their movies vulgar, offensive, misogynistic, and often really funny in spite of it all. Some of the subplots and supporting players include Ralph Macchio as one of Artie's childhood friends who's about to get married (cue depraved bachelor party scene with lots of topless babes), Mary Birdsong from Reno 911! as a kooky waitress, and a delightful turn by crusty character actor Seymour Cassel as Artie's teammate Dirt, who may be old but loves booze, fisticuffs, and debauchery as much as anyone. For some reason, Artie's foul-mouthed slobbery attracts a local Jersey girl (Cara Buono), even though he's jobless and still lives with his mom (Laurie Metcalf, who should get some kind of good sport award). The buffoonery doesn't just stop with the movie. There's also more than two hour of bonus material tailored for Artie Lange enthusiasts who probably number more than you'd think -- whether they'd ever admit it or not. --Ted Fry



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Laugh out loud?
This movie sucks so bad. I can't understand how it could have been so poorly acted. The movie is about getting drunk, and playing softball. All they had to do was get drunk, and play softball. Artie is an awful actor. That's coming from a fan of the show, and Artie in particular. May be worth watching just to confirm. As for all the stepford fans who gave a favorable rating; open your eyes, not everything they touch is a winner.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - artie!
Artie is the best! I loved the movie and cannot wait for him to make another movie!!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Sal was telling the truth
This movie was a horrible movie. I like artie on Howard stern, but this movie was the worse movie I have ever seen.

I think that is why artie threw a stapler at Sal, Sal was telling the truth about this movie, it sucked, and artie knows it.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Funny simple movie...
If you like Artie Lange and get his New Jersey humor you will love this. Very simple movie with no depth at all just funny lines, funny scenes but you need to understand the Jersey thing to get it. The styles, the attitudes, the dress code, the language, the atmosphere, the girls, their hair, a great NJ spoof.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - My husband loves Artie
And he is enjoying this book! If you are an Artie fan, you will too-
