Nell Minow Common Sense Media Even a paddle can't keep this movie from sinking. Rated: 1/5 Dec 29, 2010 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 1/5 Apr 1, 2006 Full Review Ali Catterall BBC.com While striving for a bit of liberalism (ain't we City types the real stoopid ones) almost every scene then throws in the towel and falls back on a clutch of unfunny country-livin' clichs. Rated: 2/5 Dec 21, 2004 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures Shepard, Green and Lillard have good chemistry, and this bodes well considering there are three characters to play off each other rather than just two Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 23, 2009 Full Review John J. Puccio Movie Metropolis Maybe the filmmakers should have called the picture Without a Laugh. Rated: 4/10 May 12, 2009 Full Review Gregory Freitas Hollywood.com Rated: 2/5 Nov 20, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews

Robert V Hilarious and fun movie Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Grant T I love their take on what happened to D.B Cooper and just a very fun movie !! I would strongly recommend Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review Dyllan J Flawed? Yes. Dumb? Very much so. That being said, I saw this movie as a kid and it holds up as a quirky, quotable, bizarre situational comedy with good performances with a decent amount of heart in it. I recommend to people who just wanna shit their brains off with some friends over some drinks and just have some chuckles Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/09/23 Full Review Emmanuel V B teir movie since the cast and movie is good the Villains meh and Oh la la la is a good song but it's not a top 10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/23 Full Review Stephen C LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review River M Can't beat the old school movies, this was way better than the newer one. Love Seth Green, Matthew and Dax.
