Seriously, all my friends said how bad this was and i could not believe it, I HAD to see it with my own eyes. I said that there was no way that they can be a movie with Ben Stiller, Jack Black, And Christopher Walken, and for it to be bad. And boy was i right. I am pissed that everyone is hating on this movie. Jack Black perfects the role of the kinda wacky guy with not so much money and all of sudden gets a ton and doesn't know what to do with it. I mean its great, he is HILARIOUS. Ben Stiller is soooo funny as always. I swear that man cannot go wrong. And One of my favorite actors Christopher Walken is probably the best part of the entire movie. He was phoneminal. His unbeilevably crazy character had me laughing hysterically. Wow This movie is on my top 5 list OF ALL TIME.

This movie FREAKIN ROCKS! The problem is the great bulk of popcoron munching redknecks don't know genius when they see it. It's a classic. It is off-beat and unexpected, but it works and it is hilarious. It is like a much better Neighbours (Belushi and Ackoroyd). Everyone hated that too because it failed to fit the stereo-type. How can you not like this film and think it is unfunny and without jokes? Jack Black is brilliant. I think the style of humour is possibly too European for the American audience. That whole thing about flan and flaaan. And I love the way Jack Black just forgives Stiller for killing Corky. I would hate to think mainstream studios and actors stop taking risks in making films like this. Go watch 50 First Dates or some other piece of mindless sh&t! Envy FREAKKING ROCKS!

Yep, it's one of the classics. It's up there with movies like Analyze This.
