Finally, a funny comedy!

Too many movies that are in the genre of comedy seem to fail to produce any laughs (i.e. the new Stepford Wives). I laughed more during Dodgeball than I can remember laughing at any other movie recently.

Ben Stiller is awesome! He's character is over-the-top (a la Zoolander) and funny. The Vince Vaughn/Peter La Fleur character adds a nice straight man to the mix.

Tons of quoteable lines and a handful of cameos. 4 out of 4 thrusting bananas! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:
is it kid-friendly? we are in need of a good laugh here this weekend.

Agreed, PH. I just bought it I loved it so much in the theater.

SO many quotable lines. Pepper Brooks (Jason Bateman) made me cry...
"'F'-in A Cotton, EFF IN A"

Well, there's no nudity and most of the 'violence' is watching guys get hit in the family jewels with a dodgeball. The most controversial scene is the last two minutes of the movie.

The language is a little rough but ditto what PH says. no nudity or violence beyond your basic 3 stooges slapstick.

It's time to separate the weak from the chafed, the men from the boys, the awkwardly feminine from the possibly Canadian.

There are some damn funny lines in that movie.

Excuse me while I go check out what is on the OCHO! ;)

I gotta admit I was disappointed by this. It wasn't nearly as funny as I was hoping, and true to form of disappointing movies, nearly every really funny moment was covered in the preview. I don't think I laughed at all for the first 40 minutes. It's probably because everyone I know hyped it up so much and I was expecting more. I suppose it is worth the rental though, just don't expect the funniest thing ever.

I, too, loved it so much that we bought it. Watched it two nights in a row. Did you notice the Pirate at one point had an eyepatch under his eyepatch? The last two minutes are indeed 8O We have a pirate on our team????? If you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball! Nobobdy makes me bleed my own blood! Nobody!

I'm with Cheryl. Pepper Brooks (Jason Bateman) made me cry in this movie. Hilarious stuff! Got the DVD for XMas... I'm sure I will watch it a few times again real soon.
