  I saw this film when I was a kid and I always thought it was a fun little flick. This is a film without its flaws, but it is pretty entertaining for what it is, and manages to be funny as well. I found this film pretty underrated and it doesn't deserve the flack it has received. I do agree it's flawed, but for the most part, it's a mindless comedy that is not meant to be taken seriously. If you love mindless humor, then this film is for you. The film's script is uneven, but most of the time there's plenty of good material here to make it work. The effects may look dated by now, but Joe's Apartment is still a fun little time waster that isn't meant to be taken seriously. The film has its moments and doesn't try to be a great flick, but it manages to be pretty fun due to the singing cockroaches, which is what saves the film from being a total dud. The performances are good for what they are, and are never anything great, but for what it is, the cast do a fine job here. Although mindless fun, the film definitely left a lot of room for improvement, and it could have been a far better one at that, if the ideas were much more thought out. This is an interesting idea for a flick that like I said, is entertaining and fun, but in the end could have been much better than what it turned out to be. None the less, I really liked the film, and if you like no brainer comedies, this film is for you.

  A cute film but forgettable.

  I really can't get past my dislike of cockroaches (ugh!) to see a lot in this movie. I guess it is clever, if you like watching singing, dancing cockroaches swirling around a toilet full of brown water or infesting someone's bedding or dinner. I have seen it twice now,… More
  I really can't get past my dislike of cockroaches (ugh!) to see a lot in this movie. I guess it is clever, if you like watching singing, dancing cockroaches swirling around a toilet full of brown water or infesting someone's bedding or dinner. I have seen it twice now, both times under protest. The second time, tonight, 14 years after the original viewing. At least this time I could appreciate the 90's nostalgia, but seriously, that is about it. Jerry O'Connell looks as greasy as the cockroaches, although Megan Ward adds a sweet edge to it. All the same.... cockroaches. Ugh!!!!!

  The parts with the roaches are entertaining - otherwise not very special.

• Anthony L

  
  The singing cockroaches were fun but it?s a bit of a boring film

• Dean M

  
  The five-minute MTV short is blown up to feature length and loses all its meager charm. The roach musical numbers are actually rather entertaining; it's all the stuff with the humans that stinks. Jerry O'Connell seems never to have washed his face during shooting.

  For MTV's first film, quite tame and not at all bad. As a film overall, reasonably bad, but it does have the sort of gritty, low-budget mid-nineties charm... which pretty much fits the subject matter perfectly. Simply put, it's bad, but it's hard to figure out how they… More

Simply put, it's bad, but it's hard to figure out how they could have done it better. A time to both praise and blame the subject matter, perhaps.

  the nastiest funniest movie that MTV could ever dream of from N.Y.C. !

• Duncan R

  
  The singing roaches were cool, I guess. Other than that, this movie sucked.

• William G

  
  I remain in awe.

• Yinalí R

  
  Loved the movie.

• Marcus W

  
  This is a movie that must be approached in the right frame of mind as it's from MTV, and has singing, dancing, swearing, drinking cockroaches. It's a lot of fun but at the end of the day you'll either love it or hate it.

• Ira Z

  
  A definite guilty pleasure. Though it had no substance at all, it's still an absurd yet funny and entertaining movie to watch for pure brain cells killing entertainment.

• Lee K
