September 25, 2009It's a mad mad mad mad rip off! Some good cast members but at the end of the day it is plane crap! People who think it?s better than mad mad world are stupid! It has no class, and the end is so annoying. Another smash mouth ending, why do all new comedies end with 'Hey now you?re...( read more)

June 22, 2008The only good part about this movie was the new phrase I learned: "Prairie dogging it! "My husband will now announce this to me when he has to go #2 really badly .

November 21, 2009A major, major, major letdown. How can you have a cast that includes John Cleese, Rowan Atkinson, Cuba Gooding, Wayne McKnight (Newman from Seinfeld), Breckin Meyer, Seth Green, Whoopi Goldberg, Jon Lovitz and Kathy Najimi and STILL have a bomb? Maybe the worst use of comedic tal...( read more)

October 27, 2009Someone came up with the idea of putting washed up, possibly bankrupt actors in a film together to chase the cash that they once all had, or could have had...and yet we the people made the colossal mistake of giving it to them. We must take the blame.

August 25, 2006This was a pisser. A bunch of randomly picked misfits set after two million dollars. Using their greed as their motivation, they all run into different, equally entertaining problems.

May 28, 2006This movie was incrediblily funny. At first I thought I wasn't going to like it, but like 10 minutes into the movie the laughing started. It was great. One of the funniest movies i've seen. You will laugh until you cry, and you will love the ending!
