Ronnie Dobbs (Cross) becomes a media celebrity when he becomes the star of his own show ("Ronnie Dobbs Gets Arrested"). On this premise, the writers (and director Troy Miller) hang a series of pop culture spoofs. Among the targets are Mandy Patinkin, the television series Cops, and Survivor. South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker make a cameo appearance. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Critic Reviews

Yet another feature comedy that began life as a TV show sketch and is still stuck in infancy (not to mention infantilism).
Greg Maki, Star-Democrat (Easton, MD)
I liked Run Ronnie Run!. But if you want the full Bob and David experience, do yourself and favor and watch Mr. Show on DVD.
Christopher Null, Filmcritic.com
unforgettable
Bob Grimm, Las Vegas Mercury
The creators of Mr. Show bring the hilarious saga of Ronnie Dobbs to the big screen. David Cross and Bob Odenkirk deliver two of the year's funniest performances...as of June, this is the year's best comedy.

It was sooo stupid, but some parts were funny. lol
Steve B

Admittedly, the version I saw was the work-print, but it didn't impress me enough to actually go out and get the final version.
Joseph E

Some scenes were just plain gay! Some scenes were just plain dumb. Some scenes..well they need not be explained or disscussed at any point in time..until such as I die or am forced too.

OMG. My friend thought this movie was brilliant and I wanted to die before I became as dumb as all of these characters.
Christopher B

I was sad to see this film sucked as hard as many said it had. A funny sketch drained of any humour at feature length. Too bad, I want more Mr Show!
