There are few movies out there which are so good they speak for themselves. This is one of them. In fact, this movie is clearly too great for a review. You can see the film for yourself to know what I am talking about. Words cannot do this movie enough justice. If it's not THE single definitively greatest movie ever made (FORGET ABOUT CITIZEN KANE. It's crap compared to this!),then it is surely among the 1,111,234 greatest of them all. Just go watch it on Youtube right now. You will not be sorry. I promise. And if I'm wrong that you don't love it, then you can send me a private message asking me for an apology. Yes: I AM willing to make that bet. So stop reading this, because the more time you waste reading this review (and you've already wasted a minute reading it - a minute you could have spent watching the first minute of the greatest movie of all time),then the more time you waste. Go watch this movie, you jerk.

This movie makes me angry
I keep reading "OK, you have to be a Tim and Eric Fan to like the movie" and i can honestly say I thought I was one of those people. I could never quite explain why I like their TV Show and many people told me I was an idiot to watch stuff like that. But who cares... the whole anarchist film making was different, creative... and strangely funny!
Now with this movie its a totally different thing. This has to be one of the dumbest and most useless waste of resources ever. There was not one single scene that gave me a hint of a smile. Sure the usual ingredients were there but just in strange homeopathic doses that just didn't work. Some cheap TV commercial spoofs, crazy editing, sound distortions and gross ideas... you know it from "Awesome show". But this movie didn't just suffer of the fact that not even 10 Minutes of it reached the level of the TV show. I could understand someone falling flat with a feature film considering the length of it but this is like they want to make fun of the viewer by just being as dumb as humanly possible.
There is not one single scene I can get back in my mind which would come close to the weird ads, intermissions, zany animations and Characters from the show. Some of the characters did appear but totally out of context. For example John C. Reilly appears not as Steve Brule but as a character named Taquito who was supposed to be funny because he is sick and coughing or salivating on everything. That sort of pre-school humor seems to be squeezed in for shock value to make people speak of anything after seeing the movie. There is especially 2 scenes of a graphic genital piercing and a diarrhetic bubble bath which are so obviously squeezed in for that purpose that it made me angry.
I am especially angry that these boneheads waste a budget that many aspiring filmmakers would kill for and present a turd on a silver platter. This movie is literally the same thing they joke about with the billion dollar movie they make in the movie. But just like everything about this.... it is not funny. The only movie I can think of that left me with an equal taste of absolute meaninglessness in my mouth is Uwe Bolls "German fried movie".
So congratulations Tim+Eric... you made one of the worst movies in history. Maybe that was the intention, but even that would be the most despicable waste of resources and talent.
Biggest disappointment of the year!
Funniest Movie I've Ever Seen
This movie killed me. I'm a huge Tim and Eric fan, and I can say without a doubt, if you like their humor, you will love this film. They have truly taken their humor to the next level. Like the best comedy, it is truly polarizing. You either love it and think its brilliant or you hate it and think its stupid. The trailblazers in any field are those who take risks and don't worry about pleasing everyone. The rest of TV is like that, which made me love Tim and Eric so much ever since "Tom Goes To The Mayor" because they are so apart from the pack and against the grain. Besides that, this film is just plain hilarious. Dark, sure, not the same as the show, sure. But the key is that its incredibly funny. If you don't like Tim and Eric, you won't like the film. Its that simple. Try watching some of their stuff online, and if you dig it, you will dig the film. They've stayed true to their vision, and have created an amazing film.
