JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
nojunk_3 I've seen the real TV show a few times, so i knew what it was about, before i watched it. I wasn't to interested in seeing it, because of that reason. The movie is great, because of the acting, Springer was the worst actor in the movie. For me it was hard to believe the actors weren't real. It felt like a reality program, i guess. I had to reminded myself that's it's only a movie, a few times. Jaime Pressly was really good at playing the character she had, kinda like the same character, on my name is Earl. The rest of the cast is good too. Molly Hagan plays Jamie's mother in the movie, she was a stand out also. I loved the movie, but not the TV show, weird.
lastliberal I absolutely cannot believe that i sat down and watched this garbage. I guess I wanted to se4e Jaime Pressly (Angel) from My Name is Earl, even though I don't watch the show. Along with Presley was William McNamara, with a long history of movies I have never seen, who played the stepfather who was boning her; TV star Molly Hagen, who played the mom who boned Angel's boyfriend after she caught her with her husband; Michael Jai White who boned both of them; and lots more TV personalities that made for more trash. I cannot imagine how Angel had energy for her step-daddy after she was earning all that extra money in the motel where she worked as a maid. Well, you get the picture. Florida trailer trash at it's best.
Seth Nelson We couch potatoes love the television. We may hate all of these reality shows on TV like "Survivor," "Big Brother," "The Amazing Race" and "The Bachelor," but the most realistic of television is none other than "The Jerry Springer Show." Yes, I love how it starts out with small talk, and suddenly: Chairs are thrown and broken into pieces! We see backyard wrestling-like fighting! We hear cuss words being bleeped out like crazy! No other TV show on the airwaves is like that! This stuff keeps us hooked, baby! Hooked! And if y'all think the TV version is very interesting, try watching this movie version! Seeing as how this is rated R and that this was shown in the movie theater, we can probably see (and hear) what we couldn't see on the TV version because of the endless FCC rules! So think of it as an extended, unrated episode of "The Jerry Springer Show!" And man, I wouldn't want to be in Mr. Springer's shoes right now!
jmsevain I can't agree with any of the comments. First time I saw the film on a UK TV channel, it was presented as an indie film and if you take the film under this angle I think it's an all different matter. I couldn't believe what I was seeing and got hooked instantly. The plot may be as bad as a JS's show (ie there is no plot) but the acting is wicked, it's hilarious and it's all in all an incredible trash movie. It says as much about America than a Bully or a Ken Park without the drama perspective but it gives a glimpse on the US society, and more precisely on what afternoon TV viewers in America (and I believe there are plenty of them !) are interested in. After all it's the neighbours we're talking about, don't we ?100% fun !
