Very Cool!!!
Thanks for the memories!
Memorable, crazy movie
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. I live down south and find myself quoting this movie all the time. Watch this movie if you want to laugh so hard you might pee. Do not watch this movie if you are trying to break a world record for not laughing and only have 90 minutes to go.A great cast complements a script and this one was perfect. I've talked friends and family into watching this movie and everyone that's watched has told me it really is one of the funniest movies they have seen.There is some partial nudity and adult situations it may not be for everyone but I've shared this with folks I go to church with and They thought it was funny and in good taste.
Well I think that this movie is absolutely hilarious. It had my entire family and all of my friends that I have had watch this movie rolling on the ground and laughing through the whole thing. I give props to the writer and director for making a movie that can keep people nonstop laughing. And I'm sorry to the people that cannot laugh at this movie it must be hard to live life with your head stuck up your butt. Maybe it's my ability to relate to the people in the movie. I have family down south and northern United States that act like this. But my English professor even laughed when she watched it. So there is nothing wrong with getting in touch with your hillbilly side and cracking up at this movie.
I watched this one time on cable - and got hooked! There is something about Earl's dry and droll narration, about Baby's innocent dreams about moving to L.A. in time to be discovered as a Soap Star by sweeps week - it has a gentleness to its humor that does not seem forced and stereotypically "redneck." The whole crazy idea of Earl and Baby being brother and sister, of Tinker and Junior's robbing the liquor store, Sheriff Andy - in any other setting these would be played more for their "Hee Haw" moments than they are here - it is presented as being such a natural state of affairs that the story draws you in and you actually believe the whole stupid mess could happen the way it unfolds. Only at the end when the story reaches the final shootout do things really take such a fantasy turn as to leave you going "yeah, right."
I watched this in the early hours of the morning and it was hilarious. I wanted to see this movie because I really like Joshua Jackson and I had seen a trailer online that was amusing. From the very beginning, I was laughing uncontrollably. Everyone is the cast is funny, especially Ryan Hurst and DJ Squalls as Tinker and Junior. It's a small film that many people probably haven't heard about but I really enjoyed it. Definitely can be watched again and still be really funny.
