Really Surprised!

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I watched this movie with a group of my friends the other night and we all thought it was hilarious. A lot of my friends hadn't even heard much about it so I will admit I felt pretty cool bringing this to the party. The only way I can describe it would be to tell you it's a bizarre yet great combination of Bruno meets American Pie meets Jackass and then above all that to add Mascots and Gary Coleman to the mix. Midgets V. Mascots is a great movie for anyone with a sense of humor teens, moms, dads, young professionals, college kids etc. As well a great idea for a gift, especially because its new so you don't have to worry about everyone already owning it.... yet. I gave it to my brother for Christmas and he loved it! I will admit at first I wasn't sure if I even wanted to see it yet alone buy it ... I mean it's a movie centered around a competition between Midgets and Mascots, which sounded kind of off but I will say I was presently surprised with the whole thing! This movie truly is an original laugh out loud comedy and above all its a great purchase because its one of those films you catch yourself quoting and could watch over and over.

I was fortunate to get a sneak pick at this crazy film and it was hilarious! The entire idea behind the movie is awesomely ridiculous! Watching Midgets and Mascots battling it out while competing in these crazy events was a riot! If you like Jackass, Wildboyz, or watching people get hurt this movie is right up your alley! It's got everything from a milk chugging fiasco to alligator wrestling. Gary Coleman stars in this film and his no nonsense, "I don't take crap from anyone" personality is to perfect! Midget Vs. Mascots is out of control from the moment it starts right through to the very end! If you are looking for laughs and a new movie to quote check this one out!

The film's website describes it as a kind of Borat-meets-Jackass. Sounded interesting, so I attended one of the Tribeca showings. The description turned out to be right on -- lots of wild stunts, plenty of offensive material, and (believe it or not) a really good performance by Gary Coleman, though it's hard to tell if he was acting. The good news is that it was better than many of the raunchy (and not-so-raunchy) comedies that have come out over the last 4-5 years. And despite all of the nastiness, the film delivers a pretty decent message at the end as the little people pull together and the mascots give them some respect. Overall, it's worth seeing. Just don't take your grandmother.

Saw this movie at the Tribeca Film Festival and it lived up to all the buzz about it. Dubbed as a cross between Borat and Jackass, I'd definitely agree. MVM is hilariously gross, shocking, and offensive, but all in a good way. On top of it all throw in angry Gary Coleman and this movie is really really funny. The premise is that a deceased little person, former-mascot, porn-mogul sets up a contest in his will between a team of mascots and little people each led by his d-bag son and gold digger 3rd wife. The contest pits the little people and mascots in crazy contests like alligator wrestling, "how may insults does it take to get punched", and drinking games.While the absurdity of all of the contests is great, it's really the characters themselves that make the film. All of the characters have great one-liners at some point throughout and i can't wait to see it again to pick up on the ones i missed. I really hope it goes to a wide release so I can bring my friends.
