one of my absolute favorites!
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View More.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
View MoreI like Jack Black and I like Cera as well. Harold Ramis is a funny man, and very talented. However, this turkey could have been made (and looked like it was made) for 6M instead of 60M. I liked some of the skits in the film (the killing of Abel and one or two of the Sodom scenes). However, three scenes and five good minutes cannot rescue a rambling mess. To be viewed only if it is free. (and then much beer and junk food will be required as well).Dr. Arthur H Tafero (AskMrMovies)
View MoreThis movie offers a cozy relaxation time with a few laughs and a good cast and also a good director.So we have two buddy's who are different but work well of each other and leave their village 2 discover new things and it just has a nice sense of adventure and good feel and the movie just offers this good and cozy look. Its definitely not a great film but its something that you might want 2 see again when your in the right mood.These guys meet a lot of weird people and get into lot of weird circumstances and its just genuinely funny sometimes.Definitely worth a check and not bad in a sense that its not enjoyable cause it most certainly could be worth your time.
View MoreI saw this on cable recently and enjoyed it a lot more than I expected to, especially after reading Roger Ebert's review. He must have been in a bad mood the day he wrote it. It's not a masterpiece, but I have enjoyed Harold Ramis' work going all the way back to Second City TV and the National Lampoon Radio Hour. I laughed out loud at Oliver Platt's High Priest and especially Hank Azaria doing a hilarious George C Scott impression/parody as Abraham (see 1966's "The Bible"). David Cross is funny and a bit disturbing as Cain too. His best line: "You know the best thing about Sodom? The sodomy. You're in for a treat!" Jack Black and Michael Cera are playing the characters for which they are best known ... no surprises there. Black annoys me sometimes but Cera can be funny without even seeming to try. I give it seven stars.
View Morethe only kind of people hating on this movie are Christians they try to hide the fact how god was and how he is and which people still follow him they hate the fact that this just shows that the only people ever defended by god were not eating pork waring headscarfes etc the god of Abraham is not the god of Christianity that teaches Adolf Hitler is in heaven as long he pays church taxes and that all evil is forgiven xtians have problems with people not being lawless beasts they have problems with laws except those made by humans and what is the point crying about people laughing about it when all you do for your "god" is living the exact atheist lifestyle except you say you believe on time in 10 years hypocrites
