Review of Freddy Got Fingered (2001) by Matthew M — 29 Apr 2011

Yeah, I've got a finger for this movie alright. Believe it or not, it had a promising premise, but suffers from a lack of development, a tossed-together "storyline", unlikeable characters, poor performances and a cop-out ending.

As for the "humor", it is poorly written, vulgar, numbingly annoying, disgustingly raunchy and generally jaw-droppingly immature, testing not only the ratings board, but the tolerance of any sensible human being.

Well, as a sensible human being, let me be the first to congradulate the film on beating the ratings board and curse it for shattering my tolerance. Or maybe I should congradulate it for that as well, seeing as it did it in a record-breaking under 8 minutes.

Now, I know I've been using the word "unbearable" a lot this week, but it is the absolute best way to describe "Freddy Got Fingered", other than one of the worst movies I've ever suffered through and a total waste of precious time.

Unless, of course, you're eager to see just how awful it gets, because if there's anything I can say about this movie, it's that when it comes that, it shatters all expectations.
