Review of The Onion Movie (2008) by Russ S — 11 Aug 2008
Pretty awful. If you're a loyal Onion reader, you'll already have seen most of the good jokes; expanding old headlines into sketches just doesn't work, and the new material is either boring or just mishandled.
(The "How to Host a Rape" sketch tries to be shameless, but keeps on trying to apologize for itself...so it's just awkward and offensive.) The only decent laugh is at the end of the movie, and I think I only laughed at it because it was the first joke with any stones after 90 flippin' minutes of sub-Kids in the Hall dumbness.
