User Reviews

what a waste

This is absolute crap. The stunts are stupid, painful and pointless (like getting a tattoo during offroad racing), innocent people are constantly harassed (a rented car is smashed to pieces and abandoned, a minigolf-park is destroyed by racing electric cars through it) & genitals, s**t and vomit seem to be their favourite topic (eating your own p**s, electro-shocking your d**k, putting a toycar up your rectum) In my opinion they should be protected against themselves, because clearly they have all brain damage, and i wouldn't waste my money and time on a movie which has been put together by a couple of retarded adolescent-wannabe's, in a vain attempt to bring humour to the world..

If nowadays those "stunts" are the things that are considered funny, i'll gladly jump of a bridge while shooting myself through the head.
