Gold Diggers (2003)

Pretty unfunny film that hardly made me laugh at all, with annoying performances, what happened National Lampoon?

[3/10 · 9 May 2006]

This is a pretty unfunny film that hardly made me laugh at all, with annoying performances, what happened National Lampoon?. All the characters are unfunny, and dull, and while the ending was kind of cute it was the only really decent thing about the film, plus while this film advertises Nikki Ziering heavily on the cover, she is barely to be found in the film, so that was disappointing. It also claimed it was raunchy, I was also disappointed in that department too, as it wasn't that raunchy at all, and it's pretty poorly made too, plus while I enjoyed Chris Owen as Sherman in the American Pie Films he wasn't very good at all here. Louise Lasser and Renée Taylor are fun as the Mundt's but it's not enough, and thankfully it's only over 80 minutes otherwise it would have been unbearable, plus while I usually enjoy stuff like this this just wasn't funny. I can see why this hasn't gotten all the harsh reviews, and National Lampoon really seems to bringing out crappy movies lately and this is one of them for sure!. This is a pretty unfunny film that hardly made me laugh at all, with annoying performances, and I say avoid it!. The Direction is pretty bad. Gary Preisler does a pretty bad job here with OK camera work, but keeping the film unfunny throughout!. The Acting is terrible and not very fun at all. Will Friedle is OK, but wasn't very funny, he had good chemistry with Chris Owen, but didn't really make me laugh, and was rather annoying at times. Chris Owens was funny as Sherman in the American Pie films, but here he is the exact opposite totally unfunny, it's not really his fault cause the film didn't give him much to work with, still I was very disappointed. Louise Lasser and Renée Taylor are good as The Mundt's, but that's about it, they still managed to keep the film somewhat bearable though. Nikki Ziering is gorgeous, and the film advertises her heavily but she hardly has any screen time at all, and was wasted, I was incredibly disappointed. Rest of the cast are equally as bad. Overalll avoid it!, what has happened National Lampoon?. * out of 5
