Skid Marks

This movie truly seemed as if it were written by a pair of stoned fourteen year olds that just discovered softcore porn and boobs. To say that the humor was sophomoric is an understatement. There is no sign of intelligent life here; not that one would expect any. Yet slapstick humor serves a purpose and this title just falls short in every category. Nothing but crude and unfunny dirty jokes, sexually repressed writing and bad characters. The lead in this movie may just be the most unlikable character in recent comedy history. Somehow stalker tendencies turn into sweet nothings whispered into the ears of fourteen year old perverts in the middle of the most disturbing nocturnal emissions. Disgusting film with a ridiculous plot, pitiful and childish writing followed by terrible performances from actors portraying annoying characters. If you have any semblance of a brain, you'll do some good and stay the hell away from this garbage.

Skidmarks has been diagnosed as funny, gross and a little bit stupid at times! If you are looking for some guiltless pleasure, then Skidmarks is your answer. It provides non stop entertainment from a group of zany Emergency Medical Tech characters. The outrageous situations that the EMT's get themselves into and out of keeps the audience laughing out loud throughout many scenes. If you like physical humor and wonderful comedic chemistry, then you will really enjoy the interplay between Neil and Bob of the Downtown Intensive Care Unit. I have seen Superbad and the 2 cops in that movie don't hold a candle to the comedy that Neil and Bob bring to the screen.

Skid Marks is not for the faint of heart or weak of stomach or for those with dainty ears, eyes and mouths! It is what it is, a BALS out comedy with a lot of DIC references ! The movie is chocked full of hilarious skit after skit about 2 ambulance companies trying to sabotage each other. They stop at nothing to gain an advantage and nobody, nor any of their body parts are spared, particularly the groin area! It is a movie that you will either Love or hate, depending on how perverted your sense of humor is! I happened to Love It! Super Troopers and Van Wilder fans need apply, others should be wary! Guaranteed to laugh and be entertained either way ....

I am a paramedic and have been in EMS for over 25-years. The basic plot of this movie is two competing ambulance companies attempting to embarrass each other. It's been my experience that EMS'ers within the SAME agency do a better job of harassing, embarrassing, terrorizing, undermining and ridiculing each other than folks from the "other outfit." This movie is funny. Lots of gross, squeamish scenes. Lots of flesh, but distinctly NOT gross flesh. Lots of colorful language. In other words, just like a normal day at work (okay, maybe a REALLY fun day at work) The actors look like they had heaps of fun making this movie, and that was pretty contagious. It is the current generation's "Mother, Jugs and Speed." At an east coast EMS service we would pull many of the same stunts documented in the film on our best friends. Throughout the film, I would enjoy flashbacks: "Hey, Mambo did that!" "We called that a Garcia special," "take away the dwarf and it's the same as a Sludge Slam" and "Spanky invented that, but he'd wear a rubber bodysuit." Now that I am in San Diego, I loved seeing some of our beautiful city featured in the movie. Hopefully "Bay City" has a more secure pension system. I actually worked in the ambulance that the producers purchased to be the D.I.C. vehicle. Wait, what does that say for me? If you are in E.M.S. you will like this movie. If you are thinking about a career in E.M.S. you will be scarred by this movie. Have fun!

I like these kind of movies. Crude humor and pretty girls. Probably would not take my grandmother or pastor to see it but it kind of reminds me of my old college days. I recommend seeing it. Great acting with some of the EMT guys. Also, very pretty girls. The picture was very clear and the sound was great. I saw this at a theater in San Diego when I was out there on business. I hope it comes to Texas where I reside as I have many friends that would enjoy this. A lot of laugh out loud scenes. The length of the movie was just about right. It was a good value. Probably will appeal most to college males. This has the potential to generate a cult falling which could also lend itself to possible sequels like Police Academy.
