Midgets vs. Mascots

I was lucky enough to see this movie a couple of weeks ago and it was absolutely hilarious! I honestly could not stop laughing the entire time! The entire theme of the movie is down right hysterical. Gary Coleman's overall attitude and sarcasm throughout the film had me laughing so hard my stomach hurt! The concept is that a deceased littler person sets up a contest where a team of midgets and a team of mascot compete against each other for a prize of $ 10 million. My favorite movies are pineapple express and Jackass, and after seeing MVM I have to admit that it is definitely up there! I would not recommend taking your mother or grandmother to this movie because some of the jokes are a bit crude but if you enjoy that kind of humor, like I do, you will absolutely love this film!

I expected Jackass stuff only, but this was actually very funny, with a flimsy, yet nice story at the same time. Cool, gross, politically incorrect pranks and challenges and some good one-liners from everyone make this a fun ride. The acting, little tidbits, nudges to other cult icons and movies, are much better than you might think. Made on a smaller budget, it doesn't even matter.

Above expectation, and a well deserved 7 for the rough, yet warm feeling throughout. And lots of people, little or large, falling and capering. Mascottes alone getting swept off their feet was enough already to watch this :-) People might find it gross, but those who find it offending obviously missed the point. Every race, color or personal problem is attended to. A fun ride with a cold one nearby.

If you have a sense of humor and aren't easily offended, this shockumentary is something you'll enjoy. Hesitant at first, the witty banter, shock value and character interaction easily won me over.

In an attempt to showcase his two favorite groups of people, Big Red sends five mascots and five midgets on a 30-day challenge to compete for this inheritance money, leading to hospitalizations, arrests and great entertainment. Participants competed in outrageous and hilarious stunts ranging from field races and drinking competitions to gator wrestling and fight clubs, doing whatever it took to win the $1 million.

From the sharts, fights, nudity and absurdity, this movie will not disappoint.

There's been Good vs. Bad, Trump vs Rosie, Obama vs. McCain, Heroes vs. Villains, and now there's finally Midgets vs. Mascots a Jackass like film involving a group of dwarfs and a group of costumes nobodies challenging each other to a series of competition to compete to get 30 points. The winning team's team captain will get $5,000,000 for himself, and another $5,000,000 to split amongst the team. The loser gets the glory of being a loser.

Thats the extent of the film. Nothing is accomplished. The film is 90 minutes of jokes and hilarious events. The Best Tolerance of an actor in any movie goes to Gary Coleman entirely. In scenes of this film he is at his meanest and is up to his neck (not to high) in frustration. He was angry with the producers for showing him going full frontal nudity in the movie. Though it is said on the Midgets vs. Mascots website the contract Coleman signed stated that he agreed for the producers to use any footage of him in the film they wanted. So, Coleman's screwed.

It is unclear if he wanted to do the film in the first place seeing as he was mostly frustrated the whole movie. Though saying the funniest quotes and lines I have ever heard. It seems he wanted money mainly because he has not had much famous work since his early roles. I have read in numerous cases that he will die this year, which will be tragic, but lets face it, his health is diminishing.

I must say for a small company like First Look Studios, to release unknown flops like Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters, Meet Bill, and most recently Suicide Girls: Guide to Living. To release a movie entitled Midgets vs. Mascots and to not have Jason Acuna (Wee-Man) in it take some strong guts. Wee-Man is known for being the world's famous dwarf, we have Jason Mewes, Gary Coleman, SCOTTIE PIPPEN, but no Wee-Man. Excusing that small loophole, the film is still great, and lives on like a Jackass sequel.

Starring: Gary Coleman, Scottie Pippen, and Jason Mewes. Directed by: Ron Carlson.

My buddy talked me into going to see this movie when it premiered in Dallas last weekend. I had no idea what I was in for but it was a riot!! I can't believe I hadnt heard of this movie! It combines all the hilarity of Jackass and Borat. The movie is set-up as a fake documentary- following a team of 5 midgets and 5 mascots duke it out for a $1 million dollars a piece (as part of an inheritance competition set-up by this famous midget porn mogul who dies). The plot of the movie was a little weak but the one-liners and scenes such as Gary Coleman starting a fight with a guy three-times his size and an alligator mascot wrestling a real alligator only to have his arm bitten off make this movie definitely worth the money. Just know that this movie is definitely high in raunchiness and probably isn't the best thing to bring granny to. I will definitely be buying this movie and watching it over and over again!! Seriously, you gotta see this!
