Screwed

Oh did I mention Dave Chappelle?

This film is a goofy, hilarious, joke-filled comedy that will have you chuckling every few minutes. It's campy, corny, but laugh-a-minute.

That cast!

We need more silly, corny movies like this with characters running around unhinged & regretting the choices they made! They just don't make them like this anymore.

Willard Fillmore (Norm Macdonald) is a life long butler to the pie mogul Miss Crock (Elaine Stritch). She works him like a dog, treats him like crap, and pays him peanuts. After one insult too many, Willard, with his friend Rusty (Dave Chappelle), decides to kidnap Miss Crock's dog Muffin and hold it for a million dollar ransom. The kidnapping went horribly wrong and the dog got away. Due to the botched kidnapping, Miss Crock thought that Willard had been kidnapped. Willard and Rusty decided to run with that scenario and increased the ransom to $5M. Things didn't go according to plan.

Dave Chappelle and Norm Macdonald together can only mean maximum silliness. The plot was actually not bad, the execution however, needed some work. There were some very funny moments while most of the movie was just mildly humorous. It's an easy carefree movie to sit back and watch at any time; no proper mood necessary.

Just like Norm McDonald's last comedy, don't expect anything complex or high-brow. But expect tons of laughs! I was laughing from beginning to end! And Norm is assisted by Dave Chapelle, another one who's talented at his craft. There's no artistic merit to thoroughly discuss. All I have to say is it was funny, and I don't want to give away why it was funny. Just go see it! You won't get "screwed" like some smart-alecky people claim.

I just finished watching this movie and felt I should write a comment about it, which I've never done before. For much of this movie I was literally rolling on the floor laughing. Once or twice I noticed something that didn't makes sense, like in one scene the main characters steal a police car and start it without having keys. But a few seconds later they would do something so funny I just forgot all about it. I would recommend this farce to any of my friends, in fact I'm going to go do that right now.
