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.

You know, I wonder sometimes how stupid a film promoter can be....

Every review but one here is by a person extolling the different virtues of the film in PR speak, and bad PR speak at that.

If you want to shill a movie, then at least have the decency to credit the members here with some degree of intelligence.

3 pages of PR, all obviously written by the same amateur promoter does NOT entice anyone to watch what is basically a single fart gag retold in 10 different ways.

I rest my case. If anyone considers watching this junk then they deserve everything they get Including me. :) Cheers, Will

I've seen first 60 minutes of this movie and it was the longest movie hour ever. The concept of this movie is weak, the bad guys are boring, very unfunny - the good guys totally lack any charisma, and their pranks and jokes are very week to make this movie valuable. The movie is just a sandwich without anything saucy in it. Scenes are busy, unoriginal, plot is hysterically stupid. This movie is anything but even remotely funny comedy. The natural chemistry in "the good guy-good girl" is misisng here, too it doesn't come out of the concept, the main character in my opinion failed in fitting into positive role, somebody viewer could be interested in or laugh at. I normally like easy and dull comedies - for example scary movie series - but this failed even for me. This was below any college movie where bunch of nerdy guys want to get laid. I am greatly disappointed in this title. My recommendation would be to avoid this one.

Every review on here that raves about this unfunny, derivative, desperate cluster *beep* of garbage is a lame attempt to boost DVD sales. At least every reviewer or comment posted that raved about this movie, in which I bothered to click on, has only one single post on IMDb. Yep, you guessed it, the only review or comment made is in reference to this pile of donkey cum. I do like all kinds of movies, including the genre that this UNFUNNY bowl of desperation soup falls into. You will probably hit the eject button after the 10 minute mark. If not, you must be seriously compromised by some kick ass drugs or paralytic on cheap alcohol! If I could give it a -6, I definitely would! Avoid!!!

There is nothing more painful than an unfunny comedy, and Skid Marks is a perfect example. Unlike a terrible horror or drama, where at least some enjoyment can be gotten out of unintentional humor, a god-awful comedy is just ....humorless. The acting here, aside from Dianna Agron, and maybe Tyler Poelle, is uniformly awful. If your main reason for watching it (as was mine) is to see San Diego locations, forget it, because in the 45 minutes I lasted before walking out, I saw none (and I never walk out of movies). I viewed a lot of bad movies during my time as a video store clerk, but this one may just be the worst (and at least those I hadn't paid for).

This was so awful and terrible and bad and all adjectives that mean "bad"!! I was expecting to laugh a little but it was just dumb and pointless.

The acting was beyond bad! The only decent actor was a young Diana Agron (before her Glee days), she was the tiny light in this awful mess! And I was hopeful that maybe this being close to a starting point in her career she may of bared something, unfortunately that never happened. Then the other side of many movies like this is the nudity, so sometimes the overall movie isn't too good, but the abundance of nudity off sets it to make it watchable, that wasn't what happened here! A movie like American Pie, classic and hilarious, so the nudity wasn't too much, but that didn't matter because it made up in strong comedy and decent acting. This movie also felt like they tried to oddly be inclusive with having a very large man, a small person, an Asian girl, someone in a wheelchair, a person of colour and a mentally challenged individual too, but then put most of them in insulting circumstances that wasn't funny instead mainly insulting. I noticed some people that rated this movie a 10 out of 10, not sure if they were just trying to bring up the overall rating or if they smoked crack then watched this movie?!! It's fine if you found the comedy enjoyable and made you laugh, but a 10/10 is basically saying it's one of the best movies you have ever seen, that kind of scares me to think some may feel that highly for this movie! Lol.

I took my son to see this. He loved it. It was a bit much for me, but I'm glad he enjoyed himself. It was neat giving my son the history lessons on what other films led up to this one. For me, it felt very much like the 1980's comedies of which when I was closer to my son's age just loved. Titles that came to mind were Police Academy, Moving Violations, Stripes (Ox/John Candy being the Karl character, Rich being the Bill Murray character, the female love interest the nudity and raunchiness in general), Porky's, Revenge of the Nerds etc.

If it was up to me I'd probably give the movie a six, but for my son's sake I gave it an 8. Perhaps I'm out of the loop or just getting too old for the raunch factor. Either way it was a fun outing. A caution to other parents however strong language, nudity, gross out humor, and general distaste for decency.

This movie will definitely not be for everyone, but I found its lowbrow humor to be hilarious. The characters were very well cast and, though unknown, really did a nice job. The movie can be overly loud which was somewhat annoying, but the fact that the jokes and sketches come at you fast and furious more than made up for that. If one joke fell flat, no worries because there was another one right behind it. The idea of competing EMT companies gives it just enough of a story line to tie all of the crazy antics together. I found it to be a cross between a raunchy Animal House and Super Troopers. The crowd at the theater that I was at was definitely getting into it. I was pleasantly surprised by Skidmarks and would highly recommend it.

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 ....

Wow!! I just caught the late night screening of Skid Marks, and I can tell you this film is like a slap in the face to all that is politically correct and sacred. The filmmakers take direct aim at just about every ethnic group, dysfunctional stereotype and race. No one is spared humiliation. The characters are an unknown bunch of new-comers, but I must admit they did a pretty nice job and several are really hilarious. The writing is okay - some of the lines are racy to say the least. I would imagine that EMT's and Paramedics should love this movie, assuming they're not easily offended.

But not to pull any punches here. Make no mistake, this movie is raunchy, lurid, gross, shocking and will likely offend you at least once, if not more. It's only redeeming quality -- it's REALLY FUNNY at times. I mean the audience laughed louder at times, than the audience I sat with for Superbad. So, if you like crazy, outrageous, over-the-top comedies -- this film is for you. Just remember to relax and just enjoy this one. Overall - I give it a "recommend" to comedy fans. Cinema snobs beware.

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.

though the first 15 minutes was somewhat slow the movie picked up and was a lot of laughs. If you want to see a movie that has just got a lot of slap stick humor and puts a smile on your face then go see this one.You can't help but laugh with Neal and Bob . two of the key actors in this film. the story is funny.. filmed in San Diego about two EMT groups that will do anything and I mean anything to under cut the other out of business. This move will keep you laughing. I was impressed with all of the actors and felt the casting job for the people who played in this film was perfect.I would highly recommend this comedy to anyone who need some humor in their lives. very funny .. well done

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.

The movie is a fast paced ride to hilarious laughter!! The laughs never come to a skidding stop. The ambulance crews are great at the outrageous and subtle humor the script is providing. Skid Marks is a must see movie for every person who wants to drown their everyday problems in laughter!! Neil and Bob are two soft core ambulance medics that bring you to laughter at every turn. Rich and his crew of goof offs are equally as funny during the city tours of Bayside. You will forever remember Neil and Bob's bathroom scene in their joint effort to "come" together. The patient transfers and tank exchanges are also scenes with laugh out loud humor.

This movie kicked butt. It reminded me a lot of the classic comedic films that I grew up watching as a kid. It is like a Police Academy, Animal House hybrid for the new millennium, but better. Politically incorrect at its best.

Just about every single character in the movie was funny and memorable. Especially the Neil and Bob characters. I felt like these guys should be on Saturday Night Live or something. They were definitely my favorite part of the movie.

Only, I wanted to see more at the end. But other than that, I Absolutely Loved It!

This is a really funny and well made comedy intended for a younger audience. There were lots of laughs throughout, and I almost fell out of my seat on a few occasions.My only real criticize is that the plot got mixed up a few times. The basic camera work was good but not excellent for the actions scenes. I also liked the sound track music.. I particularly liked the great looking girls in the beach scenes, but would have preferred a little more skin.A couple of the actors and actresses tended to overact at times. Some of the lines were a little gross at times, but did not really take away from the particular scene. There was too much slapstick in scenes inside the vehicles. Mikey stole the show.

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!

If you want to laugh, I suggest you go see this movie. The bathroom scenes are unforgettable and turn it into a classic comedy that you can watch again and again . You laugh just as hard every time. The dog scene was hurtful for my date to watch and hurtful to my abs after watching. It is the kind of movie you start laughing out loud, get a little embarrassed and then realize everyone else is just as loud so it doesn't matter. It was perfect for my date as he is the typical guy who likes boobs, pushing-the-edge comedy, and more boobs. For me as a girl, we get our share of sassy romance. I rate this film a 9 with all the physical comedy and newcomers.

Add "Skid Marks" to your list of guilty pleasures! I'm not necessarily a snob, but this is not the kind of movie I generally go out of my way to see. There comes a time, however, to let your hair down and allow yourself to spend an evening with no redeeming social value. No, there is no redeeming social value to be found in "Skid Marks". No, there is no possibility of intellectual stimulation (although sexual stimulation seems to run a bit rampant - ha!) No, you won't be debating the plot points over a serious cup of coffee and dessert after the movie. But you will laugh your ass off watching these guys run around like a "puppy on crack"! And, hey, "Laughter is the best medicine", right? So take your "medicine" and enjoy the ride!!

I came into "SKID MARKS" not really knowing what to expect, but I couldn't stop laughing. The writing and acting in this film is HILARIOUS! "Neil" is by far the funniest of the film....totally steals the show from everyone!

I will def. see this again, but I wouldn't recommend bringing your parents or children to it.

Another refreshing thing about this film is that all the actors are "unknown"...however after seeing this movie I know they won't be for long. It was nice to see actors other than your typical Hollywood teen-stars in it!

Usually you go to the movies to be entertained, but Skid Marks delivers more and a few moments where you are looking through your fingers....ya wanna see, but know you shouldn't!! Whoever says this movie is for the 17-20 year old audience has aged too quickly. The laughs are real and hit you in the face with no regard to being "politically correct". It seems the only guideline here is to see how far the action will go! Great cast and I loved the pace!

A few of my buddies and I are going to hit the town this weekend and I'm going to suggest we start the night with Skid Marks. Talk about getting in the mood for babes, booze, and a blast....won't need any Red Bull to stay awake here!

Skid Marks will go down as the Revenge of the Nerds or Animal House for this generation. With lines a plenty to quote and characters and situations too zany to attempt repeating here, all I can say is that you're in for laugh after guilty laugh. I'm sure some critics will get on here and attempt to rip on this film, but the people in the theater were laughing their asses off. I haven't heard, or laughed for that matter, like this since Bad Santa. For a small budget indie comedy, you'll get your money's worth with this film. David Leo Shultz plays the character of Neil, and there is no doubt this kid is talented and going to make it big as a comedic actor. If you liked Super Troopers, Superbad, or Bad Santa - you'll like Skid Marks. (If you are a Heroes fan, you might recognize the leading HOTTIE - Dianna Argon.

I watched the first screening, I thought the sound quality needed a bit of work but I got a good amount of laughs. I liked it better than some BIGGER named movies that have looked way more expensive from trailer to opening. Skid Marks is "spring break" type of movie attraction for young college audiences who need a toke of natural high! Neil and Bob were hilarious! The story line could've been a bit more polished but over all there were some good laughs. I wouldn't watch it with my mom and dad, but i think it makes a good movie to see with your friends if you want a good comedy. I'd get buy it if it came out on DVD. It would make a good blockbuster night with 'the guys'
