A GOOD MOVIE - NO - A GREAT MOVIE
casablancavic5 November 2018
I found this movie absolutely great.

It was fantastic. I was very tired and unable to sleep at 4 in the morning, so I put on Nobody Knows Anything.

Not even halfway through, did I feel the excitement...there it was...

Me - wanting to go to sleep.

This movie is perfect for wanting to go to bed.

If you've never tried this as a sleep remedy - you should really try watching this movie without closing your eyes.

The perfect movie to go to sleep by....

A special thanks to the writer, director, actors, and producers who made this all possible.

This is why I rated this film so highly...I gave it a two - because it helped me go to sleep.

Student movie that's all...
e-shabalin14 June 2006
I actually found this DVD in supermarket basket full of discount products. 3,50 is not much, especially when it's says: The most funniest comedy since "There's something about Mary" starring: Ben Stiller, Janeane Garofalo, Mike Meyers, Alanna Ubach and many others... Alanna Ubach is the hot number from "Meet the Fockers" and Janeane Garofalo (which i personally like as well) known for her work with Ben Stiller on "Reality Bites", "Mystery Men" and lot's of other projects. So i rushed to the counter to make this disc (full of visual moments of adventure) all mine.

I honestly did expected much more from the storyline, i couldn't watch it in one time, it's getting so boring so i took couple of days of interval before i finished the movie. Sorry, but in such cases i rather read something in between. But at the same time if they had more money on this project. They probably did much better job than the final result. Sound and visual shout for improvement. Crap movies like "The whole 9 yards" for example, had much, much more financial backup so they get more attention and credit.

I would say, nice try, they did it because they have guts, less afraid to fail. Bruce Willis started with "The Moonlightning" as well. Look at him, he managed to survive that and he's big boy now. But retail price 3,50 is exact wright amount to ask for, no one deserve to get reach on this movie. This is kind of a student-introduction movie and not like: Hey, give me your wallet!

Nice try but ....

An American trying to make an alternative comedy with more sophisticated humor. ... and that's where it went wrong. A fine idea to do something different with comedy ended up in a nightmare. Can't blame him for trying something fresh though.

Looks like the director hit the ball totally wrong here so I think he'd better stick to brainless Hollywood comedy. It's even better to have some lame old jokes than.

Watched the movie with six people who love love all kinds of comedy from Hollywood to British comedy, from satire to black comedy. This film

But after 50 min we just stopped watching in order not to lose our good mood.

.... too bad

So Horrible I want my 10 minutes back
slntnsnty11 October 2006
I actually suffered through 10 minutes of this thinking that it might get better.... Please do yourself a favor, and don't bother watching this.

Unless you enjoy intolerably bad movies, your time is better spent anywhere else.

And I do mean ANYWHERE.

It is hard to believe that any of these actors who participated in this movie did not get banned from the business permanently. It certainly is a black mark on their careers in my opinion.

So, what was wrong with this movie? Poor Acting. Bad Jokes. Bad Plot.

What is good about this movie? You don't have to watch it.

Brilliant

I thought this movie was loads of fun, though seeing the reviews I guess it's not for people who don't enjoy low-key send-ups of the entertainment business. This movie is like seeing all those situations and people that are usually stuck in here and there in a big action flick (or The Simpsons) to get in a slam to Hollywood culture, all strung together, but instead of being tongue-in-cheek, relentlessly sincere. Maybe the bad reviews reflect that it hasn't attracted its audience because of the way they marketed it -- they should be trying to get a Woody Allen crowd, perhaps? The cast is made up of extremely talented comedy stars and well-known character actors, each one bigger than the last, who play their characters so low-key and real. So much so, that the little ironies don't seem set up, they seem accidental like they should be but never are in comedy films. And a big surprise to me was how entertaining Margaret Cho was, as I'm not a huge fan of her stand-up.
