My favorite scene in the movie



0:17 is the funniest shyt.

One of the low key funny parts is when they asked Brandon T. Jackson who his inspiration was for the role and he said P.diddy.

I think this was the first movie I bought on bluray, one of my favorite comedies, I feel like watching it now.

"G5 Playa"

Who would've been good for that part?

I think Statham would've been a good pick for the part. Maybe it's with a bit of hindsight because he nailed his role in Spy as over-the-top tough guy, but that's the kind of portrayal the part needed.

I respectfully disagree. Cause you have to remember in the movie Ben Stiller was an action star, but also played a "retard". The closest actor who did that in real life is Tom Cruise. Statham was funny in Spy, but he was still a tough guy.

First thing that comes to mind when I think about this movie

And it would've been hilarious seeing a total tough guy like Statham play Simple Jack. That's why a lot of that part didn't work for me, because Stiller played it like a comedy role and it really needed the absurdity of having an actual tough guy trying to play a mentally handicapped person.

When RDJ went on his u more shredded than a julian salad rant. "Whats the secret dude cause im tryna come up.any tips?? Any tips? Tips?! Gimme that goddamn map! Fukk u"

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Can't call it a classic. Too much meh, but a dope idea that I thought faltered quite a bit. Jack Black wasn't funny, black dude made to be a fagget was forced and just stupid . Stiller wasn't as funny as he usually is, simple jack shyt was funny at times. RDJ killed It and makes the movie special. I still think they dropped the ball with this flick even though it seems to get a lot of love after its theater run.
