Steven F. @SteveGotScored 2h Johnny Knoxville is an absolute legend in this! See more Laikin K. @baberaham Sep 29 Greatest film of all time 🐐 See more thiago s @Thiagostone Sep 25 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Sophia D Sep 4 Only a movie that could have been made in the early 2000s. From the premise to the writing. There are definitely some moments that are funny and it is good that there was growth from the main character. I just wished there was more going on behind the scenes. It was very basic and you could tell there were no neurodivergent people in the writing room. I think this movie could have been knocked out of the park if that was the case. unfortunately because there wasn't it toes the line between funny and offensive a good amount of time. Also a lot of the moments fall flat. The acting was great and there was one specific line that makes this movie. I will let you find it. I guess a good watch once but never again.

Johnny Knoxville's character might be rigging the Special Olympics with his fraudulent "acting", but there's surprisingly decent representation with many of the special Olympians being played by actors with disabilities that are characterized with a more grounded approach with contrasting personalities and street smarts as they immediately see through jimmy's character charade (thankfully early on instead of most comedies that try to make the "Liar reveal" trope as melodramatic as possible near the end....even if they have a smaller Liar reveal scene with another character). Johnny Knoxville is entertaining as the main lead, and Brian Cox is great as his sketchy uncle. His fake disability bits might be divisive to some viewers, but I'd argue the movie frames it well with everyone else's reactions to his true intentions since thankfully most of the comedy revolves around the contrast between his stereotypes and actual special Olympians. The plot is very formulaic with its sports & romcom cliches, but the main cast and their character work is funny and charming enough to make this a fun ride. See more Read all reviews
