From the creators of the Naked Gun films, and starring the creators of the South Park series, comes a spoof of sports and business and anything else that can draw a hearty laugh....
more...Two best friends (Trey Parker and Matt Stone) create "baseketball"--a sport that combines baseball and basketball--and when their silly idea catches on, they are thrust in the spotlight and become media darlings, much to their chagrin.

Full review
From the creators of the Naked Gun and starring the creators of South Park comes this hilarious comedy about two guys who just want to catch a break, so they invent this game called BASEketball, which is a mix of baseball and basketball.

While the film is very predictable, it still manages to get some laughs and overall is a very underrated film.

However, I am a fan of South Park and of the Naked Gun trilogy, so if you are not a fan of these you might want to stay away as it is similar, seeing as how Matt & Trey rewrote most of the script to their liking.

It is a good mix of the Naked Gun trilogy and South Park, and does not at any time seem one-sided to be more like the other.

The humour is crude at times, and you will have to "dumb down" in order to find this funny, but it's a small price to pay when you realise just how great and funny a film this is.

The only major flaw is that it goes on for a bit too long, but that's just my opinion - the ending is superb though, and it still remains a good film and one that I am glad I bought, although, as I've said, people will probably like it more if they are a fan of South Park and the Naked Gun trilogy.
