Dude, Where's My Car? [2001]
An entry into an already rather overcrowded market,Dude, Where's My Car?is a very dumb but ... more
exuberant comedy aimed fairly and squarely at the teen market. An attempt to recreate the classic feel of certain movies from the late 80s and early 90s, it centres around two hopeless individuals (Jesse and Chester) and their efforts to piece together the night before and, more importantly, find Jesse's car. The plot--such as it is, takes in many a convoluted turn with the introduction of transsexual strippers and aliens but still finds itself stretched thin over the course of the meagre 79 minutes. The film's aspirations are clear. With it's central duo and infuriating use of catchphrases it is almost a direct steal fromWayne's WorldandBill&Ted's Excellent Adventure, both of which are leagues ahead in terms of writing, performance and general style. The humour here is base and far too obvious, concentrating on the old standbys of sex and toilets, plus a small dig at blind children along the way. For a better example of such humour head for the genuinely funnyAmerican Pieor, for a teen comedy with actual intelligence and panache, the peerless10 Things I Hate About You.On The DVD:The extensive range of extra features are in keeping with the overall style of the project. The audio commentary from director Danny Leiner and his two main stars is simply a succession of in-jokes and childish hysterics, while the behind the scenes documentary is equally banal. There is a selection of extended scenes, trailers and TV spots plus a music video from Grand Theft Auto, the best thing about the whole package. --Phil Udell

Dude, Where's My Powers? Review ofDude, Where's My Car? / Austin Powers - International Man Of Mystery DVDby

Advantages: Two great films with great actors Disadvantages: Dude not as universally appealing as AP
...quite an underated film in Dude, Where's My Car? was released just three years later in 2000. The two films mark a certain era in teen movies and seeing them packed together in one boxset comes as no surprise. I'll kick off with Dude as it is probably the one people are least familiar with. It features a young Ashton Kutcher (Punk'd) and Seann William Scott (American Pie) trying to peace together what happened the night before after doing what most ... ...out there, into the realms of fantasy, hence the slogan 'After a night they can't remember comes a day they'll never forget.' When they awake at the beginning of the film they find a years supply of pudding in their fridge, thinking it's a pretty weird thing to see the room mates carry on their day by going to see their twin girlfriends. Only problem is that when they try to go see them they realise the car is missing. This sets even more strange ...
