Advantages: Entertaining brainless humour, Eugene Levy. Disadvantages: Only Eugene Levy from original cast, comedy dies out in it towards the end.
...The best way to sum this film up would be to say better than American Pie Band Camp, not as good as the original trilogy. But thats only to people who have seen all the other films, which i guess most people who see this would have done, but for those that havent....
The film follows one of Stiflers cousins just like American Pie Band Camp and this particular Stifler is nothing like his counterparts. However when his girlfriend gives him a guilt free pass to go to the "Naked Mile" - an annual nude college event, he begins to stray towards his cousins anticts.
Dont get me wrong, this film is funny, it has an entertaining story, a better plot than American Pie Band Camp and is perfectly watchable as a stand alone film as well as part of the American Pie franchise.
However i am beginning to think that the franchise is just being drained...

Advantages: Gives a different view of little britain, while on stage. Instead of on camera Disadvantages: The differnt view can get hard to get used to for certain people.
...said) Some scetches are more funny then others (although my favourite is the fat fighters lady)
I can think of a few scetches and describe their meaning for you. The first one I can think of is Margery Doors, She is a fat fighters lady who is the spokesperson, she's always putting her fat fighter team down and shouting at them, she takes the mickey out of the asian lady. (this could also be a reason why you would find it offputting)
Another would be prime minister, when Sebastian, the prime minister's aid is in love with the prime minister and acts really camp. Although Sebastian gets naked in the DVD, another reason why this might not be classed as funny to some people.
The last one that comes to my mind would be the one where Mr dudwee is with a thai woman and the thai woman is always telling lies to him, he finds out in the DVD...

DVD Description
A cynical and pessimistic Manchester drifter, Johnny (David Thewlis), arrives in London, afflicting his ex-girlfriend and her flatmate with an unsolicited visit. When he isn't having rough sex with the roommate or pestering the night watchman at a sterile, modern office complex, he berates his ex for her bourgeois urban tendencies. Leigh's portrait of a deteriorating world at the end of the twentieth century is an intense drama, which packs an even greater punch due to Thewlis's stunning performance as the bitter Johnny.

Advantages: great to watch if you want to see naked women Disadvantages: not scary at all and crap story line
...well, what a crap film.
Basically its about 3 guys who are backpacking in amsterdam and are looking for women and are told to go to slovakia. they go and meet women in their hostel and bla bla bla they sleep wi them and one by one they go missing and end up in a warehouse thingy getting chopped up, sliced and diced by some weirdo?? anyway one guy escapes and goes home basically...bla bla bla
oh this is such a poor film. Is great for a guy to watch becuase the first say 1st hour odd its just girls dancing naked, walking about naked, showing their naked bodies off and sex sex sex...
**yawn**
however the special effect/make up was fantastic. there is only one memorable bit init.
would never recommend this to anyone. i wouldnt even watch this again if it was the only film left and there was nothing on tv!...

Advantages: South Park meets Naked Gun - that in itself should be enough for you to buy this. Disadvantages: Sometimes humour is a bit crude.
...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...
