the title of the film, is both marketable and suggestive of a sort of underdog antagonistic comedy.
the films has been criticized as being slap stick sophomoric gross out comedy, however i am someone that hates scriptwriters who create films exclusively based on stupidity and innuendo to cover up for the lack of wit an ingenuity in a film.
this film is not a sophmoric one, i believe it blends this element with the more ironic and wittier elements of the film.
the film successfully incorporates irony and use of exaggeration and men acting as children,as a comedy tool feature exemplifying the silly underlining principal, that they are doing all of this and taking it serious and they are men not children" creates the foundation of a consistent comedy backdrop that constantly derives sources of inspirational skit moments spontaneously and organically drawn.
a love a movie bringing a small insignificant thing into a major thang.
a little bit of steinfield, but set around a baseball farce and grown ups who are really kids and are immature and this makes it really funny.
the movie got into that witty territory commencing with a competing game of baseball against nuisance children who bully this poor kid who turns out that his father is a billionaire nerd as he self professed.
great gag baseballer father who is a billionaire nerd played by jon lovitz buying u the batmobile and nightrider.
the baseballer throwing his baseball bat into the trees and killing squirels reminds me of caddyshack which is a witty screwball light and feel good comedy.
a movie always has features intertwined to add spice to each scenes, a famous baseballer, a talking robot and the overzealous father not quite grown up.
the famous baseballer teaching the team baseball fundamentals in a very eccentric and funny way reminiscent of dodgeball teaching method. completely out of fun and very engaging.
the nerd versus jock rivalry is faintly apparent..well there is after all a nerd headquarters. some comedy bits might be silly, but on the whole the composition is harmonious
with the introduction, who are you? a great gimmick. the nerd seeing this billionaire with a nightrider.
jon lovitz character creates a great compliment with a notable feature showcasing his dream graving home. he comes into play in this film threading the dramatic rivalry amongst adults in the village. it felt for a moment that part of anchorman where all the channels have a fight scene.
the movie certainly draws you in, by introducing you to their rivals.
I love the part a nerd saying to the woman of interest," anything you want and the store is free" phrase overzealousy trying to impress the salad chick from pizza hut is cute.
the movie has depth of characterisations, not just the naturally funny rob sneider, but his moment reflecting his son might be a midget reject like he was in school, shows the depth of characterisations set in the backdrop of this successful comedy.
cause of the benchwarmers is the theme as set by the billionaire nerd.
Howie, Richie's agoraphobic brother is a worthy skit addition, that seemed so weird and shocking that it was funny. looking like a man dressed as a woman and is totally afraid to go outside for me is a witty addition adding to the outrageous exaggeration of what we may relate in our lives of what we may consider weird.
playing a tournament representing all the kids who were never allowed to exceed in sports and were bullied.
sometimes complete stupidity that is out of context and completely unexpected creates a sense of ironic humour that is basically hammering home, perhaps a metaphorical message when the baseball hits a man couple by the side of a kids pool and the ball destroys his dessert and he crys like a baby. i believe this stupidity is a form of wit characteristic of successful screwball comedies. like caddyshack was one big ironic pitch, where the game of golf was more important than the game itself, but was like water to these adults. how they recreated a whole weird and wonderful culture of contrasts like bill murray's grasskeeper pitch. totally out of sinc, but in sinc. ironic humour interplayed!!!
passing an adult as a 12 yr old to play the competition with a identity card written with a crayon and with a convenient 100 dollar bribe stash is funny. the drunk latino hits off very well. of course his weakness.howie also has to play baseball and gets an encouragement from the crowd. go weirdo.
not finishing with this big game and with pronounced rivalry and variation. especially for me i do not even follow baseball as an australian.
the end focuses gus being a bully himself. who is part of the good guy camp.
build it, the nerds will come", for years i thought the sun was a monster, it is not a monster it is not" some of classic quotes of the film.
the movie really spawns a positive message, we can all relate to the hipocritical benchwarmer growing up, especially the corruption in sport and its competitive nature.the benchwarmer is a sub culture and great niche this movie capitalised on and provided a great title and message to the movie. 3/5
