What exactly is Hollywood and it's resident cast of highly paid men and women trying to pull? Atrocious, worst ever contender movies are usually only released several years apart of each other. However since the turn of the millennium, we've had at least one or two movies per year that attempts to challenge Manos for the crown of worst movie ever!
In 2003 it was the loathsome vanity project Gigli. In 2004 Catwoman became the fall of Halle Berry. Now as we reach the halfway point in this decade, the spotlight falls on one Deuce Bigalow, by far and large, the surefire, shoe-in worst movie of 2005.
Do you remember a film that was compressed full of shouting, toilet jokes, pointless sick humour and downright deplorable? That's right Tom Green's Freddy Got Fingered. Basically my point is that we already have ONE movie like that. We don't need another one! But of course, the sick twisted people at Hollywood's creative department wouldn't listen to our pleas and once again the box office is infested with another summer sickener to rank with Batman & Robin, Star Wars Phtntom Menace et al.
I think I'd better point out at this point that this film is actually Mike Bigalow's first ever directing job. So talk about a fast learner! Maybe we've a new Hal Warren! Bigalow believes that combining toilet humour, foul language, bodily functions, awful plot and half assed acting will guarantee a major summer success.....right.
What Bigalow hadn't figured was that people would hate this kind of vile celluloid with a passion and begin calling for refunds, moments of their life back & probably not surprisingly, Bigalow's head! Rob Scheider (normally quite competent) ought to be hanging his head in shame after turning in this woeful performance. And it will count against him this time. Affleck and Lopez were slaughtered for ages over Gigli and Schneider could face the same backlash. His recent CV is starting to look blotted.
The rest of the acting is very poor and the dialogue and plot can only be summed up in two words. Bloody Awful. For instance in one scene, a man eats chips out of a toilet and smacks himself with a wooden leg, over & over & over until the viewer begs for mercy or falls asleep. How I long to see Tom Green whack his paraplegic girlfriend over the legs again.....ahhhh.
Deuce Bigalow goes up against 40 Year Old Virgin in the box office, another raunchy R-rated comedy in which the humour is based on a certain apprehensiveness towards female sexuality. However 40YOV treats the subject properly. Deuce Bigalow treats it with a disrespect of such magnitude, you feel like jamming sandpaper over your balls!
Deuce Bigalow is by a country mile the worst movie of 2005 and another harsh lesson that toilet humour doesn't wash anymore in this millennium. Freddy Got Fingered is so bad it's good. Deuce Bigalow is so bad it's soul destroying.
