Yes this is old, but... what do you think of the movie "Napoleon Dynamite"?

The first time I saw it, I thought that it was the dumbest movie ever... until I saw it again, then I thought it was a movie we could all relate to... in a stupid sense.

The beauty of it, is that it was made with a low budget, it was full of unknowns, and it made no damn sense, but they made money off it!

I can't wait for the sequal!

I heard about this a week before it hit theatres, my friend said I HAD to see it... I thought it was gonna be dumb. Walked into the theatre and laughed my ass off.

I walked out going WOW that was like SO me in middle school
::blushes::
yeah I was a dork in middle school, I grew out of it come high school and moved to FL. I hate FL for it though... this state is what I call "24/7 party... and it'll break you in more way then one", I'd so much rather be a dork still, i see the dork in me still today, well hidden behind everything else. Look at me, I'm on a SEGA forum, the dorks still there!

But anyway, I liked the film mucho, a sequel sounds trashy... what I really liked most about the film was the fact it was very CLEAN humor. We don't get much clean humor anymore... you'll notice how they NEVER cuss in the film. I really liked that.

Never saw it and never met anyone that reccomends it.

I've yet to see this and have been meaning to get around to it. Gotta remember to rent it one of these days.

It sucked.

I only watched the movie because everyone raves about how good it is, so... I'm still finding myself asking: what's with all the hype about? I didn't find the film to be funny, but rather stupid and slow.

I think the only part of the movie that had me on the floor laughing was when the farmer shot the cow in front of the kids on the bus. There where a few other parts that made me give out a little snicker, but that's it.

Regardless, I will watch the sequel just to see how bad it is.

Well Vicman knows how much I love this movie.

It's mostly a movie for people like me, you laugh at really random,dumb,but sort of clever things

Overall 8.5/10

Its an extemely dumb movie about a small town full of geeks and nerds. One in particular, Napoleon sorta finds himself.

It was ok...I don't reccomend buying it...rent it or borrow it or HBO/Stars. I give it 6/10.

Never saw that one and probably won't go out of my way to get it either. Still, I do give kudos to the creators for coming out with something that isn't another re-make of an older movie.

The latest travesty Hollywood is heaping on us is The Fog. Sorry, you're not going to do better than John Carpenter on a budget.
