Saw that it had Chris O'Dowd and thought it would be worth seeing. WRONG! As SnoopyStyle6 said in the review "Someone please shoot Chris O'Dowd in the face", I think that's being to generous to both him and his character. Why would he do something as horrible as this, we may never know. His character should have been immediately beaten and his remains should have then been dragged off to jail. There you go, the movie should have been over in less than 30 minutes, because it is completely unrealistic that he would have allowed his so called brother continue to abuse him as he had, and the mother should have been disowned for having been so completely worthless and enabling. I have to believe that the people who claim this movie is funny either don't know what funny is, or are simply deprived of seeing ANY that is truly funny.

Frankie goes boom, sometimes , to me , seems too "real" to be funny, but at that same moment , it makes you laugh, ...so, ...hard to describe, It has a real "grittiness" to the humor,...I kept saying to myself, this is not going to be funny"...and then finding myself laughing ...I am on my third watching, so it has my "re watcher" stamp, but still that feeling remains. "franky goes boom' has the ability to make you uncomfortable, it also has the ability to make you laugh... I definitely recommend "franky" as a comedy , but you REALLY need to have a sense of humor--if not , you wont enjoy.It got a 7 out of ten rating , and a re watcher stamp from me .

Awesome, quirky movie, funny fantastic cast. Just when you think you've reached the limit of comedic endurance, the next scene pushes you beyond that boundary and to a new ragged edge of hilarity. What a cast, what a plot, what an absolute 'destined to be a cult classic' movie! If I see this flick a hundred times I will still lose it, laughing with each turn of the plot. Warning- you may end up giggling insanely for hours after watching this one, friends. Being from Los Angeles myself, I feel that I might have met some of these people in my travels and now remember why I left the Golden State in the first place. If you do not see this movie you have only yourself to blame for missing the funniest film of at least a decade! There, I've said my piece; the rest is up to you...Theo macConnell Jr.

I Downloaded this movie from I Tunes. I was so excited to watch it. I got exactly what I had wanted from it. Some of those scenes I could never ever forget. So glad that I did not miss seeing this. Ron Perlman as Phyllis just put the cherry on his acting career for me. The fates of the world surprise you everyday. Amazing and funny!!! Lassie was adorable -Lizzy Caplan!!! Naked tag had me dying in laughter... I liked how the story was told. Even though it was cheesy for real life the ending of a Knight dipped in metal was adorable. My husband is the love of my life so I am a sucker for love and happy endings. The film had a homey look to it that made it interesting and unique!!!AND WHO Don't LIKE A LIL IN AND OUT ACTION!!!
