I had never even heard of the "Saturday Night Live" skit this was based on. All I knew about this was the massive amount of buzz it created as a meme on YTMND. I honestly think it set a record for biggest meme on that entire website. I admit to not knowing really why, because the movie's mediocre at best. This movie features two brothers who try to get in at a nightclub called the Roxbury. Actually, only half of the movie is that.The other half is them trying to get girls. It's pretty clichéd, especially with how it's about two guys who split up and have to get back together. I kept thinking Jim Carrey was involved in this somehow. Apparently, he WAS, but it was only uncredited as a writer. Some jokes are good, but for the most part, it's pretty forgettable. Again, the music is amazing. **

This is one of those movies which I saw an ad for and decided that I wanted to see it. My first impression was that it was about two guys in the vein of Bill and Ted. Afterwards I began to have second thoughts yet I still went along to see it. My final opinion of this movie is that it is good, and quite funny in parts. When the movie's gags stick in my mind then the comedy has succeeded.A Night at the Roxbury are about two brothers who cruise the nightclub circuit of Los Angeles looking for girls. Their dream is to own a night club, but they really are not all that cool. In fact they find themselves thrown out of more night clubs than let into them. Their jokes are funny to them but nobody else. In fact, they live in their own little world in which they want people to be apart of, but the serious people think they are pure donks. What ends up happening is that the owner of the Roxbury, the best nightclub in Los Angeles, actually likes them and wants to implement their ideas, yet his driver thinks him mad and does not like them.This is not the plot though. The main focus of the movie is their relationship with their father. Their father has great plans for them, but they don't want to pursue them. One of them is really unsure, and after they have a fight, he is easily taken away, forced to marry a woman that he really does not like, and to run a business he does not want to run.There is an interesting warning in the movie - don't jump on the woman that chases you around because you will discover that she is trying to mould you to what she wants you to be. I can think of a woman who is like that, and fortunately my friends managed to pull me away from her.I can't really think of any deep or meaningful thing to say about this movie, but that is not its point. A Night at the Roxbury is not a deep movie, it is a fun movie. It shows you that what normal people consider donks can succeed in their bizarre plans. It is interesting that they get their nightclub and become partners with the most prominent nightclub owner in the city. It gives us an idea of what the night life is like, but at this point in history it is something that we don't need to know. I still liked this movie though.

I would like to start by saying I absolutely loved this movie. This is one of my all time favourite comedy movies.This isn't exactly Oscar Wilde humour. It is run in the mill cheap but absolutely adorable humour. Will Ferell and Kris Kattan are so funny as the brothers Doug and Steve Butabi and try all you want to not laugh, you will end up splitting your guts with laughter.Richard Greiko has some a little but very important role to play and he does well, really well.I watched this movie with some good friends, some good pop corn and a couple of beers over a weekend and we all laughed so hard. This is quite the rib tickler.My rating 7/10. Must Watch !!

"A Night At The Roxbury" is yet another in a string of "Saturday Night Live" sketches to make it to the big screen. Not as classic as "Wayne's World," while not as terrible as "It's Pat!," this flick finds a happy medium. It's not comedy gold, but at the same time, it's mindless and innocent fun. Those who are fans of late 90's "SNL" in particular will revel in the nostalgia it induces. And even if you're not of that percentage, it's worth a gander to see Will Ferrell in one of his earliest movie roles, as one of two Butabi brothers, opposite Chris Kattan, who has sadly faded away in comparison to Ferrell's success.About the movie: The Butabi brothers live a simple life. By night, they cruise the city, hopping from nightclub to nightclub, failing to gain entry to the holy grail that is The Roxbury. By day they sleep it all off, while managing to find time to work in the plastic plant store owned by their father. Their dream of becoming night-club hot-shots comes true when Richard Grieco (of "21 Jump Street" fame) rear-ends them, and in lieu of a lawsuit, agrees to get the brothers into their dream club. From there they make a new, high-profile connection, hook up with a couple of gold-diggers who give them some much needed life-experience while simultaneously proving to the world that they aren't massive failures and/or losers. Starring opposite Ferrell and Kattan are other "SNL" alumni Molly Shannon, Colin Quinn and Mark McKinney, as well as Lochlyn Munro, Dan Hedaya, Loni Anderson, Michael Clark Duncan, Eva Mendes ad Jennifer Coolidge. The movie has got limited appeal and screams "1990's" but if you're willing enough to let your guard down and enjoy a light-weight buddy comedy, "A Night At The Roxbury" will do just fine. With Will Ferrell showing some early comedic chops and obvious improvisation, as well as a strong nostalgic sense, it's the kind of movie that is hard not to at least crack a smile at.
