Was rated 8.3 by 23 people when I decided to watch this fertilizer-bomb. 22 of those people were obviously homeless alcoholics who were reward with a bottle of Thunderbird in return for a high star-rating. I was especially floored by the terrible actor who was cast as a grade D Jack Nicholson look-a-like. Please, you've only got one life, do not spend 2 hours of it on this wretched movie. Lilly, the physical therapist is cute. Too bad the actress had an early debut in this disaster. I am struggling to find anything else positive to day about Worst Friends... was about to offer, as a positive, that it is not subtitled, but if it were subtitled, we wouldn't hear the awful script.

i was surfing around for a comedy and this one came up on time warner. i liked it a lot more than i thought i would. never seen a person from the cast, never heard of the director, but thought it was solid. the humor was funny, the drama was dramatic. that's how you want your movies, right? to hit in the right places? my only issues were i thought the female characters could have been better written and that the reason for why the two "worst friends" were ever friends in the first place was not particularly clear. maybe it was not supposed to be, maybe it was supposed to be more of an artsy, ambiguous thing, but it didn't work for me because i kept want to understand what was at the root of it. why even bother with each other if all they do is cause grief? but that one issue did not take away from what was ultimately a pretty good movie with good acting and funny moments.

This is a damn funny little flick chock-full of great character actors in lead and supporting roles. The most recognizable faces include Geoffrey Arend (Snozzberries!) and Katherine Erbe (from Oz and Stir of Echoes), but there's a ton of others, including many people you know you know from somewhere but can't necessarily place it. There's Larry Fessenden (the first kill in You're Next), Deanna Russo (the first kill in Rest Stop), Kristen Connolly (the final girl from Cabin in the Woods), Cody Horn (tough End of Watch chick), and Richard Tanne (dude who gets eaten alive in Swamp Shark). It's a lot of fun just going through the film and figuring out where you know everyone from. Tanne and Noah Barrow (a newcomer) give the strongest performances. They star as two childhood friends who re-unite in their 20s when one gets into a car accident and needs a live-in helper. That probably makes it sound like an uplifting drama but quite the opposite. It's a demented comedy that lives somewhere between a Kevin Smith film and a Wes Anderson film. Maybe with a little Todd Solondz sprinkled in. Loved it!

Downloaded it tonight, liked it a lot. There's some laughs, there's some tears, all-around good flick. Basically a guy is hit by an incoming ice cream truck and when his low-life dad skips town, his friend from growing up has to nurse him back to health. To say they don't get along is under-selling it. They pretty much hate each other from the start, which was one of the things I didn't fully understand, but I guess there are just some people like that in life. The main character will remind you of everyone you loved to hate growing up. You know that sound Jim Carrey makes as the most annoying sound in the world in Dumb and Dumber? That's this guy for pretty much the entire movie, but it's that way for a reason, you'll see. 7/10
