Why isn't this movie available at our local video stores yet? πŸ˜•
I watched a digital copy online, but if there's a DVD out there,
I'd love to rent it.

Has anyone else seen it?

Watched it a few days ago. Can't say it's one of the best things I've seen lately, but for a Sunday afternoon? Pretty solid work.

It’s actually been available in video rental stores for quite a while now.

It hit our local shelves on DVD at least three months agoβ€”if not longer, actually.

I feel like I absolutely have to weigh in on this movie...
It’s been a long time since I’ve sat through something quite like this. Honestly, how does anyone even manage to make a film this incredibly, mind-numbingly irritating? I actually tried to power through itβ€”watched it two or three times just to see if I could handle itβ€”but it's impossible. My sister gave up after about fifteen minutes; she got so frustrated she practically wanted to smash my computer to pieces...

But in all seriousness, watching this thing feels like it’s physically draining the life out of you. It’s one of those movies where you genuinely feel the urge to chuck your TV right out the window.

On IMDb, it’s sitting at an 8.9 rating, which is usually reserved for absolute masterpieces...
And then there’s this comment attached to it: "some will love it, some will hate it."--

The whole experience was just painfully aggravating. So, I’m curiousβ€”what did you guys think?

I’m actually a huge fan of Napoleon Dynamite. I’ve honestly lost track of how many times I’ve rewatched it. 😳
The humor just hits right for me. Pedro is such a legend, and that whole bit with the chapstick... man, it’s gold.

And don't even get me started on that dance scene 😍 😍

πŸ‘I'm with you, I loved it too... especially that part where he's out in the field with the van, just vibing with that ball... and man, his dance moves are straight-up iconic.

Alright, look... two girls I know said they actually liked it. So, apparently, it has some appeal to women. For me, though? I absolutely couldn't stand it. There was this one guy acting in it who just kept talking with this weird, smug little smirk on his face... honestly, it was nauseating. Just thinking about describing it makes my blood boil. (I’m half-tempted to file a formal complaint against whoever produced that movieβ€”is that even a thing you can do?)

And don't even get me started on the scene where Uncle Rico buys a time machine... 😍

@ Maria Ruiz...
The movie's worth a watch, give it a chance...

I actually tried watching it twice myself, but I just couldn't get through it. It was honestly pretty irritating...

Hey, everyone’s entitled to their own opinion, I guess...πŸ˜‰

No, you can't sue them, but there is a strictly enforced law stating that anyone who dislikes a movie should be sentenced to death. So, if I were you, I’d proactively turn yourself in at the nearest police station. It would be much more efficient for taxpayers to spend their money on actual public services rather than tracking down redundant individuals like yourself.

Watched it a few times now and it hits the spot every single time. One of the most original pieces of trash cinema out there.😁

In my opinion, the single greatest scene in cinematic historyβ€”and perhaps in all of filmβ€”is that moment when the eccentric old man working on the egg farm starts rambling about The Archer. Honestly, man, that part absolutely rocks. πŸ™

This movie was absolute gold.😘 A little change of pace is always good, especially when it's this kind of funβ€”I can't remember the last time I laughed this hard.

This movie was honestly so infuriatingβ€”I lost my mind after just a few minutes of watching those losers. I ended up storming over to the local Blockbuster, telling them I couldn't even get the damn thing to play on my computer, so I just grabbed something else instead... πŸ‘
