The Ringer (2005)
Okay, before I begin, I have to say normally I would never have even considered picking this up, but my roommate wanted to see it. Why would I not want to see it: One, it's Johnny Knoxville, who has never been funny to me. Two, the concept has already been done, in South Park of all places. And three... I mean... come on.
The Good:
I laughed at one part really hard (it was this on guy talking about ice cream... you'd just have to see that part).
I enjoyed the parts with the guys in the Special Olympics.
The Bad:
It was a terrible movie.
The moral of the story sucked, what I took away from it was, "If you lie, cheat and take advantage of the good-will in other people, you get the girl".
Did I mention it was already done in South Park?
I only laughed that one time, granted it was a real laugh, but in a comedy one laugh is not good.
Overall: Instead watch when Eric Cartman does the same thing. It is better written in South Park, it is better executed in South Park, it ... was better in South Park. If you want to watch a terrible comedy I recommend Joe's Apartment, the roaches are more talented than Johnny Knoxville and more likeable.
