Sorry, this movie sucks

Simply A Masterpiece

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

The other reviewers weer clearly in it for the penis jokes, and I guess they must be brainwashed into political correctness to the point that they completely missed the gay sex jokes and several instances of penis jokes, sure it's not a very memorable movie but it was a solid one in its own right, without spoiling anything, there is a scene where the main characters are riding bumper cars at a theme park and a little girl bumps one of them into the side rail, so they all drive towards and bump her at the same time, (keep in mind that bumper cars do not move very fast and its actually difficult to get a good hit on someone) she inexplicably launches into the ceiling and not another word is mentioned of the incident. if that's not hilarious then this movie is not for you. if you just want a series of penis jokes maybe you should check out some other film.

One question; what happened to the laughs? "Wieners", as a comedy, failed to deliver. From the looks of the cover, it looks like a fairly straight up comedy that resembles something of a mix between a Nation Lampoons and typical teenage comedy. And I do believe that the movie appeals to a younger audience, but still, what happened to the laughs?For a movie with a name like "Wieners", you would assume there would be more sausages and jokes related to guy's private parts in it, but oddly enough there was almost none of either. The movie had potential to put up a lot of such moments, but just didn't do it.This is basically just a dull version of a road-trip movie that didn't make it all the way to the goal.The cast in "Wieners" were fairly good. The movie was carried by Kenan Thompson (playing Wyatt), and he was also the one that sported the most laughs, for some reason. He got help from Zachary Levi (playing Ben) and Fran Kranz (playing Joel). On the list are more interesting names such as Darrell Hammond (playing Dr. Dwayne), Mindy Sterling (playing Mrs. Applebaum) and a super great performance by Blake Clark (playing Mr. Applebaum).I had expected to be laughing more throughout the movie, so I was disappointed when the movie ended, and I was left with a hot dog that sadly enough was missing mustard, ketchup and the works.

I've been hearing a lot of bad things about the comedy, Wieners. I happened to run into it on television, and all I have to say is that it is a very, very funny movie. Kenan Thompson is very funny as Wyatt, who along with his two friends, Ben (the fantastic Zachary Levi), and Joel (Fran Kranz) go on a road trip to take revenge on a TV show host named Dr. Dwayne (Darrell Hammond) who insulted them. This turns into your typical, stupid road trip film. The only difference is that this is literally breathtakingly funny. It was not smart, but I found myself laughing continuously. One of the funnier, yet more disgusting moments involves Jenny McCarthy as their formerly hot teacher, Ms. Isaac who has now become an unattractive redneck. This movie may understandingly not speak to some, but for fans of comedies like Road Trip, American Pie, and Old School, this will be undeniably fun. Even for some non-fans of those types of films, this movie should definitely without a doubt be extremely funny. Thompson, Levi, Kranz, and Hammond have all been excellent before, and are good as ever here. Definitely one worth checking out.

'Wieners' is a budget installment in the genre of teen sex comedies such as 'American Pie' and 'Porky's'.The humor is hit and miss. Some of the gags did in fact tickle my funny bone, but many just fell flat. As the title name would imply, the majority of the humor is centered around sexual innuendo and themes. 'Wieners' was surprisingly less raunchy than I would have assumed, and that actually works in it's favor. The plot is more or less a disposable vehicle for the comedy, centering around a group of friends heading cross-country in a hot dog van to seek revenge on a daytime talk show host.The hijinx and situational comedy encountered on the road trip are, of course, the highlights of this movie.If an median movie is a 5, this is a slightly subpar bit of cinema, yet not a completely wasted effort or a true stinkbomb.4/10 -
