    Wicked Awesome

    This is my all time favorite movie ever. If you are ready to laugh your head off then grab a bunch of friends and watch this movie together.

    Doug and Steve Butabi come out with the funniest sayings that you'll be repeating with your friends for a long time. They have got tons of catch phrases you can use everyday. "Are you two brothers?" "No... Yes! get em every time! yea Doug's hilarious!" I've practically memorized the whole movie! You've got to see it! Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell work wonderfully together and provide non-stop laughter for people of all ages. If you haven't seen this movie then I suggest you see it and then spread the word on how good it is!

    one of my top 10 comedies of all time

    When this movie hit the screens in the summer of 1998 (or was it 99 in Turkey - anyways), no one knew what it was in Turkey and a very few people went and saw it, I was one of the more fortunate ones to have done so, and i did this twice!!

    Yes, i laughed my head off.. Once with my best pal, and the next day with my brother.

    It is one of those movies which keeps that stupid smile on your face all through the movie. The Butabi brothers and their relationships with the whole world and their fascination for clubs, women and EMILIOOOO! is a must see for everyone who likes a good laugh.

    I can't get the scene where the brothers are loading the flowers into the van. Some really funny stuff.

    I bought this on video and have watched it dozens of times and it never gets old. Definitely recommend it...

    Funny Stuff

    Well the first time i saw this film it kind of reminded me of how me and my friend used to joke around and it really made me feel dumb about myself cause something i would act dumb like that too. I really thought this movie was funny in my point of view. The music in this film is probably the best music in any film to me because i love trance and house music so this was a good movie to watch. In the movie Steve and Doug dont even look like brothers but they sure act like it. I love how they do slow moving shots. makes you laugh and wanna watch at the same time wondering what is going to happen. One of the best parts of this movie are the lines, like did you grass my butt, or you outta town you new, aiight. There are plenty of them in the movie and i even use them in everyday life cause its just funny. This movie should be ranked higher in the imdb. In my opinion i give it a 10 rating.

Laughs, tears, head bobbing, clubs, romance...............SCORE! I would love to go to a club where the inside looks like the outside, and the outside looks like the inside. I recommend this movie to everyone! That's right.. everyone! 9.2/10

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      According to Chris Kattan, after completing the film, Will Ferrell didn't speak to Kattan again until the 23rd season of Saturday Night Live due to an on set relationship between Kattan and producer Amy Heckerling having upset Ferrell. Kattan alleged that Ferrell had said "so, I got all your messages, but I didn't call you back because I didn't want to talk to you." The production of this film caused the end of their friendship, which had started when they were both members of the Groundlings. They worked together on SNL until Ferrell left at the end of season 27, but have never collaborated on anything since then.
    • Goofs
      When talking to Richard Grieco after he runs into their van, the fake plant foliage the brothers are covered in disappears and reappears between shots.

      Steve Butabi: The Mighty Duck man, I swear to God, I was there.
