"..."Benchwarmers" is funny and honest, a real laugh out loud heartwarmer."

posted by tabbiface on Aug 01, 2006

I thought it was really funny. The people who are rating it low are either upset because they have deep-seeded problems with the jokes (such as having the problems being made fun of) or prefer 'funny' movies like side-ways, that should have been thrown in the garbage and never sent to the big screen. The cast is wonderfully funny, and I recommend the movie to anyone who can stand to laugh.
