Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

You and your stupid mate is another in a long line of Australian comedy flops.It shamelessly rips off dumb and dumber with its two main characters, Jeffery (Angus Sampson) and Phillip (Nathan Philips).While the afore mentioned title was somewhat mildly amusing this effort should never have even been made.Our two hero's both clients of Centre Link, embark on a ridiculous quest to save their favorite soapy,Sons & Surf after learning that it is soon to be axed.Thats pretty much it plot wise. The two leads have very little chemistry and meander through this awful film encountering just as lame characters as themselves with the exception of "Evo" one of the soaps stars, his short montage featuring him dealing with the public saying his characters catch phrase back to him "Whats going on here" is about as funny as this film gets.Other than that its basically just the odd dick joke, moronic laughter and a story line thinner than a french crepe.

This has a couple of "laugh out loud" moments, but it really is a bad movie.It being an Australian movie, i tried to be a loss let critical.Badly cast..Nathan Philip's was unbelievable and unfunny.Angus Sampson was OK, but not that funny either.It looked like it had a reasonable budget, for an Aussie flick, but it was majorly wasted into a lame script that tried WAY too hard.It is one of those movies where you say at the end of it "well that was sh*t." It was almost as bad as "The Extra" and It made "Hating Alison Ashley" look like a masterpiece ( that film actually was better than expected).Verdict:A complete waste of money and embarrassment to the film industry.

The first half hour of the film is a riot!, and then it runs out of idea's and resorts to 101 recycled American comedy cliques. Even though some would say it's a waste of Australian's taxpayer's money, it's only half a waste. Also what was the story with the history lesson on Ned Kelly? Do i suspect this is an poor attempt on selling this overseas? Haven't previous Aussie film makers realized that anyone outside of Australia doesn't really give a toss about Ned Kelly? All round it's OK for a half baked attempt at comedy and for a DVD rental it's worth catching! The DVD commentary is also a riot. It's as if the director is commentating on a Academy Award masterpiece, was he seriously watching what we where?

The Australian film industry can surely be a hit and miss affair. There have been some rippers, but this ain't one of them. Everything pertaining to this film is embarrassing, particularly the knowledge that my tax went into paying for it. Everything from the comedy...or lack there of, the attempted sentimentality and the redemptive themes only added to make this film a failure from opening to closing credits.Its a shame that this isn't even in the class of awful that would make it legendary for its awfulness. Its just an embarrassment. I hope William McInnes and Rachel Hunter were only in it for the money, cause it didn't do their reputations any favours.Final comment: don't bother. Spend the money on fish and chips instead.
