Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story Reviews
We need more studio comedies where Stephen Root is a lead cast member.

a few lapses aside, Dodgeball has its heart in the right place when it comes to embracing a team of lovable misfits overcoming ridiculous odds
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 2, 2022
It's laugh-a-minute comedy at it's finest. What could be better?

Though the gags are only occasionally funny, the climax is surprisingly satisfying - despite fulfilling the most generic dark horse movie scenario.
| Original Score: 6/10 | Sep 29, 2020
It's tremendously silly, occasionally sweet but generally nonsensical.
| Original Score: 2.5/4.0 | Sep 6, 2020
A hilarious screwball comedy that features a strong cast and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 18, 2008
The jokes fly as wildly as the titular sports gear, landing solidly more often than you'd expect thanks to a fast-paced script and a cast of good-natured misfits led by Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 18, 2008
Stiller is in fine form and just watching his exaggerated, paranoid egocentric White is amusing in itself.

Trash comedies such as this are usually more painful than funny, but writer-director Rawson Marshall Thurber pulls enough hilarious gags and cameos out of his gym bag to qualify his first feature as the summerâ(TM)s first guilty pleasure.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 7, 2008
Stiller gives one of his broadest and best performances to date, and the jokes ping around the screen as fast as the balls on the court.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 5, 2008
This masterpiece of modern cinema depends upon a single truism: A guy getting hit in the nuts a hundred times in a row is funny a hundred times.
Full Review | Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 14, 2007
The film wants only to pit its common-man heroes against a bunch of colorful, laughable adversaries, and achieves this goal admirably.
| Original Score: B | Jul 30, 2007
White Goodman is one of Stiller's craziest creations, a hilariously dim-witted and mean-spirited jock that doesn't realize how pathetic he really is.

The biggest laughs come from a cameo, which is never a good sign.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 22, 2006
Can somebody please stop Ben Stiller?
| Original Score: 1/4 | May 26, 2006
I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard at seeing a young man get beaned in the head with a wrench.
