Good Points

Very funny!! Throwing tools!! Stiller is legendary!

Bad Points

A bit summarised during the games and making it a little short! But it's only a small problem since it's only meant to be a light comedy which works very well!!

General Comments

Dodgeball!! Is the real underdog story of the Amercian sporting society! Tops films like the Mighty Ducks mainly because of humour which is strange for an "underdog" film. Usually these films are aimed at the children but Stiller has the techique which is used in films like Police Academy and Naked Gun. He makes the film into a "spoof" with quite a brillant outcome and it is aimed more towards young adults! Some moments are genius like the five rules of dodgeball! Plus the idea of using dodgeball (the game you're banned to play in the playground - the U.S. version of British Bulldog to an extent). The ending is also very clever too! Dodgeball isn't for Mr. Serious but if he went to see it he might laugh!! This is the funniest film of the last few years!! I give it 9.5!!!
