Okay, I know this film is about as dumb as it gets but man did my friends and I get a laugh out of it. I started listening to the Jerky Boys many years ago and their first two audio recordings were some of the funniest stuff I ever heard (that and the Tube Bar recordings). When I heard a movie was actually coming out, I new it was going to be bad and filled up with old jokes from their earlier recordings. But that was what I was hoping for. I wasn't really looking for anything new, I was just looking for some live action versions of the calls, and that is basically what I got.
The story is Johnny and Kamal are two losers who have been hanging out since little kids making prank phone calls. They grow up and haven't changed a bit. One day they see an old school friend (not really a friend) who says he is working for the mafia. So what do Johnny and Kamal do? They call up this mob boss played by Alan Arkin. They say they were sent by Frank Rizzo and basically they completely make a fool of him. Well, the story continues like this and they get in all sorts of trouble and have to incorporate much of their alternate personalities to survive from being lynched by the mob at the end.
This is incredibly stupid, but a lot of fun. Don't expect to much out of the movie but if you are a fan you should get some laughs out of this. I give it a 7/10.
