'Division III: Football's Finest'
(Andy Dick, Marshall Cook, Bryan Callen, Will Sasso, Adam Carolla, et al / DVD / R / 2012 / IMAGE Entertainment)
Overview: Meet bad coach Rick Vice, a redneck psycho with a suspect record (the attempted murder of a Pee Wee football team). When the Pulham Blue Cocks coach drops dead on the sidelines, Vice is the last resort to turn around the worst team in college football's worst division (it's one step up from Nerf!).
DVD Verdict: Yes, yes, yes, I knew watching Andy Dick in anything was going to be a huge waste of time! His erratic acting has never sat well with me, in truth. So, I decided to watch this movie anyway, not only because it's part of my job, but because someone I personally knew was featured in film! In a small, small way, of course! And sure, ok, just with Andy Dick alone in the flick I knew this movie was going to have some comedic elements that would make me smile - cringe, moreover, but funny should be scattered; one could only hope!
That ALL said, I was very surprised how much I actually laughed throughout the movie! Really enjoyed it, in fact! Indeed, I'd recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great laugh! Basically, for all intents and purposes, 'Division III: Football's Finest' is a redneck version of the highly unfunny 'The Replacements.' It is a purely slapstick comedy, but smarter in pockets. It follows a typical sports movie underdog team path, but it's way fresh, and tons of jokes layered-on-top! This is a Widescreen Presentation (1.77:1) enhanced for 16x9 TVs.
