A Night at the Roxbury is one of the first Will Ferrell films that I first saw, and I thought it was a pretty decent comedy. The film is fun to watch, and is the only watchable Chris Kattan film. The film is quite simple in its execution. The film provides you with mild laughter,... read more

This movie is hilarious! Kattan and Ferrell make a brilliant team. Even though they look nothing like brothers, their relationship is believable, and very funny. All the actors in this are hilarious even in the smaller roles. It was hard to imagine that such a small SNL skit ... read more

Silly, stupid, and not very much fun (or funny). I didn't much care for this when I first saw it, and my feelings haven't gotten better since then.

Very funny and original SNL short that kinda makes it ok onto the big screen. An early film for both Ferrell and Katan but it still shows some really good chemistry and some really high laughs, its a shame they havent made more together. Its hugely dated now but so good to see, t... read more

Chris Kattan had most of the prominence in this movie more than Will Ferrell, but look who had the better career. Good "nothing-to-it" movie.

Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan are hilarious as the two club scene brothers that are so dorky. I think this is so funny to watch.
Do not get me wrong this is not a big screen life changing film but it is certainly a movie that will make you laugh out loud. I loved these cahrac... read more

A Night at the Roxbury probably never had a shot at being funny anyway, but I don't think it planned to be pathetic. It's the first comedy I've attended where you feel that to laugh would be cruel to ... Full Review
Not the rock-bottom worst of the SNL skit-derived films, but pretty darn close... Full Review
Anyone who is more than momentarily diverted by this motion picture has such a radically different idea from me of what constitutes 'entertainment' that we may never agree on anything. Full Review
Let's look at the bright side. America is still the land of opportunity if Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan can make a movie. Full Review
The director, John Fortenberry, whose background is in television, has probably done the best that can be done with characters who were never meant to speak. Full Review
It would take far better writing than Kattan, Ferrell and Steve Koren can muster to make it less than an ordeal. Full Review
based on this, i did not expect ferrell to make it big
