Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie Reviews and Ratings



  • May 22, 2012
    (I've never watched an entire episode of Tim * Eric Awesome Show Great Job, just so ya know). As a film, this doesn't really work. As a comedy bit, it's pretty consistently hilarious. Fans of the show should love it. Non fans will smile a lot and likely laugh quite a bit.

    The movie itself, as well as every joke in it, comes down "funny concept, horrible execution." I could see what the were going for with most of the jokes, but their consistent problem is running the joke into the ground.

    Ever had one of those awkward friends with whom you shared... read more an inside joke you've had with other friends, and the awkward friend just thought it was SO funny that they used it every five minutes, untill it just wasn't funny anymore? Or they made a joke, you laughed at it, and they got so excited by the fact that they made you laugh, that they just kept going with the joke until it stopped being funny and just got obnoxious? Or they saw a joke or two in a movie or on TV, and they just want to cram that joke in to every situation?

    Ok, imagine that friend made a movie. When they were fourteen. While high.

    Congratulations. You just imagined this movie. Just. Freaking. Horrible. I challenge you to watch beyond the "this is shrim" seen. I couldn't.

    A Hit and Miss. While I loved this movie and found it hilarious, it was not really what I had hyped it up to be. There were some scenes that just did not have to be in the movie. But overall I give the movie credit for being hilarious. Only see if you are a fan of Tim and Eric

    Tim and Eric need to just stick with their television show and stay away from making movies.

    I am not familiar with Tim and Eric's previous antics so came into this not knowing what to expect. It's somewhere inbetween UHF and Zoolander with a sprinkling of Wizard of Speed and Time with a side of Bowfinger. Extra half star for Chef Goldblum and the after credits scene bei... read moreng actually after the full credits.

    For fans only. I'm about as big a fan as they come. I can't imagine what people who have no idea about Tim and Eric would think. It's full of call-backs to the TV series, weird editing tricks, and deliberately laboured set-pieces. Frequently hilarious, occasionally baffling, ... read moreresoundingly bizarre. I won't watch it again in a hurry, but I will watch it again.

    Unfortunately not what I was hoping for. There are definitely hilarious moments, but theres a lot of down time waiting for the next bit thats actually good. Overall they should have focused on making small skits (ala their show) instead of making a story based movie. Definitely a... read more missed opportunity.

    Once again proving the Law of Sketch Comedy Not Translating Well to the Big Screen, Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie takes their by turns brilliant, repulsive, and occasionally downright awful (intentionally and otherwise) sketch TV work and expands it from 11 minute pa... read moreckets of delirious lunacy into a 90 minute manifesto that, like the Strangers With Candy movie before it, makes one yearn for the more focused craziness of the TV show that spawned it.

    Their Tom Goes to the Mayor and Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job! boasted hilariously scathing parodies of trash culture, from hideous infomercials to wretched 80s rock videos, B-movies and, my personal favorite, small town TV news, in the form of "Married News Team" Jan and Wayne Skylar (assisted by the terminally clueless Dr. Steve Brule, played by John C. Reilly, who shows up here in a different role). Whereas those shows thrived on the menagerie of grotesque Americana characters constantly hurled at the screen, "B$M" focuses almost exclusively on the titular duo's fictional counterparts, and while the in-universe Tim and Eric make for amusing straight men to the ridiculous goings-on around them in their TV incarnations, their constant presence here eventually proves off-putting. Heidecker and Wareheim predictably ratchet up the f-bombs, violence and body humor--to alarming degrees in the latter case--but somehow fail to recognize that part of what made their skit work so funny was the barriers imposed upon them by standards and practices, and the often disturbing ways they subverted them. Here, with no such limitations, they go off the deep end into full blown frat house humor. Worse still, the celebrity cameos ("Chef" Goldblum aside) are distracting and mostly unfunny--Zach Galifianakis is cringe-worthy as always, in a bad way--and the mean-streak that lurked within Tom Goes to the Mayor and Awesome Show becomes far too prominent, lending many of the jokes and the film's climax a nasty aftertaste.

    Granted, it's all still pretty amusing, and the duo sporadically manage to deliver the kind of brilliantly hilarious nightmare fuel that is their stock and trade, but they fail to fully capitalize on their abandoned shopping mall locale and the opportunities for biting satire it presents. Nevertheless, the absurdly horrific revelation of "Shrim" will surely linger in audience's minds long after they've left the cinema (or their rental window has expired)--for better or worse.
