I must say I read with astonishment the comments about this video being "empowering" and "uplifting". Obviously there are some Amazon amateur reviewers who desperately need to get out more. Fails as a comedy, fails as a psychological examination of repression, succeeds only in conveying a bit of Rik Mayall's talent, here chained to an unlikeable premise and heavy-handed director. Phoebe Cates's blank doe-eyed stare will make you reach for the remote.

This review is from: Drop Dead Fred (DVD)
This is one of, if not the worst movie I've almost seen. I got up and walked out of it and got my money back. Cates gives me serious wood but even that couldn't keep me watching it. DO NOT waste your money! I would, if I could, give it a negative star rating, one star is way too good for it. <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top>

This is by far the worst video I have ever seen. After thirty minutes, I returned it and insisted I receive my 99 cents back. Do yourself a favor and dont rent it. If you do, remember I told you so. By the way, I gave it one star only because I had to fill in all fields. <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top>

Crud!, <NOBR>January 5, 2002</NOBR>
By
A Customer
Leonard Maltin was right about this one. What a lame movie with a plot idea that could've worked if it was done right. Instead, we get this huge pile of crud that is supposed to be funny and entertaining. Sorry folks, not gonna find it here. I'm all for silly, stupid stuff that serves just as innocent entertainment, but this isn't funny at all. Not even in the enjoyable 'stupid' way. It's just plain stupid. The glowing reviews for this film is downright astonishing!. This movie sucks really bad and does not deserve any acclaim whatsoever. It would be best if Fred did just drop dead!. <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top>

Awful, <NOBR>March 8, 1999</NOBR>
By
A Customer
This movie was awful. Rik Mayall shouting and screaming is not my idea of humor. It could drive you to the brink of suicide, just so that it could end. It seriously gave me an migrane. To simply put it "God Awful Annoying". <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top>
