Amazon.co.uk Review
An entry into an already rather overcrowded market, Dude, Where's My Car? is a very dumb but exuberant comedy aimed fairly and squarely at the teen market. An attempt to recreate the classic feel of certain movies from the late 80s and early 90s, it centres around two hopeless individuals (Jesse and Chester) and their efforts to piece together the night before and, more importantly, find Jesse's car. The plot--such as it is, takes in many a convoluted turn with the introduction of transsexual strippers and aliens but still finds itself stretched thin over the course of the meagre 79 minutes. The film's aspirations are clear. With it's central duo and infuriating use of catchphrases it is almost a direct steal from Wayne's World and Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, both of which are leagues ahead in terms of writing, performance and general style. The humour here is base and far too obvious, concentrating on the old standbys of sex and toilets, plus a small dig at blind children along the way. For a better example of such humour head for the genuinely funny American Pie or, for a teen comedy with actual intelligence and panache, the peerless 10 Things I Hate About You.

On The DVD: The extensive range of extra features are in keeping with the overall style of the project. The audio commentary from director Danny Leiner and his two main stars is simply a succession of in-jokes and childish hysterics, while the behind the scenes documentary is equally banal. There is a selection of extended scenes, trailers and TV spots plus a music video from Grand Theft Auto, the best thing about the whole package. --Phil Udell

5.0 out of 5 stars Drama at its finest, 10 May 2008
By Wayne Redhart "Also on Twitter!" (West Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
In recent years there has been a strong tendency for Hollywood film-makers to derive their plots from the work of William Shakespeare- the master playwright of Stafford-upon-Avon. 'My Own Private Idaho' was modelled on 'Henry IV' and 'Ten things I hate about you' has firm roots within 'The Taming of the Shrew'. Even Baz Luhrman's 'Romeo and Juliet' is rumoured to contain a handful of allusions to the bard's work. Less well-known, however, is the fact that the film 'Dude Where's My Car' constitutes a contemporary homage to 'The Merchant of Venice'.

Adapted for MTV by its star Seann William Scott (best known for his role as Fistler in the 'American Beauty' films) and his father, director Ridley Scott (who famously directed the Oscar-winning TV game-show 'Gladiators'), this is an extremely respectful take. Although Shakespeare's archaic idiom has been heavily updated, I am sure that any scholar would agree that the essence of the bard's content has not only been preserved, but also diluted to taste. If Shakespeare were still alive today, there can be little doubt that he would be laughing inside his grave. However, it is interesting to note that a large quantity of footage was omitted from the original theatrical release (after Shakespeare's notoriously difficult great-grandson refused to grant copyright clearance, in the wake of a blazing dispute over royalties). In addition to Ridley Scott's feature length director's commentary, it's good to see that these scenes have finally been re-instated for this release. Probably the most noteworthy of additional sequences is that in which Seann William Scott and Simon Callow (in a cameo appearance that was previously excised from the film) perform the opening of act III in its original, unpolluted form. Former RSC child-star Scott's enunciation is laced with an honest air of simplicity, that bears reasonable comparison with the manner of Olivier in his heyday (although theatrical purists may object to the background distraction of Ashton Kitchener, as he grapples to retrieve a bag of dope from the 'wrong end' of a chimpanzee- with hilarious consequences!!!).

3.0 out of 5 stars Dude Where's my Car?, 9 Mar 2005
By Rich Milligan (Thatcham, Berkshire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
A film like this is always going to polarise opinion and it's no surprise seeing other reviewers either 5 star it or absolutely slam it. The humour is childish, immature, without subtlety and generally mindless and yet you can't help but like and be captivated by the heroes of the story.

So why have I given it three stars then? Well putting aside any puerile qualities the film has, it does contain some really funny moments. The scene at the Chinese drive through, the bubble-wrap space suits, the imprisoned guy, the guy who lives in the closet etc etc these are all genuinely funny moments and I would challenge the film's strongest critics to struggle not to raise a smile.

On the other hand such a silly film can only annoy after a while and I did find my mind wandering during some of the slacker moments. Luckily with a plot so loose and undefined it isn't hard to regain your place in the storyline. The constant catchphrase driven dialogue can loose its novelty after a while also. There's only so many "sweets", "dudes" and "shibbys" one can take!

There's been a lot of comparison to American Pie and Road Trip but apart from the fact all three star Seann William Scott I do think they are different films. Both American Pie and Road Trip feature a certain "gross-ness" to their humour and in comparison this film is rather innocent. There's not a hint of bad language throughout and any sexy scenes are very tame.

Definitely a film for the less serious moments, but even then just sit back and enjoy the fun and don't think too hard.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculously Funny!, 6 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This film will not appeal to people with sensible tastes, it is definitely a film for people who enjoyed the likes of American Pie & Road Trip. The story is based on two guys getting absolutely wasted one night and, when they awake, they seem to have misplaced their car! On their search they encounter many strange people who they apparently met the previous but they are cursed with not remebering a single thing. It is an amazing film with many hilarious moments (although highly stupid), and a definite must see. Although the DVD does not have any extras or special features, the film itself makes it worth while.

Alec ,Edinburgh
