Product Description

Goofball comedy starring Ben Stiller and Jack Black as Tim Dingman and Nick Vanderpark: best friends, next-door neighbours and co-workers at a sandpaper factory. However, when Nick (Black) comes up with a seemingly hare-brained get-rich-quick idea for a cleaning product, 'Vapoorizer', that makes dog poo disappear into thin air, he strikes gold - and quickly becomes wealthy beyond his wildest dreams. Tim finds this new situation very hard to take, and when he meets eccentric drifter J-Man (Christopher Walken) at a bar, he is given some not-so-friendly advice about how to get even. Rachel Weisz co-stars as Tim's long-suffering wife.

3.0 out of 5 stars Va-poo-rise! - Good Idea For Plot Basis 3 Sep 2005
Format:DVD
Jack Black and Ben Stiller team up in this one! Best friends who everyday drive to the same job in the same car. Until one of them gets an idea that turns them into a millionaire! Now the green eyed monster has risen and what lies in it's wake is betrayal lies and dead horses!

It's a good movie and funny in a lot of places. Black and Stiller make a great team Jack Black is his usual crazy self and Stiller is his mumbly awkward hillarious guy! Also in the film are Christopher Walken and Rachel Wiesz who in turn are extremely funny!

4.0 out of 5 stars Do you ever watch your hand !? 22 Feb 2005
By Jekyll
Format:DVD
I must admit, i didnt think this was one of Ben Stiller better films. Jack Black was definately the funniest character in the movie. One of the scenes that sticks to mind is when Jack & Ben are driving home from work and Jack starts talking about how his hand didnt seem to be a part of him the whole day. His hand kept sitting next to him, following him around everywhere like a mutant sidekick...this had me in stitches..but maybe thats just me. View it and see what you think. Its funny and lighthearted.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as bad as 'they' say 7 Jan 2005
Format:DVD
I saw this movie on a flight a few months ago. It kept me amused enough to watch the whole film (a rarity on a plane). Ben Stiller and Jack Black fans will enjoy this equally - both are on their usual form - funny without being too offensive. It was slated in the press but for anybody who likes a good, if a little unusual, comedy this is well worth checking out.

3.0 out of 5 stars Another Stiller flop (SPOILERS)
Not as bad as Zoolander, not as good as Meet the Parents.
In fact, Stiller isn't even the best actor in this film. Read more
