It is sort of a wierd movie because I did not laugh that much watching it, but the more I thought about it the funnier I thought it was, just because all of the characters are so retarded. I kind of want to watch it again. Although the uncle creeps me out.

It's all about Uncle Rico....and Rex from Rex Kwan Do!

I'm with the consensus, weird movie, had it's funny moments and dumb ones...

But I like it's originality, I think that's what separates it from all the boring, mainstream movies...

This movie rocks because of this! All the new movies are so lame and unoriginal. I love this movie!

The point of the movie is that they're all a harmless bunch, trying to find a niche in this world. Uncle Rico is stuck in the 80s, failed at football and is trying to make a buck. Although selling breast augmentations to young girls is pretty sick (in a bad way), he doesn't cross the child molester line, which you ALMOST thinks he would.

No, they're not retarded, they're just normal people. What makes it funny is that they're a bit off center from say, my life (I don't own a llama nor date a black girl over the internet, but that's what they must do in Idaho :-D)

Great movie. I mean, for me, I definitely could relate to the characters, at least in certain ways.
