David Zucker directs Trey Parker, Matt Stone and Yasmine Bleeth in this sports comedy where two losers invent a dumb sport that takes the world (America) by storm.

Being nasty is the goal. Seemingly advertised on the back of every comic book I bought in the late Nineties. Idiotic and charmless. South Park creators Parker and Stone were right to stick to animating, they ain’t got much onscreen like-ability. The movie bats about 1 actual laugh per a hundred jokes. I’m not sure if this is intentionally spoofing the SNL movie vehicle formula? Cleaves pretty close, but to pastiche an already self aware comedy model… pointless.
