A delightful, winning tribute to those annual kudos given to people who died from sheer stupidity, thereby improving the gene pool.

If writer/director Finn Taylor could have made up his mind about the movie he was making, it would have held together better.
09/09/07
The humor dissipates as we watch one weird death after another.

Top CriticJust a voyeuristic excuse to watch people die in different ways.
08/27/07
Writer/ director Finn Taylor's problem is that he wrote a painfully weak script, mostly wasting both acting talent and funny stories in the process.
08/09/07
tries so very hard but just doesn't manage to be very funny
08/06/07
Will probably deserve a Darwin Award itself after dying quietly at the box office and thus strengthening the art of filmmaking in general.

While the film has some funky flaws, it’s a terrific satire and is downright hilarious.

Taylor and his friends seem to be having a great time but could have let the audience in on the joke.

Top CriticIt's not the diversion from source material that bothers me; it's the way in which the diversions are bland, listless, annoyingly familiar, and patently unengaging.
01/30/06
Sports too many formulaic weaknesses of mainstream laffers while straining for an indie cred that hitherto came naturally to writer-director Finn Taylor.
