Doesn't push the limits of taste so much as the limits of how bad a movie can be.

In a sense, this is a horror film, worse than anything Andy Kaufman could dream up, in which Green tries to outgross himself.

Watch this only if you'd like to see Green lick the exposed bone of his best friend.

Watching Freddy Got Fingered is like body-surfing through raw sewage.

Freddy Got Fingered is pure masturbation, and I'm sorry to say I mean that both literally and figuratively.

As a movie, it's a piece of garbage, but when considered as a series of gags, many of which are tasteless and tired but an equal number are inspired, it's worth seeing.

If I wanted to watch a muddled, clunky, wannabe-clever comedy, I'd wait for the next Saturday Night Live atrocity to come out.

Fearless and culturally resonant...a Dadaistic sendup of knee-jerk moralism and teen comedies in general.

One of the most unappreciated movies of the decade, Tom Green directs one of the silliest movies of 2001. With scenes that include running around in deer skin to scuba diving in the shower, this is one of the best comedies in my movie list. The worst part of about it was that only people who appreciates poop jokes will find this remotely amusing

I'm not going to lie this movie and tom green well...he is funny yes and same goes for the film but still I admit its very underrated and he really does make you laugh none stop with that hole backwards man thing and how he is really just always pissing off his dad and accuses him of molesting Freddy. Well dumb humor
