Synopsis: Self-made celebrity and outlaw of gross-out comedy, Tom Green (of MTV's TOM GREEN SHOW) makes the leap to the big screen with the outrageous semi-autobiographical FREDDY GOT FINGERED. Starring as... Self-made celebrity and outlaw of gross-out comedy, Tom Green (of MTV's TOM GREEN SHOW) makes the leap to the big screen with the outrageous semi-autobiographical FREDDY GOT FINGERED. Starring as Gord Brody, a slacker fast-approaching 30, yet still living in his father's basement, Green is his usual obtusely hilarious, polymorphously perverse self. Physical comedy ascends to the realm of extreme performance art as Brody's unachievable lifelong dream to become an animator causes him to clash with his hardened father (played by the steely and equally funny Rip Torn.) A furtive love affair with a wheelchair-bound rocket scientist and the disturbing hijinks of a troublesome younger brother named Freddy form the core of the sublimely stupid plot that serves mainly as a platform from which Green launches his incredible and often irrational comedic fare. Testing the limits of comedy, Green's deceptively moronic film does, at times, achieve a level of visual and conceptual cleverness, crafting ironic and primordial images from jokes on human folly.

Reviews for Freddy Got Fingered
This wasn't a 'movie' after all, but rather just some funny sketches that Tom Green thought would be humorous to incorporate into a motion picture.
You can see Green sweating for effect, ratcheting up the cruel jokes just to keep his street cred as a comic provocateur.
A pathetic, unparalleled abomination. Ishtar, come back. All is forgiven.
I don't think Green is too far off from Jim Carrey's work on In Living Colour.
Of course he's gross, vile, and pitiful; yet, somehow repulsively endearing.
