Green's ever-upped ante of shock speaks of a desperation that borders on mental illness.

A vomitorium consisting of 93 minutes of Tom Green doing things that a geek in a carnival sideshow would turn down.

Was this the first movie in motion picture history to bypass the 'executive screenings'?

Dull, insipid, horrific, uninspired, painful, ill-conceived, amateurish, embarrassing, foolish, moronic. These are the only printable words I can think of.

If ever a movie testified to the utter creative bankruptcy of the Hollywood film industry, it is the abomination known as Freddy Got Fingered.

Green ... is perhaps the only person on earth who could make a moviegoer actually nostalgic for the subtle intellectual brilliance of Pauly Shore.

"This picture is so bad that you shouldn't even walk down the street where it's playing in case it starts to rain and you're tempted to go inside and seek shelter."

Tom Green cowrites, directs and stars in what is essentially Tom Green's primal scream. So, if Tom Green screams in an empty theater, does he make a sound?

Freddy Got Fingered makes Dude, Where's My Car? look like an Oscar contender.

You can see Green sweating for effect, ratcheting up the cruel jokes just to keep his street cred as a comic provocateur.

I'm not easily offended, but its nonstop assault of crude and sub-cretinous humor moved me to annoyance, then profound boredom.
