It would take far better writing than Kattan, Ferrell and Steve Koren can muster to make it less than an ordeal.

An amiable, if flyweight, diversion.

Not exactly highbrow stuff, but who ever said a comedy needed to be highbrow to enjoy?

Shun this witless showcase for the Saturday Night Live double act of Ferrell and Kattan.

Depois de um tempo, parei de prestar atenção na história (hein?) e me concentrei na boa trilha sonora. Além disso, o filme é curto o bastante para não se tornar intolerável.

One thin joke stretched over 80-some tiring minutes.

Low-impact fun for the indiscriminate viewer.

making a skit 30 times as long does not necessarily mean you've made it 30 times as funny; despite scattered laughs 'Roxbury' feels overextended...

Palo Alto Weekly

The Butabi brothers are uber-losers, and therein lies the joke. Between spoofs on nightclubs, personal trainers and hitting on hotties, the brothers bob their heads to the beat and make complete fools of themselves.

| Original Score: 2/4

Film Quips Online

Though the sketches featuring the two head-bopping losers have sometimes been hysterical on the show, the premise just doesn't translate to a feature film.

Its forced slapstick egregiously mugs the audience for laughs.

It contains more than a few laughs, and Ferrell and Shannon are comedic actors destined for greatness.

They're still side-splitting funny more often than not.

The rest of the film is on autopilot, with comic material that's spread thinner than the lone brain cell the Butabis share.

Audiences are likely to be as repelled by this lame & lamer combo as their would-be dance partners, because underneath their shallow and clueless veneers is just more shallowness and cluelessness.
