Kangaroo Jack 2003

Kangaroo Jack

Critics Consensus

The humor is gratingly dumb, and Kangaroo Jack contains too much violence and sexual innuendo for a family movie.

Audience Reviews for Kangaroo Jack

  • Mar 17, 2013
    What a waste of time. Too dumb, too nonsense, too strong for a family entertaining picture, but probably in some decades this horrible thing could be rediscovery by others genarations and receive the title of a classic 'so bad that's good' cult following.

    Pretty funny, Deserved way more credit, Ok it was very silly but it was different and to this day it still makes me laugh plus the kids will love it even if there's little bits that will be abit strong for some up tight parents.

    Why do people make these films??? Why???

    It has a few moments of great hilarity and Anderson in the supporting role is hilarious but the acting of everyone else is bad and it completely misses it's target audience. Kangaroo Jack is one of those stupid movies that try to suck it up to the parents by feeding them adult humour, but it's too gross for a movie like this. Or is it?
