Movie Info

In this Borat meets Jackass shockumentary, five little people and five mascots battle for one million dollars through 30 ridiculous competitions, including how many insults it takes to get punched in a bar, who can drink a gallon of milk the fastest and who can wrestle a live alligator. Gary Coleman, leading the ''Littles'' as himself, is a comedic freight train (or train wreck) as he gets into actual fist fights with mascots, coaches and even NBA star Scottie Pippen. Look forward to tear-inducing laughter when drunken and belligerent mascots take on a competitive and determined group of little people.

It has neither the comic invention of Borat nor the genuine daredevil likability of the Jackass crew. Just depressing.

The biggest problem with this movie is its caustic bad temper, which while funny, bummed me out.

A gross-out comedy to make the Jackass posse look like clergyman. If only it was actually funny.

Barrel-scraping non-PC laughs are all this crude and increasingly tedious mockumentary has to offer.

Some films are good, some are bad. Some are like watching the end of civilisation in slow motion.

The unbearable and atrocious Midgets vs. Mascots can now be included in that select group of films that makes prostate exams seem appealing.

Yes, it was really dumb. No, I probably wouldn't watch it again. But were there some funny (or really gross) parts along the way - absolutely!

Not a documentary, but you see that straight away, they dontv try disguising it. its a stupid concept, and comes off as a crappy jackass, but maybe more vulgar, the midgets thing i see but taking on mascots, basically people dressed up in costumes never pays off for me. although seeing that guy from diferent strokes getting involved was a interesting idea.

Midgets Vs Mascots is one of the more stranger comedies ive seen in awhile when a deceased mascot turned porn mogul dies the only way for his son to get his share of the money left to him is to make up teams one of midgets and one of mascots him having to coach the midgets to victory of course as with any comedy things dont always go as planned for either team but watching them battle each other in different events does have its funny moments and gary coleman does have a very shocking scene that has to be seen to believed but as with any movie like this the laughs do tend to get old fast so watch at your own risk!

Fun to watch even though youll probably lose some brain cells while viewing.I cant believe the shower scene with Gary Coleman. (MY EYES!!!) You just have to see that for yourself
