FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

penguin This is funny stuff. Not a smutty joke to be had and it is genuinely funny. I wish they had made more episodes. The voiceover from Paul Gross only makes it even funnier. The women aren't love interests and the guys aren't obsessed with chasing women. Occasionally there is some curling too!

Toby Pelletier I didn't like this show (it would appear most people certainly did not like it) but worse than that I didn't even understand it. I still can't figure out why this show was made... how did this happen?Men with Brooms was a harmless, not very good but still much better than this TV version, movie. That movie came out in 2001 or 2002 and did OK for a Canadian film. By that I mean it actually got released in theatres and some ho-hum reviews and word of mouth but overall didn't make much at the box office and probably lost money. Nobody raved about it and it's not like people were still talking about it months let alone years later.So why make a TV version almost a decade later? Especially when you don't even have the good, talented, relatively famous cast they had in the movie? A bunch of no name actors doing a watered down, stretched out, poorly written imitation of a riddled with plot holes movie than wasn't even successful when it first came out like 9 years before. How could they be surprised it flopped? Maybe a movie sequel would have made more sense.Anyway hopefully they don't repeat the same mistake again any time soon. Avoid this show like the plague because it's not even funny, and the movie's not very good either so not worth watching unless you're a huge Paul Gross or Leslie Nielsen fan.

Charles Carmichael Sorry, I've got to disagree, this is far and away the best Canadian comedy on network TV today - way better than Dan for Mayor or Hiccups *shudder*! It's fresh and amusingly funny in its portrayal of small-town Canada - which is not a lame excuse for anything, but rather a genuine pulse on the heartland. I found it neither elitist nor dumbed down, but relatably funny! By touching on social trends like vegetarianism, they're using comedy and comedic ignorance to open up public discourse and understanding - not mockery. Also, the show invites characters of different races into the fray without defining those characters by their race which is so refreshing! Every character is a character, and entertaining ones too, not playing up racial difference for cheap laughs! The cast does a solid job overall and the lead, Brendan Gall, has great comic timing. He's got a definite Seth Rogen vibe going' on. And I'm totally digging Paul Gross' narration. It improves the show much in the same way Ron Howard's did for Arrested Development. The self-conscious, self-referential asides to the audience play for some of the show's best laughs! Oh, and for the record, Paul Gross hasn't lost a step haha Love that guy!

can_ace_ian The only thing I can say to those reading this or checking up on this series. Avoid this show like the plague and let it die out fast. This show is just sad and bad on all levels. Paul Gross does nothing but put out garbage now. Sad, cause I used to be such a big fan. The acting is low level, the voice over during the episodes are better left out as it seems to only tell me what I already am aware of making its viewers just feel dumber than they already do for having tuned in. The vegetarian jokes are very tiresome as people as a society have grown used to the fact of this fast growing lifestyle some (not me) choose. Having the Rocko Jocko meatatarian making it "gay" not in so many words is insensitive and just immature on the level lower than that of an ignorant high schooler. I found the show to have racist undertones as well as sexist ones, which when delivered tastefully could be funny, sure. But this is something they fail at miserably, making their characters look like ignorant, backwood rednecks instead. Don't give me that small-town mentality stuff either, it's a lame excuse for stupid, embarrassing behavior.
