Strange Wilderness Audience Reviews

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Hugo Grayling My friends and I have watched this film on countless occasions, gathered around a TV laughing our cares away. I can not exaggerate the impact this film has had on my development as a person and a father. My favourite character is Bill Whitaker, a man who resembles someone we all know and cherish. The story of his struggle with his alcoholism, and his sexuality is both painful and inspiring for the viewer. The comedic value of Johan Hill is inspired, as he replicates the accent and mannerisms of the average Texan perfectly. Peter Dante is another star of the film for me and many others I am sure, his shark attack scene is filmed and acted with ultimate precision. I would know as I have seen a shark attack once, on a cruse holiday in south Africa. A big shark came and ate one of the natives in one bite. The shark made it away with no charge, scott free, highlighting the problems South Africa has with its police and judiciary system. A deeply troubled country that really needs invading and colonising. All in all this is a tale of woe and joy as well as being, possibly one of the greatest films ever created.
maartenrijger I became a member of IMDb because the rating for Strange Wilderniss is just way to low! This was the best movie I had seen all year! The movie is so funny.. it's so stupid but so great! Especially the part about the bears... watch it so i don't have to spoil it. If you like crazy humor.. watch it.. if you don't like this movie at all.. to my opinion you don't have humor yourself!It's clear what the movie is about.. what makes it funny is funny actors.. great things they say about the animals.. you can't take anything serious!I am going to search for more movies with these actors.. like Jack Black movies.. great.. hilarious!
TheExpatriate700 Strange Wilderness is a good, if not particularly memorable, stoner comedy revolving around a young slacker (Steve Zahn) who inherits a wildlife television show from his father. Unfortunately, he and his stoner buddies manage to get the show canceled, and their only hope is to get footage of Bigfoot down in Ecuador.Sound stupid? Well, it is, but it still manages to get a lot of laughs, even if they are not particularly original. Some of the highlights, such as a dentally challenged shark, are well known from YouTube, but there are still plenty of laughs to be had, including a scene involving a decidedly ferocious turkey. The whole thing is held together by Steve Zahn, whose charisma makes even many of the lamer jokes funny.The film definitely has flaws. Many of the jokes, particularly in the first half, fall flat, and Jonah Hill does little with his character other than act stoned. Furthermore, many of the jokes are easy to predict in advance. Still, it's a great comedy for a boring afternoon.
forrestwrs Strange Wilderness is fantastic for the fact that it is completely unfunny. I mean, I never laughed once during this movie. It's incredible. Not once. It tried, I'll give it that much. It certainly tried. Throughout the entire movie, though, you had to find the joke. Either that, or they would play a joke (that didn't make us laugh the first time) about 4 times over in succession (didn't they ever hear about the rule of 3 in comedy?). Totally unfunny. I never laughed once during this movie. Which amazes me. I usually laugh at *something* during a terribly done comedy (though more often than not it's at how stupid the movie is). I mean, that's pretty much it, really. For the most part it was just mediocre, but what makes it god-awful is the fact that succeeds at making the audience laugh 0% of the time.2/10
