GamerTab That was an excellent one.

SunnyHello Nice effects though.

GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious

Console best movie i've ever seen.

solidgameboy12-1 I think over a thousand years from now, the people of that time will look back at the history of spoof films, we will find an overabundance of parody films from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2009, and perhaps most of humanity will look at that decade as the poorest excuses for Parody films.However, in the event that the internet still exists in the future, I hope some people find this review to help them sift through the mountains of waste in the Spoof film genre, and one of those rare few movies would be "The Comebacks".The Comebacks stars David Koechner (Perhaps most remembered from Anchorman) as Coach Lambeau Fields, a man whose history of poor coaching have earned him the title of "Worst Coach", causing some of the major blunders in sports history (I'm glad Bill Buckner wasn't spared from a joke). After years of failure, an old coach buddy, Freddie Wiseman (Played by none other than Carl Weathers) tells him of a sports team in desperate need of a coach.Well, it wouldn't be a movie without this plot point being fulfilled, now would it? Coach Fields takes up the team for hopefully his first real chance at coaching a winning team. Everything after this becomes parody fodder shortly thereafter.With Parody films, it is hard to judge the movie, considering how much of the parodies and jokes you end up giving away in the review. This movie suffers from that, so I'll do the best I can from here.The movie plays on a lot of tried and true clichés from sports movies, some in situation (An oddly disturbing yet hilarious scene from a character Aceel Tare, whose name gets mispronounced as ACL Tear, provides the "Best player getting injured" Cliché), or in reference (A football team is called "Friday Night Lights") and for the most part, it becomes hit and miss.However, the problem with most parody films is simply this: Some gags are drawn out to death. One gag in the movie is that a team is called "The Trojans", and they reference Condoms (Product Placement at its finest) and Coach Fields then makes a remark obviously making sex talk about the team. The joke was the team and its name, no need to make intercourse jokes after, it becomes 15 seconds too long and boring, then its called a bad joke.There is also a lot of filler in this movie, none to make the story work, just to make it nearly an hour and a half so you felt like you watched a movie and not an episode of MadTV starring the actors who couldn't cut it.However, despite all its negatives, it does have its funny parts, the problem is that they aren't fast enough or strong enough to work. This movie would have worked at an hour, just by cutting out all the filler, all the overstretched jokes and probably a minute and a half of the musical number (Oh, I didn't mention the cast sings "Don't Stop Believin" by Journey because it's a staple of sport films, or that the writers ran out of ideas).Is it funnier than most parody movies? Yes. Is it the greatest parody movie? Not by a long shot. Watch it on TV. It doesn't hurt like "Meet The Spartans" or "Epic Movie" (Which both rank a "1" and "3" from me, respectively) but there could have been a lot worse about it.5/10

MatthewLong23 There was nothing remotely funny about this movie. It makes fun of various sports movies and clichés but nothing about it is remotely funny. Most of the movies they parody doesn't even fit in with the film and are really only their so they can be in it. Non The main actor was well cast in it but that's really the only good thing about this film. Also the various cameos in it were kind of cool to see but i have no idea why they would waste their time being in this piece of garbage. Thank goodness I only spent $4 on it as this is not something worth spending money on. ONly watch if you have absolutely nothing to do or just want to waste an hour and 30 minutes.

Lilith Hexus Do all spoof films require pure stupidity and a lack of ANY sort of intelligence whatsoever to the humour? Is there even just a single genuinely FUNNY parody film anymore? All I see are zero-quality films that look like a couple stoned high school students got bored one day with a video camera. These movies are not funny, they're not clever, they're not entertaining, they're just useless in every conceivable way.The Comebacks was a movie that tried to hide its hideous level of trash by not calling itself "Sports Movie". It's the same thing, though. There are a few different writers for these films, the Wayans did some, Freidberg and Seltzer did some others, and I'm sure there's another pair. I can't even tell the difference in direction or humour to be honest, it all seems like the same people wrote and directed them. I can't tell if the Comebacks was done by the people who did Scary Movie or the guys who did Epic Movie, or someone else, it's just the same jokes from all the others.If you have ANY shred of taste or value for humour, don't see this movie. If you have self-worth, don't bother seeing it. If you have ANY respect for film making, don't even consider watching it. Don't see it in any broke down, derelict theatre that may still carry it, don't rent it, don't order it on Netflix or Pay-Per-View, don't Redbox it, and don't even watch it for free on OD. Avoid it like the plague.The only conceivable reasons I can see to watch this film are as follows.A. Masochism. If you like torturing yourself, there's very few better ways. B. Seeing a prime example of why to avoid ANYTHING that says "Fox Atomic". C. You're being paid considerably high amounts of cash.I really would not watch the entire thing if someone offered me $100 to do it. It's just mindless, mental collapsing torment.You might as well watch Zohan.

niceguy_1981 When I first saw the previews for this movie on TV I thought that this could be a funny movie. I was wrong. All though I am not totally against movies that make fun of others. Some are actually funny such as the first scary movie. This was one of many that have been made as of late that are not. The humor in this film was anything but funny and was rather dull.I feel the one of the biggest problems is that they poked fun at to many movies such as Varsity Blues, Friday Night Lights, Stick it, etc. And if you are anything like me you try to pick out each movie instead of paying attention to whats going on in this one. Even the adult humor in this movie was dry. Do yourself a favor and save you money and time and rent don't rent this movie
