    Description of The Benchwarmers:
    Credit The Benchwarmers for achieving the impossible: It makes the 2005 remake of The Bad News Bears look like a masterpiece. They're essentially the same film, with the same lowbrow PG-13 humor (mostly involving bodily functions, broad slapstick, little people, nerds, geeks, and nose-picking), but this baseball comedy earns a few brownie points for its heart-warming message about including non-athletic kids (i.e. "benchwarmers") in Little League baseball, if only to boost their confidence and give them a moment of ball-field glory. It's a pleasant sentiment intended to encourage under-achievers to feel good about themselves, and that makes this loose-and-goofy vehicle for Rob Schneider, David Spade, and Napoleon Dynamite's Jon Heder an easygoing time-killer. Parents with good taste should be warned that his movie has no taste at all (it's hopelessly mired in the swamp of fart jokes and juvenile sight-gags), and is there really a need for mild profanity in a movie like this? That said, there are a few laughs in the efforts of Schneider and his ultra-nerdy pals as they form a team of rejects and go to bat against an enemy squad of current and former school-bullies, led by former late-night talk-show host Craig Kilborn. In addition to Schneider and Spade, Saturday Night Live alumni Jon Lovitz and Tim Meadows show up for an easy paycheck, and director Dennis Dugan handles the dumb-and-dumber shtick as if he were on vacation, sipping margaritas and shamelessly going for the easy laughs. If that's what you're looking for, you've come to the right place.--Jeff Shannon

    The Benchwarmers Reviews:
    so-so 1 Star Review
    2008-07-20 - The movie could have been more family friendly minus the "potty humor". Also I thought the negative depiction of the Dominican ballplayer in the film was culturally insensitive to the Dominican people.

    Funny 5 Star Review

    The Benchwarmers 5 Star Review
    2008-06-11 - The Benchwarmers, written and directed by Adam Sandler, is a really good and funny movie that I saw lately. The movie is about three men that never got to play baseball on a team because they were bullied as kids. Then one day they see a bunch of kids being bullied for playing baseball and decide to make a team of there own to stand up to the bullies. This movie is filled with hilarious humor but it also has a great lesson behind it. My interpretation of the message is that everybody should be treated as equals no matter what they wear, how athletic they are, what they do, or even if they spit when they speak. I really enjoyed this movie and I am pretty sure that whoever sees it will have a hard time not laughing at least five times.

    Funny Movie! 4 Star Review
    2008-01-03 - I love this movie and we have it on DVD, but I like to buy a few of my favorites to watch on the PSP. So if you like comedy, watch this...
