The Jerk (Fotonovel) Reviews: Its all I need  2009-11-17 - That's all I need is this video. That's all I need, is this video and these phone books, that's all I need.
DVD- The Jerk  2009-10-25 - I had the tape - and wanted a more permanent copy!
Love it !
My story? I was born a poor HD DVD.....  2009-08-09 - Huh? I am not a bum. I'm a jerk. I once had wealth, power, and the love of a beautiful woman. Now I only have two things: my friends and... uh... my thermos. Huh? My story? Okay. It was never easy for me. I was born a poor HD DVD.....
The HD DVD version of The Jerk is a good update over the DVD since it's widescreen and has a better than average soundtrack of Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1, but really my only complaint is there were only 4 really sucky special features which were all in standard def. So, that's why it only got 4 stars.
Otherwise I watched it for all the comedy, and trust me you will not be disappointed unless you are so unhumorous like my grandma.
The Bottom Line - If you want to have a good laugh get this movie!
Was this ever funny?  2009-06-22 - I hadn't seen this since my early teens; the year that it was released 30 years ago. I suppose that I hadn't thought to watch it again since then. But, I now know why: I rented it earlier this week with my 15 yr. old son, as we were trying to pick out a flick that might entertain. My pick, my fault: this movie is so over abundantly unfunny that I felt like I had betrayed my son. Thank gawd he's a gracious human being.
Was this movie's humor really legitimate at some time; is it still? Was it necessary to release a 26th anniversary edition? Or, was that out of the studio's feeling of some "loyal obligation"? Seriously, Fans: watch it at least everyday for a couple of weeks and then honestly ask yourself whether this comedy wasn't taking advantage the movie viewing public during Steve Martin's hey-days, rather than putting out legitimate comedy. I can't remember a time that his movies ever caused me to laugh. I have a vague memory that `Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid' may have... but, I don't wanna chance it. He was great in 'The Spanish Prisoner', however, which is a thriller/drama. Check that one out instead.
Never Got It  2009-04-22 - . . i ordered this movie over a month ago and still never recieved it. .
