| Pros |
Great Acting, Freakin' Awesome Quotes, Great inside jokes about rural life in the Western U.S. |
| Cons |
No plot (but for me this was also something of a pro) |
| Bottom Line |
If you watch Napoleon Dynamite for its great lines and dry humor, but not for its plot or drama, you will have a great time. |

| Pros |
The whole cast (except Haylie Duff) |
| Cons |
Haylie Duff |
| Bottom Line |
I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to find their inner geek. |

| Pros |
Great humor for anyone who's ever felt like a loser. |
| Cons |
There is no in between, you either love it or hate it. |
| Bottom Line |
This film still cracks me up every time. Watch it, if you like the first 15 minutes you'll love it and if not you might as well turn it off. |

| Pros |
acting, story, comic moments |
| Cons |
comedy won't be to everyone's liking |
| Bottom Line |
A different sort of film that gained cult status for a reason. It's not for everyone, but if you get the humor, you'll enjoy it. |

| Pros |
Creative opening credits, soundtrack |
| Cons |
slow, sloppy, unfunny, tries too hard to be hip |
| Bottom Line |
Boring and not funny. If you want a truly hilarious and outstanding comedy about some hicks, do yourself a favor and see Raising Arizona instead. |
