Division III: Football's Finest

The best character is obviously the coach. The director/scripter did not embrace the full absurd humor of «The comebacks» so you laugh sometimes but it is not that funny, although not inherently bad. If you liked that one try The Comebacks (2007) or Balls Out: Gary the Tennis Coach (2009) . Those ones are better than this one.

When it comes to cult movies, this one stands out the most. This low-budget longest yard/ american pie combination will leave audiences laughing the whole time. From the unforgettable characters, to the unforgettable punch lines; this movie is easy to fall in love with. It is not for the faint of hearted, however, and the jokes are not suitable for the easily offended. The movie is an underrated gem with a combination of different types of characters that flow together into this comedic melting pot. With the crazy antics of the head coach, that cannot be described as outdated because his behavior would have never been acceptable, combined with the assistant coach who clearly tries too hard to fit into the football coach stereotype; this movie is pure comedy. There is also a minor love story between the main character (the only two normal people in the entire movie) and a girl who doesn't date football players. I would recommend this movie to anybody who enjoys raunchy foul comedy.

There's no debate, this movie is insanely stupid. But that's what makes it hilarious. Before watching, you know what you're getting into, so why watch if this is not your style of comedy? Stupid humor is taking the world by storm, and this movie is a testament to how funny it can be. No need to think about it, just watch and laugh. This type of movie is meant to entertain, and to entertain only. There is no need to include underlying themes and messages, that is far beyond the scope of a movie like this. And frankly, I don't want all my movies to have some deeper meaning. Sometimes I just want to kick back, relax, and crack up at a funny movie without thinking about it. When I do, this movie is my movie of choice. Don't miss out on this fun-filled and absurdly hilarious comedy!

When i attempt to review a movie, i often feel it's necessary to observe my (at the moment) state of mind. It was a 'do nothing' Sunday afternoon, and i was too lazy to mow the yard. My run-in with this coin flipper was purely by accident, but after 20 min or so, i warmed up to the idea that i was too lazy to locate the missing remote. I was somewhat surprised that i would finish the entire 1:39. I would suggest a few warm-up beers before giving this film your undivided attention, because even by "Andy Dick" standards, his character is hard to watch. Don't expect too much, and you might throw a chuckle. Doesn't surprise me that it took only 3 weeks to make this movie, so the production cost was an obvious issue. How's about if i just raise my thumb slightly for this non-Oscar winning reel.

The pacing of this film is just brilliant and I have to say the editors are probably just as much to thank as the writers, actors or directors. Perhaps even more so. Andy Dick and Greg Fitzsimmons shine as always but you can sorta tell they were allowed to go off-script as much as they wanted. Someone in the editing room knew exactly when to cut the scenes without letting things drag out. I'm a little shocked the ratings here on IMDb aren't a tad higher. I really enjoyed this film and I'm not one to watch sports related films in general. In my opinion it's a laugh-a-minute riot. Juvenile? Yes, but that's what I was expecting from a comedy centered around college football.

This review contains a spoiler. This movie was very funny. It had me lol throughout the movie. I cannot think of too many sport films that are funny like "Division III: Football's Finest." I can definitely see myself watching this movie again. The coach is funny and the players are terrified of his tactics to coach the team. The coach is crazy, but what other choice does the Division 3 school have. The schools football program is in jeopardy, so they either go big or lose the media attention that the school needs to be successful. The movie seems to be centered around comedy, but I can see how it also focuses on the main idea for the team to win many important games. He needed help and he eventually got it through a determined defensive or offensive coordinator.
