A group of researchers for a pharmaceutical company release Gleemonex, a drug that brings people's happiest memory to the surface and cures depression. All is right in the world, at least until the drug is discovered to have some side effects down the road. The Kids in the Hall had a great show, and it's no surprise they were able to make a great movie. With a very limited cast, they play dozens of parts and keep the humor rolling from the very beginning. If there's a group that is the spiritual successor to Monty Python, it is probably KITH. Some of the best jokes are just throw-aways: a cop that dreams about sex with toast, a therapist who doesn't speak German, and a scientist who develops a drug that gives ex-girlfriends worms. One of the running jokes throughout the film is a man who is obviously gay but is unable to admit it. He is consistently funny, even after he comes out in the middle of a musical scene. Some people allegedly thought that including Cancer Boy was insensitive and not funny in the slightest. I disagree. If it's okay to make fun of depression and homosexuals, I think cancer should be perfectly acceptable. I may not be easily offended, but I think this was fine. A couple other things made this film great: a great soundtrack with bands like They Might Be Giants and The Odds. One of the earliest film appearances of Selma Blair. Seriously, the only way you would not find this funny is if you had a stick up your butt or you were a flipper baby.

I was disappointed. I expected it to be a lot funnier. The show always has a wide variety of sketches and jokes, the movie did not. The show is always outrageous, the movie was not. It was actually almost tame compared to the tv show. Yeah, it was more explicit, but at no point during the movie did my jaw drop, much like it does when I watch the show. The scenes at the rock show were too long and wholly unfunny. Good things: The scenes with the pharmy mogul and his yes man were very funny, I guess the kids poke fun at corporate life best (in the movie). Bad: Usually the kids come up with great 'gay' humor. the gay jokes and the crossdressing were rather run of the mill and not spectacular. nothing new. No scott thompson monologues. overall: rent it if you're REALLY bored and/or a HUGE fan.

A 1 because there's no way I can rate this a minus 10. Though alive I was figuratively turning over in my grave every time someone likened this 'thing' to a Monty Python show or movie. The Python writers/performers were all brilliant and could skewer society and culture either with a broadsword or a stiletto. These dopes, less talented than Moe, Larry and Curly, can be summed up with one word and that word is "unsubtle". If there was a god of comedy, bolts of lighting would fry the people for uttering the heresy of comparing them to Python. Anything this amateurish and unfunny makes me either reach for my pistol, walk rapidly to the exit or push the off button on the remote in an excessively heavy manner. (Actually I disliked this movie so much I wanted to do all three things simultaneously.) 'Kids' is the absolute bottom of the comedic barrel and could be the worst comedy in motion picture history (maybe there is a god after all because some Force has intervened and determined that they will never make another movie and so thank you Jesus, thank you Muhammed, thank you Vishnu, thank you Buddha!).

The Kids in the Hall tv show has to be the funniest sketch comedy show of all time. You'd think they could have made a funny movie, right? Well they didn't succeed in this viewer's opinion. Don't get me wrong, this film had some very funny moments (Cancer Boy, anyone). Although as a whole this movie just kind of drifts along. If you want to see a sketch comedy troupe do cinema justice, I have to recommend Life Of Brian, The Holy Grail and even Wayne's World over this comedy. The fact that there are no plans to make another Kids In the Hall movie should speak volumes about how this movie succeeded.

This is one of the worst films ever to grace the screen. If ever there is justification that TV series don't translate well to movies then this is it. I would suggest a colonic irrigation would be much more enjoyable than this waste of space, and to think Brendan Fraser is associated with it as well. Sheesh!!

I really like the the kids in the hall show but this movie is not funny at all. I thought that because the guys that were in kids in the hall were in it and because they wrote it that it would be hillarious but it was really boring. If they do make another movie I hope that it is nothing like this one. I would not recommend this movie to anybody.

I was a fan of THE KIDS IN THE HALL. Yeah, sometimes the jokes went a little flat, but so often it was gosh darn funny and always was quick to take a risk or poke fun at nearly anything. Unfortunately, once the series ended, they decided to make a farewell film. In hindsight, they should have just left well-enough alone. Boy, was I disappointed. So often, when TV shows go to the big screen, the basic chemistry and formula that made them great is adulterated--this is truly the case with this film. Instead of being weird and funny, it was only slightly weird and not the least bit funny or entertaining. I would have been much happier if they had just strung together three episodes as the movie, instead.

First of all, the Kids in the Hall should rule the world. Honestly, they should. (Along with Will Ferrell.) If you are a fan, you don't even have an option, seeing it is a must. And who else but a fan would recognize Sid and Sharisse, and the Bigot Cabbie? This is a film only truly appriciated if you love little Bruce, and have a healthy respect for Mark's amazing command of fake accents. And if you can't stop staring at Kevin's hair, because it never ceases to amaze. Besides... they're Canadian. Who doesn't like Canadians? The short version: if you watch this, you will laugh. If you're a fan of KITH, you will laugh even harder. I can't get "Happiness Pie" out of my head, and you won't be able to either, because it's an ingenious song, (and no, I'm not high.) Bruce is short and moody. We all love Bruce. Mark can make funny faces. We all love Mark. Kevin does that little high-pitched squealing thing. We all love Kevin. Dave is obviously addicted to caffiene and other mood-altering chemicals. We all love Dave. And Scott is very, very gay. So, of course, we love Scott. It all just works out. SO, SEE IT! It will feel like it's 72 degrees in your head, all day long.

KITH's full feature film!! It's our five favorite clearly insane guys from up north. What else can you ask for? First, the story does NOT have your typical happy bears skipping, nutty bunnies frolicking kind of ending. The concept of pharmaceutical drugs being able to make life a better place is very thought provoking. Think about how we rely on drugs to treat colds, headaches...of course, we can discuss society's views on 'other' drugs, but that's a different monologue onto itself!! Anyhoo, the origin of the drug's name is hilarious!! I have to admit, the Kids really spoof the corporate world well. Bruce and Mark really play their eccentric characters to a "T". RED SOCKS, repeat, RED SOCKS!! Although limited, Dave does a great job playing the straight man ("I don't understand German"). Kev is his manic awesome self and Scott's best role is probably that of closet case Wally. I haven't even touched upon Grivo, the cabbie or any of the other characters in the film. Don't forget about Bellini! PLUS cameos too! KUDOS to the guys for not caving in and taking out C.B. (for those who haven't seen it, I don't want to spoil it) from the film due to pressure from the P.C. laden bigwig movie execs. I also enjoyed the moral (twisted though it is true) of the movie and there is a lot of subtle humor...just a tad darker than their TV series. The last time i saw this was probably 1996. Watching it again on DVD makes me really appreciate (and miss) the guys' film. Sure, it may not have done great in the box office or achieved the big bucks. Usually, I tend to avoid mainstream blockbuster poo, so Brain Candy is definitely cult material. But then again, aren't Kids in the Hall? *Sadly, the DVD is bare bones with the movie in widescreen format, chapter search and audio/subtitle. It's really great to just have this gem in my collection. Hey, I recently heard that KITH were discussing doing another feature film. Hmmm....
