Brain Donors is the funniest movie I have ever seen and I'v seen about 400 movies in my lifetime. This movie is funny even after seeing it 5 times. It makes fun of society in general and exaggerating on flaws in society. If you're looking for a funny movie rent this.

I will add "thanks" to all the users who have already praised this classic, add plead to Paramount for even a generic widescreen DVD release as my VHS gathers dust. I saw this movie first in the theater, I went with a friend and at most there were a dozen other people there. Like many users, I laughed 'til I cried, and I am one loud obnoxious freak, wired on juvenile remarks, it must have been a spectacle. At least when I left the theater this became an issue, as my friend, who was mostly silent during the screening, said he didn't think it was that funny. I said the other people there were laughing, and he replied, "They weren't laughing at the movie you freak, that were laughing at you." I'll believe otherwise. If you just want something funny, silly and fast, you gotta give "Brain Donors" a shot. The jokes overlap and are delivered so straight that it does require repeat viewing to catch the wonderful sight gags that are easily lost to laughing at the dialog so hard you cant see the screen. Pat Proft, a writer who is certainly hit or miss, is really at the top of his game here, closer to "Bachelor Party" and "Hot Shots" than "Police Academy". And everyone has already cited Turturro, whose movements (chasing ambulances, sitting in chairs) are as classic as his delivery. So watch it, and Paramount, release it, I'm ready to buy (again).

I had heard and read so many great things about this movie over the years that I finally decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it didn't even come close to the hype. I only laughed a couple of times during the entire movie and nearly every time there was a joke that missed the target I thought to myself, "Groucho/Chico/Harpo would have pulled that one off easily." The actors just don't have the timing nor mannerisms necessary for this to succeed. Don't waste your time with this one.

There are about 45 positive reviews here for Brain Donors and about five negative ones. My advice is to completely ignore the negative reviews. Here's what kills me. The few people who don't like this movie are never able to back up their negativity. They might say, "Oh, the movie was awful; it was so stupid; what's everyone talking about, this movie sucks," etc. etc. etc. But no one is able to back up anything they say. This is simply because there is nothing to criticize here. My only complaint about the movie is that it's too short. However, the number of jokes in Brain Donors surpasses the number of jokes in any other movie, regardless of length. And for the record, it's silly to dislike this movie because it's not the Marx Brothers. The directors were paying homage to the Marx Brothers and created a movie in the tradition and style of a Marx-style film. But that doesn't mean that it's trying to BE a Marx brothers movie. If they were, don't you think they would have chosen three actors who somewhat resemble the Marx Brothers? Anybody who didn't like this movie needs to watch it again.

A short word on Brain Donors (1992): Get it. I don't even think it was featured for a full week at the cinemas, but it made cable and that's where I found it. It is truly a great fast talking Marx Brothers movie--but made fifty years later. John Turturro is Groucho, Mel Smith is an English Chico and Bob Nelson is not quite a mute Harpo. But that's all right, we needed a new Marx Brother movie anyhow, and these guys will do. It's truly a clone of "Night At The Opera" but dressed up nineties-style and ballet instead of opera. So get it anyway and be prepared to laugh. By the way it came from the group that did Naked Gun and Hot Shots! movies, so you will know what you are in for. Enjoy!

If you have a sense of humor, you'll love this movie! What a hoot! Yes, I love the Marx Bros, but they're dead. This is a remake of Night at the Opera, 90's style. You'll laugh till you weep....unless you're a critic and can't enjoy a funny movie. The cast is great and the dancing duck will slay you. Rent it, tape it, whatever. I guarantee!

It's a real pity. John Turturro is one of the most respected American actors but before he was recognized he wasted his time on this stuff. "Brain Donors" wants to be a vaudeville farce but instead it's a just a terrible way to spend an afternoon. Yikes!

I saw this movie for the first time today on danish TV. Who has hidden this gem in all these years. Most recommendable, if you are a Marx Brothers fan, and who isn't ? The one-liners are great and the story is ridiculous. I love this film. When is it released on DVD ? I'll be the first in the queue to buy it. The film is full of wacky scenes, the acting is brilliant, especially Margaret Dumont, (sorry Nancy Marchand) but you almost can't tell it's not good old Margaret. John Turturro is far away from Barton Fink here, but most certainly very good. Bob Nelson does a Harpo Marx like no one else but Harpo. If you haven't seen this movie, do it and do it NOW !

i can't believe the ratings this movie is getting. they should all be 10's!!!! this movie is absolutely one of my all time favorites. everyone i recommend it to loves it and i end up scrapping the internet trying to find a copy. i really believe that the only reason people don't care for this movie is because they don't have the brain capacity to see the funny in it. some of the funniest one-liners and catch phrases i have heard come from this movie. "i hope you like it, it reminds me of you." "WATCH OUT FOR THAT TRUCK!!!" and last but not least "A woman voted by her senior class, most likely to go up a few dress sizes"AAAAAHHHH .. i love that one. if you are looking for just a downright funny movie, this is it!! RENT IT, BUY IT .. Borrow it... I'll lend you mine. i've watched this movie more than a few dozen times and still gets funnier every time i see it. One review i read said that the movie shifts into Neutral .. what is that guy on .. this movie is 150% the whole way!!!

An obvious rip-off of the Marx Brothers' "Night at the Opera," but who cares? It was damn funny, with John Turturro playing the Groucho part to the hilt and the hilarious Bob Nelson doing a great Harpo, right down to the raincoat. A pity it bombed in theaters, but it makes a great "This one too" movie to rent -- an hour and a half you won't regret plopping on the couch and laughing your head off.
