I have never watched a movie that I couldn't even bear to sit through, but this was it. I like Happy Madison movies....but this was RETARDED. It made me want to shoot myself in the face.

This movie is awful. It is not funny, but instead, a total waste of time. Although the concept had the potential for a hilarious comedy, the end result was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It's that simple.

This movie was soooo funny! I recommend going a little inebriated, makes the whole thing that much better. Seems like they made it for me when I am either high or drunk (in this case both). Go see this movie!

I do not think I have ever seen as stupid a film as this "effort". It is shocking to me that this disaster... and it is a disaster for Happy Madison and the actors associated with it.. ever made it past the editing room. I enjoy a good dirty joke as much as the next guy. But this was not a comedy...it was in fact a tragedy!… Expand

This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. People need to grow up, and stop taking themselves so seriously. This movie is not meant to be a cinematic masterpiece. The comedy is in the absurdity of every situation.

They try to make a joke out of a man who was just cut in half, show us a mans deformed genitals, and throw so many gay and dick jokes at us that all I did throughout this movie was groan at how painfully boring this movie can be. Like I said there are a few chuckle worthy moments and all of them are in the trailer. Don't watch this crap.… Expand

These days, most of the good jokes have been done already so writers are having to take anything they can get. The cast certainly made up for this by great acting that really fit with the film. The acting may have not seemed great, but it really did relate well with the film, so I believe it was a job well done.… Expand

The execution of the film is poor, but it may contain the most quotable and laugh out loud moments to runtime ratios I've ever seen. Steve Zahn is hilarious and Allen Covert, Jonah Hill, and Justin Long all have a few moments or one linersThe execution of the film is poor, but it may contain the most quotable and laugh out loud moments to runtime ratios I've ever seen. Steve Zahn is hilarious and Allen Covert, Jonah Hill, and Justin Long all have a few moments or one liners that are so ridiculously funny.

If you go into Strange WIlderness with the realization that it's just one long sketch with a few bits to move the story along, and you aren't a complete dick, and your mother does not have two dicks, or she has a negative dick, and you aren't color blind, you'll be quoting this movie with your friends before you know it. And if you don't have friends, you should probably just kill yourself right now because L Ron Hubbard, Jesus, Rambo, and Allah say so in the good book.

Some epically funny stuff : Steve Zahn talking to a car full of cholos with an Indian accent, so they'd understand him better. Jonah Hill's song to his mom and step brothers in the RV. Justin Long's painted eyelids, "Woah a porcupine!" (it's a skunk), "It's cool, I'm a doctor, I need this **** "I'll take a Batman magazine". "They didn't understand my human language."

LONG LIVE STRANGE WILDERNESS!… Expand
