    Yeah I watch thought it was just ok, watchable but nothing spectacular. I just wish they'd hurry up and make Super Troopers 2.

    I thought it was just OK...honestly i only watched it for April Bowlby and Cobbie Smolders, April was her usual ditzy self. Had a few funny bits, but not a great movie overall.

    Must be. I can't remember Super Troopers, but sort of recall it being crap. It says that this is by the same dudes that brought us Beer Fest. Have you seen that? It's one of THE worst films ever committed to... any medium. Just awful. Thinking about it even makes me angry.

    Yes I have.
    I can see why you and many other people don't like Beerfest as there is a lot of puerile humour and quite a few tired jokes.

    Enjoyed this not as good as Supertroopers or the holiday one.
    But a bit funny still.

    It wasn't the humour especially. It was just tired, clichéd, predictable, boring, third rate. Also, like you say, puerile. And juvenile. Not that these qualities are necessarily always bad.

    Thought this was a horrible joke about The Lovely Bones.

    Thread does not deliver.

    Just finished watching this and really enjoyed it. I've enjoyed all the Boken Lizard films thus far including the critically mauled Club Dread. After waiting so long to see The Slammin Salmon I really didn't think it would lvie up to my expectations but it managed to. It's not the greatest comedy ever made and isn't their best work but in comparison to many recent comedies it's head and shoulders above. 90 odd minutes of fun with enough laughs out loud moments to justify it's existence.
