rollingpix In reference to the review by Zogmorph dated 5 Octo 2004: I worked on this picture in a supporting capacity. I was also at the screening Zogmorph mentions, and yes, there was an almost total walkout by the audience. A few stayed and actually gave us some good feedback. I want to point out that this movie was made in 1988, four years before Wayne's World (1992) and Wayne's World 2 (1993), which ushered in an era of gross-out comedies, including titles like There's Something About Mary (1998) and other Mike Myers efforts like the three Austin Powers movies. Gross-out comedy is now big box office, with recent examples like The Hangover I & II and even female gross-out like Bridesmaids. The reason the audience at the screening walked out was because the ladies in those days couldn't stand the gross-out elements (which by today's standards are fairly mild) and they dragged their boyfriends with them. The fact that the other reviews on this posting page (all written between 1999 and 2006) are uniformly positive is proof that 2 Idiots was way ahead of its time. The movie is based on a stage play done in Los Angeles in the mid-1980s, and the entire cast of the play ended up in the movie. We all had a terrific time, and speaking on behalf of the cast & crew, we agree with Andrew Jones from London, Les Boulez from North Carolina, and Anonymous from Cincinnati. I can't wait to see Tobolowsky's planned sequel, 2 Idiots Go to Jail. --Written by Frederick Bailey, Production Associate/Nude Chauffeur/Robot From Outer Space

p_sandalz I couldn't disagree much stronger with the sentiment of old zogmorph's review of this movie. I guess it's one of those films that you either love or truly hate.It's not the most sophisticated of premises, I'll give you that much: a chief guiding principle of the film, for example, is that the protagonists, and even inanimate objects, must send themselves up at almost every opportunity. How many scenes are interrupted by problems with the set, passers by getting in the way, and loud police sirens drowning out the diction? But it really works for me. Similarly, a lot of the humour is pretty childish: there's a character called Loupenis Jones! But it's all good good good as far as I'm concerned. I ask you: Loupenis, hahahaha.But. You don't understand. When the moon is full...If you don't know what comes next you need to see the hit film TWO IDIOTS IN Hollywood.

eggjones A hilarious jaunt through the lives of two complete losers, this film must not be missed. The jauntieness of it's hilarity is complete. Also, do NOT miss The Robot From Outer Space - it's excitement! it's suspense! it's excitement!What must die for the earth to live - see this film and find out!

yuanshik or should i say "a t. barry armstrong masterpiece?" Yeah, this movie is dumb. but it's worth it. basically this is the funniest movie ever. period.
