    Don't bother with this movie, the trailer has all the laughs, this movie was dull and not funny at all.

    Absurd and unfunny Balls of Fury suffers from a cheap look and a bad leading character. The supporting characters actually are funnier, if you like little girls that punch guys in the nads, but it's hardly enough comedy to save this supposedly outragious comedy. There's actually very little outragiousness or halirity and a lot of stereotyping and predictability. I say you're better off watching Will Farrelll ice skating or car racing for 4th time.

    I was really looking forward to seeing this flick, as I love this type of comedy. Unfortunately, the funniest parts were the clips shown on the television commercials. A good story, but not too funny. Even Christopher Walken couldn't save this one. His funniest line was his first.
