Such a frustrating disappointment

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

It's worth a watch if your expectations are not too high.It has it's funny moments and irritating moments. It was supposed to be a parody of the 80's TV show Macgyver , however it was far from it, which i am glad.Worth a watch if you got nothing better to do

I can't believe I never heard of this movie. I only found out about it because it was at a gas station for 3.99 brand new. I did not even know what it was. It was actually my husband that said it would be funny. We have a DVD player and TV in the car, so I got it and away we go.This movie is hilarious! It was so funny. I didn't like it at first since it started slow. Quickly it grew on me. Within 10 minutes it was the best movie ever! I laughed like crazy throughout.So many good one liners in this movie. Fun lines, twisted funny, what a hilarious character. I have seen movies of a spy not being good where it is not done that well. It is a good concept but hard to execute. This movie does it perfectly. He is terrible and it is hilarious. He is a ridiculous person and his antics were always entertaining. A bummer this movie flopped in theaters. It deserved better.I am surprised Ryan Philippe was involved. He is great.

This is the stupidest and a rowdy film that SNL has ever done involving Forte's character. His character just seemed to be like one of the guys who talks complete rubbish and doesn't care about anything he says. I laughed when he just showed himself off at the nightclub and became violent that he broke a windows leaving the party people gob smacked xD Although I didn't consider the sex that great like I know it's his character sense of being a foul mouth dirt bag but it just looked rotten when he did it to the two women he loved. I was a bit disappointed at Val Kilmer's character, he didn't have that villain 'look' or 'voice' in him. He just looked normal to me, they shouldve picked a better villain that looks and acts scary in order to destroy Macgruber. Kirsten Wigg was awesome at playing Vicki like seriously she can act in anything from a girly girl to a serious woman with swag :DIf you like James Bond, then you'll love the action in this!

I have heard some describe this movie as not a MacGyver parody but an 80's action movie parody. They are right. But what they fail to mention is that as an 80's action parody, it fails flat on its face. Most of the jokes are unfunny and MacGruber is not a likable character. You are force-fed his humility and therefore it comes of as cliché, and unbelievable. When your main character is a jerk throughout the movie who know you have a problem. Val Kilmer in my mind is one of the perks of the movie. The other is Ryan Phillipe. The jokes are usually crude and come off as mostly juvenile. What this movie needed was someone to write a better MacGruber characterization. Let's remember Wayne's World. Both Wayne and Garth's characters in that movie were likable from the start and furthermore, the character's that came out were flesh and blood, real and genuine. That's what this movie needed, a genuine character, not stock and cliché. Definitely a rental.
