National Lampoon's Gold Diggers Audience Reviews

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Eric Stevenson On RottenTomatoes, this film is ranked as one of the worst movies of all time with 44 negative reviews and zero positive reviews. It seems to not be that well known of a film seeing as how there's only 18 reviews here (well 19 counting mine). It's amazing that we have such a massive number of National Lampoon movies and most of them (especially the later) are horrible. It's gotten to the point where I've seen so many awful comedies I don't even really care anymore. This movie's plot has these two guys who marry these old ladies thinking they're going to inherit a fortune. They plan to kill each other.I sincerely do want to see everyone dead by the end of it. We get these two scenes where a murder attempt kills these two guys. Gee, I wonder what happens in the next scene with another failed murder attempt? Another guy dies and by being bitten on the crotch, how highbrow. 30 minutes into the movie it appears as though the old ladies die and it honestly seems like we'll have a new interesting plot. Too bad, it was all just a dream and we have to deal with the further idiocy of this film. I recognized Will Friedle in live-action as he voices Ron Stoppable from "Kim Possible". It's easy to say this is the worst thing he's ever been in. Much of the movie's humor goes through how these old women want to seduce these young men and it's as disgusting as it sounds, especially the whipped cream scene, which I don't want to elaborate on. These characters are such idiots as they throw away lemonade that they think tastes good...for some reason? I just know that after saying when life gives you lemons, she'll say you kill someone. I wish Mike Nelson had seen this as I couldn't see how anyone would stomach this more than "Little Nicky". 1/2*
shominy-491-652355 We just saw this movie and laughed and laughed and laughed from the very beginning 'til the very end! This is absolutely the funniest National Lampoon movie ever! Not only is the film's premise hilarious, but the dialogue (esp. between Chris Owen and Will Friedle) is absolutely a riot! This film isn't crude or gross like so many films today - it relies on real comedic situations for huge laughs! Louise Lasser and Renee Taylor were excellent, too! (BTW, the old, scratchy silent movie the ladies show the young men in their mansion's theater room is beyond hysterical!) The editing is perfect - not a dull moment in this movie! We are definitely buying this DVD!
nu_eu_am_comis_pacatul_o This movie is quite good, except for the ending. It has very funny characters and very interesting actors. I enjoyed watching it and I honestly tell you that everyone that says it's not a good movie is either full of envy or just doesn't know to appreciate a quality picture. I laughed and I laughed and I gave it a 10 vote because I consider the producers have done a very good making this film. I like it because the humor is very spiked and the script has very beautiful twists. It's an excellent comedy, if you like watching good actors playing spectacular roles. The old ladies are not actually that old in reality and the other actors knew how to play their part into making a masterpiece.
KCRfuture I had a chance to see a screening of this movie recently and it's one of the best comedies I've seen this summer. Will Friedle and Chris Owen are well-matched as brothers and funny in every scene together. And when this duo is paired up with Renee Taylor and Louise Lasser, it becomes an absolute howl. Anyone who likes silly humor, would greatly enjoy this movie. Will Friedle has great comedic timing and Renee Taylor can make anything funny. I actually found it funnier than "Van Wilder" because "Gold Diggers" doesn't rely so much on toilet humor to make you laugh. Movies that employ the use of talented, funny actors are good, no matter what the budget. It's what happens when you put the right people together with the right project, with I believe, Gary Preisler has done with this film.
