Paul Tatara CNN.com Take a bow, 20th Century Fox, and don't forget to flush. Feb 3, 2018 Full Review Daily Telegraph (UK) Rated: 1/5 Dec 24, 2010 Full Review Globe and Mail Rated: 2.5/4 Mar 19, 2002 Full Review Aaron Murray Loud and Clear Reviews Freddy Got Fingered isn’t a movie for everyone, but what it represents is far more universal and human. It’s a stunning example of how filmmakers should perceive Hollywood. Aug 4, 2024 Full Review Bianca Garner InSession Film Success or not, the case remains that Freddy Got Fingered is a unique piece of cinematic history that has to be seen in order to be believed. Jul 31, 2024 Full Review Chuck Klosterman Akron Beacon Journal One gets the impression that Green consciously tried to make the worst film ever produced, and he’s doing it simply because a boardroom full of suits at 20th Century Fox gave him a dump truck of money. Rated: 1.5/4 Oct 30, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/30/24 Full Review Christopher M Honestly this movie is criminally underrated. It's stupid, it's hilarious, enjoy! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/15/24 Full Review Gorptholemew T 🍀 4.6/10 Oh yes, my favorite Disney movie Freddy got fingered a true classic amongst the Disney catalogue. I’d like to think this is a person playing a video game and everybody’s just an NPC. Honestly I bet Jen Alpha would love this one constant stimulation at its finest I don’t really know what to think except for that was an experience I’ll never forget. Thank you Nightenday 😀. Grade C+ Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review Bahad j This idea of ​​the filmmaker made the movie more accessible to more people. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Read all reviews
