Idle Hands was supposed to be a horror movie spoof; instead, it turned out to be gross-out horror movie lacking any substance, including horror or comedy, with a hand-off approach to entertainment. Full movie review »

February 22, 2004Idle Hands was supposed to be moronic in many ways. His friends harboring him no ill will after they die fits their characters from when they were still alive. They just didn't care about anything, including themselves. I agree it was just stupid on many levels. But it didn't try not to be. The movie was meant to be that way, and they succeeded. I didn't pop this in to see a powerfully character driven story, nor an expansive and memorable plot. This movie was just made for fun, and it was that. Fun.

November 5, 2003I really enjoyed this movie. Although, if you are the type of person that doesn't like drug movies, this is not the movie for you. I, however, really enjoyed this movie and found it quite funny. I would definately recamend it, especially if you are a teen (as I am).

October 29, 2003I loved this movie. I have seen it more than I need to. It's possibly the best movie made in a looooooooong time. I would (and do) recomend it to everyone I meet. I also love the way the offspring are in it. The only parts I don't like are the car scene and the performence of The Offspring's "Beheaded". I DO NOT like the way the cut it is up and when some one *caughs* dies.
