Movie Review
Krippendorf's Tribe is neither funny nor amusing. It consists of the same bland formula that has been played out countless times, featuring the idiotic charade of creating false characters to be comical. Krippendorf's Tribe is about the least-intriguing of them all, despite having Richard Dreyfuss. Yawn you will while watching this boring film and never again will you rent it. The same formula has been used countless times in the past; Mrs. Doubtfire, The Associate, and now Krippendorf's Tribe prove that the genre is dead. Full movie review »
