Carrot Top doesn't stretch from his prop-heavy stage act. He mugs, pouts and speaks loudly. Luckily for him, Jack Plotnick's annoying portrayal of Zak saves him from being the movie's worst actor. Go to Full Review

Simon James C Dec 19 More like Chairman of the B-O-R-E-D, am I right? See more Jonathan O 10/23/2024 Gawd this movie feels like I wanna kill myself this is so annoying the jokes are not very funny the main character is annoying and the actor is no Jim Carrey and is he either an actor or escape mental health. See more Sheldon D 04/22/2024 I don’t think this movie is as bad as everyone says. Haven’t watched it in years and saw it for free and decided to give it a whirl. I recently watched Jim Carrey’s The Mask and this was on par when it comes to the comedy and movie plot. A lot of one liners, slap stick stuff that falls short. I even thought at one point “is carrot top trying to be Jim Carrey in this movie?” But overall an amusing movie that is fun to watch. It seems like more of a kids movie, made for 10-14 year olds. But not as horrifying as everyone makes it seem. Watch it thinking Walmart brand Jim Carrey 90’s comedy and you’ll get it. See more Steve D 02/12/2023 One of the worst things ever put to film, See more Steven F 05/05/2021 CHAIRMAN OF THE BORED! Truly. One of the worst films ever made. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to give Carrot Top a starring role? No wonder that studio died after this film. I don't blame Larry Miller for firing his agent as well. See more 02/07/2021 This movie is so unfunny to watch. It is the worst movie that I have ever seen. See more Read all reviews
