What to Know

Critics Consensus

Unfavorably comparing it with such infamously bad titles as Battlefield Earth, a significant number of critics are calling Tom Green's extreme gross-out comedy the worst movie they have ever seen.

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 Bob Grimm Reno News and Review Yes...I liked it. I did, indeed, like it. Rated: 3/5 Sep 16, 2024 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.

Jack E This is so funny proper classic. Used to watch this most weekends as an 18 year old after a night on the town. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/27/25 Full Review Marcelo F A giant middle finger to Hollywood in the most Tom Green way possible. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/09/25 Full Review Tyrone C An underrated gem about a whimsical man who goes out on his own, to find himself in a journey of self discovery. Will there be horses and sausages along the way? You bet! So buckle in and get ready to get fingered. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/02/25 Full Review Elijah S Unequivocally one of the most wretched, deeply unfunny things ever committed to film. A bowel movement has more value than this. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review Fabian A I dont get how people cant understand this kind of humour, i laughed from start to end, its silly, totally unpredictable and the fact that tom green got away with it speaks volumes, i enjoyed it a lot. People analyzing this movie as if it would be some deep thing, if you know tom green you know what kind of thing you were getting. I 100% recommend watching this movie once in a lifetime with a not serious approach and enjoy the ride! YOU GOT THE JOBBYY BUDDY! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/10/25 Full Review Erin C I'd give this zero stars if I could. Tom Green tried way too hard and was just absolutely terrible. He's never been funny, and I'm still confused as to how this even got approved to be made. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/25 Full Review Read all reviews
