A low-watt, low-wit comedy. Go to Full Review

It almost seems like harder work somehow to get this many comedians together and then turn out a movie that is only so fitfully funny. Go to Full Review

Its jokes won't appeal to anyone older than 8, but a parent who takes a child to this crass mess would be subject to prosecution. Go to Full Review

Ed R @JustcallmeER Nov 3 What an odd movie, especially for one to be Rated R. See more 04/04/2022 I had higher hopes for this movie considering the cast. It had a few laughs here and there, but it was generally an unfunny mess. There was no character development or actual story arc. It was just a serious of bits. A few laughs, but I debated not finishing the movie while watching it. Overall very disappointing. See more 01/12/2020 Wow, how can one sum up a masterpiece such as "Nature Calls". You simply cannot, but you can give this movie the time of day. The casual nature of how the adult cast uses the word F-ck...wow just wow. It's done so effortlessly around the kid cast it really is truly a break through in cinema. Patton you truly did it you madman. See more 08/29/2015 I found this movie to be okay it had its funny moments See more 04/07/2015 To all you Patton Oswalt and Johnny Knoxville fans out there, this outdoors adventure movie will have you laughing. For those rainy days, a good scouts themed movie will brighten the day, sure it's rated R due to the language and a certain nude woman riding a motorcycle but she's only in a couple scenes.. I enjoyed it because it does have a good meaning behind it and plus it's always good to root for the underdog films that aren't well known. The slumber party scene is hilarious, got to check it out for yourself. See more 01/24/2015 The epic fail of year 2012 !! I know Johnny Knoxville is a crazy guy but he must be really crazy to play in this dumb movie . If you are going to watch this you will probably be disappointed believe me . See more Read all reviews
