When Walt discovers a talent for bowling, he goes pro to save the local alley, but his hilariously obscene and crude style ruffles some feathers.

The Gutter — like an early Paul Beatty novel — seems destined to be a cult classic.

I can't remember the last time a comedy this stupid was so smart in its jokes. The Gutter is the kind of comedy that scares the hell out of distributors because it doesn't play it safe.

Laughter strikes from all sides in “The Gutter,” the kind of brash and boisterous broad comedy that has largely been missing from multiplexes in recent years.

To use some bowling analogies, The Gutter is far from a perfect game, but there are a few strikes amidst its many spares.

Rated: 3/5

This hilarious, profane underdog story is best described as “Dodgeball” meets “Pootie Tang,” but with bowling. It has massive cult classic potential, if it can find its audience.

What Bottoms was to Mean Girls, The Gutter is to Dodgeball, ribbing on sports tropes through its silly gags.

Rated: 3/5
