K B What a quirky well done movie! It’s not a blockbuster that everyone is used to & it gets hate for that. It has some really funny spots & is written well! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/18/24 Full Review Audience Member When the owner of Rose manure passes away his fecal empire is bequeathed to his daughter played by Tea Leoni and has to deal with and get help from his core group of salesman led by Billy Bob Thornton. In her way are a rival group led by Kyle McLachlin. This wants to be funnier than it is even goes as far as giving Ed Helms a ridiculous side effect from the competitions' product. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a new cult classic, so funky and bad that it's good. Also has some very funny parts! Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Disappointing. I expected more of this given the comedy potential of the story idea and the decent cast. Visually stunning but poorly scripted. Just not funny or interesting enough. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Fine, off putting at some points, but still genuinely entertaining comedy film. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a movie about manure salesman. The dialogue reminds us of this fact again and again and again and again and again and again with one poo joke after another. So in that spirit I'm going to write this review in exactly the style of this film's dialogue: This is one of the SHITTIEST comedies I've seen in a long while. What the hell are Billy Bob Thornton, Kyle MacLachlan, and Ed Helms doing in this MESS? And poor Tea Leoni; it's too bad she has to appear in CRAP like this. She must be in a financial PINCH. Director Michael Polish does an EXCREMENTAL job here. His visuals look as though they come from commercials; commercials about POOP, probably. The TURD of a story on offer here is not worth expanding on, since it's hardly substantial enough to MAKE A SPLASH. Someone ought to SQUAT over this MOUND and then throw it in the TOILET where it belongs. This film, in case I haven't been absolutely clear, is a PILE OF SHIT. There. Having read my review, you don't need to see the film, because that's EXACTLY what it's like. Don't waste your time. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
