IMHO REVIEW :
oddly entertaining.

so i watched 4 dvd's over the weekend - and sadly this was the best out of the lot - not because this movie was so bad, but rather the other three were so bloodie aweful.

so the benchwarmers kinda shocked me. i was expecting a very low brow crude humored movie, instead i find that this movie seems to be geared towards kids. yes you read correctly - kids. i say 'seems' because there are jokes which are more for adults (high school and up). but things like the 'titty twister' and dog poo and farting on someone's faces - hmmm.... yeah.

overall the movie had a likeable cast of characters (shockingly rob schneider doesn't pay an idiot in this movie), twists to the plot which wasn't expected and an overall feel good let's all hold hands and sing a song type ending - thus i say it seems to be geared towards kids.

looking for a comedy that you can watch with your kids (my guess is middle school and up) then this might be the flick for you.
