If you are a Stern fan, you’ll like this movie! If you are an Artie Lange fan, you’ll love this movie. If you don’t like either one of them, this movie is not for you. Artie Lange, who has talked about his life on the Howard Stern show, gives his fans another reason to root for him in this movie. The humor is sophmoric, but Artie is just being Artie! It is filled with gay bashing, drug humor, lots of T&A, and oh yeah, they try to play softball throughout it. This is not a Bull Durham, Major League, or The Natural movie, but that doesn’t mean it’s not fun.
Ralph Macchio is n this movie as Artie's best friend as he is planning to marry a woman who flat out hates the best man, in this case, Artie. Laurie Metcalf plays Artie’s mom who, if you listen the Stern Show, plays what Artie considers to be a close second to his real mother.
The movie also has a few former SNL’s who cameo in the movie, Jim Florentine (Robin Quiver’s ex boyfriend in real life), Jim Breuer, and even Tina Fey. As for Artie Lange, he’s not going to win any acting awards in this one, but honestly, I don’t think he’s looking for that.
Being a Stern fan, I can honestly say…..this one’s not for everyone, but like I said, if you love Artie Lange, you’ll love this movie.
