  Another Must-Own Comedy from Will Ferrell!!!

Kicking and Screaming is Another Must-Own Comedy from Will Ferrell!!!

An Awesome Story and Loveable characters make this movie one of Will Ferrells finest.

Initially I didn't care to see it, but I'm seriously glad I did.

Will Ferrell delivers his classic over-the-top performance. Ferrell is called upon to coach his sons new soccer team after Ferrells father (Robert Duvall) cuts Ferrells son Sam from his own soccer team. Ferrell then coaxes Mike Ditka (Da Bears) to help him coach the team. Ditka does an amazing job in this movie.

The team Ferrell coaches is the typical no-talent, all-heart mix of loveable characters made popular by movies along the lines of the Mighty Ducks and Little Giants. Two extrememly memorable characters are Byong Sun (played by Elliot Cho) and Mark Avery (played by Steven Anthony Lawrence)

Will Ferrell makes this movie what it is, without Ferrell this movie would've been a serious flop. I've always been a fan of Will Ferrell and this is just another one to add to the collection.

Final Verdict:

4/5

Rent or Buy?: If you're a fan of Will Ferrel this DVD definately belongs in your collection. However, if you find Ferrell too over the top, you might consider renting this one first.

IF YOU FIND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE. Thank you.

So Good! Kicking & Screaming is a PG-rated Will Ferrell movie made for the family - kids will love the story and soccer (think Little Giants) and adults will love Will Ferrell who is as hilarious as ever (just with a G-rated tone). Whether you're a Will Ferrell die-hard fan or looking for a Friday night movie for the entire family - this is a 5/5 movie that is guaranteed to entertain. Mike Ditka is a great addition to the film - he pokes fun at himself and is great. Robert Duvall is great as the crazy father. And the bizarre Byong Sun is hilarious as the mislead kid and steals all of his scenes.

Byong Sun: Whoo! Lets get electric in the air!

I find this movie to be very funny. I went to see this movie in theaters and loved it then too. When I saw it for sale on eBay I knew I had to get it. I think the whole theme is funny and GREAT at the end when he realizes winning is not everything...... AND THEY WIN!

Great, I recommend it

It was an okay movie. I got it for a good price. At 2:00 a.m. when you're half asleep, it's probably hilarious.

It was an ok movie. The kids watched it once and haven't watched it again. If they really like a movie they will watch it over and over.

Pretty good movie, grandson liked it, its not the kind of movie that I enjoy. I wanted to get some movies for my grandchildren that would keep them entertained for a little while. I probably won't keep it for my library.

My kids wanted us to buy this movie because they love soccer (ages 8 and 5). It was a very funny movie for them and they love to quote parts of the movie! I watched and it really struck me what some parents will do for sports. It's crazy. Anyway, good movie!

I never got the item and was never contacted. When the check cleared my bank a few days later I tried to send him an e-mail to see if item had been shipped. I got an e-mail stating seller was no longer a user on Ebay.

I really liked this movie, although I had to explain to the kids about some of the things the Dad did in this movie. I had to explain about bad sportsmamship and they understood. It was a good family movie though. I recommend it a lot. I bought it because it was a good family movie.

Pros:
Will Ferrell has some funny moments.

Cons:
The MPAA rating needs to go up a notch on this one.

When you have an over achieving father and a son who struggles athletically you get the humorously charged film titled, "Kicking

  Kicking and Screaming (2005)
Review created: 01/27/06
by: zenmachado-- a member of Epinions and Advisor in Movies

Pros:
Will Ferrell overachieves and makes this a pleasant view.

Cons:
Robert Duvall is splendid at serious roles. Wait.. this is not a serious role...

Java will make all you dreams come true. Taking under major consideration, that Kicking and Screaming was made predominantly for youngsters, the end product seems quite reasonable. It's not a landmark funny film but at the same time its just enough under the top to satisfy. Filled with many funny sequences, as well as an "after school special" ending, it is a fitting film for the family to see. Plus, you get the chance to see Will Ferrell overachieving. The script was not top notch, but Mr. Ferrell sure squeezed all the comedic juice he could out of it. What is all the Kicking and Screaming.

  Bend It Like Weston
Review created: 05/15/05
by: pmills1210-- a member of Epinions and Advisor in Movies

Pros:
Ferrell, Duvall, Ditka

Cons:
Predictable

Athletics have always been a part of the life of Phil Weston. Although Phil (Will Ferrell) was never a particularly gifted athlete, he participated in athletics because of his father, Buck (Robert Duvall), a fierce competitor, owner of a growing chain of sporting goods shops, and soccer coach. The only good thing that came from his days as an athlete is that he met his wife, Barbara (Kate Walsh). The competition between Phil and Buck didn't end, however, when Phil's dubious athletic career ended. When Phil opened a sports pill shop of his own, Buck always insisted his son would never make it..

  Will Ferrell Flips Out in Kicking & Screaming
Review created: 05/25/05
by: dragonfire88-- a member of Epinions and Advisor in Movies

Pros:
Will Ferrell and Robert Duvall. Entertaining.

Cons:
Predictable

Will Ferrell spent several years on the cast of Saturday Night Live before he left the show. He made several movies while on the show, though he was usually in supporting roles. He had the lead part in Kicking

  Will Ferrell and Mike Ditka??? Kicking & Screaming
Review created: 05/15/05
by: chelledun-- a member of Epinions and Top Reviewer in Movies

Pros:
Good family film, humor for both kids and adults, positive message

Cons:
Very predictable

I would call this a case of a pretty decent family movie with a bad name and poor marketing campaign. Kicking and Screaming opened this weekend, and despite having pretty decent star power in the cast, I had heard virtually nothing about it and didn t know what the plot even involved. But, it had Will Ferrell, and the alternative was Monster-in-law. So hubby and I decided to give it a try. The Plot The film centers around Phil Weston (Ferrell) and his somewhat tumultuous relationship with his very competitive father, Buck (Robert Duvall). To set the stage, we see Buck upstaging Phil by...
