Balls Out: Gary the Tennis Coach

Two Reviews- Read Both
Two Reviews- Read BothThis movie is a....1. Feel-good story of underdog local team making the championship, with the zany but gold-hearted unorthodox coach giving life lessons on the way to winning.But, it is also...2. Utterly insane; beyond-the-pale. Almost every scene presenting some epic moment of high school purgatory, angst, or humiliation. Virtually all of which are nervously close to unlawful behavior anytime after middle school. Squirm away, it keeps up til the very end.And if you're not laughing the entire movie, you were lazy and should have watched a trailer, read a review, and known what you were in for.It's raw. It's coarse. Dangerously licentious. But every bit of it captures some part of high school hell, but maybe how we wished the world was. We get it played out with the weird tennis kids & psycho coach consistently stomping their mojo on football players, teachers, and other teams, giving a big finger in the eye to the bullying.It's exceptionally funny.There you go. Two honest reviews in one. Proceed at your own comedic sensitivities (or peril).

Big laughs up for Balls Out!!
Seann William Scott and Randy Quaid are top notch hilarious. Haven't laughed this much in too long. We spend so much time being pc and far too little time just knowing when to laugh. Please continue to produce these laugh fests! There was once a time when straight up inappropriate was funny and everyone recognized stupid humor for what it was. Great, fun, & stupid humor.

If Trey Parker and Matt Stone made Napoleon Dynamite, it would have been like this. Unexpectedly uplifting.
If Trey Parker and Matt Stone made Napoleon Dynamite, it would have been like this. It's a weird cross between "dry/uncomfortable humor", "funny stoner jokes", and "positive and uplifting". The main character is relentlessly optimistic despite having a traumatic past and weird personality, which is unexpectedly uplifting.

If you like gross.
Balls out: Gary the Tennis Coach, is the perfect kind of gross out comedy that gets better with repeated viewings. At first it might be a little off putting, but once you get the movie's vibe, it's easy to go with. One potential problem is the character of Gary, played by Sean William Scott, who comes off as almost psychotic in some parts; this is one of those movies, like Cable Guy, that is centered around an unstable lead. Also, the plot, what there is of it, is the usual sports underdogs and losers trying to become champions cliche we've seen many times, but this is no Mighty Ducks, there is plenty of bathroom humor (taking a dump and puking), really dirty talk (a very foul mouthed little girl), racist jokes (directed at Asians), and plenty of good old bad taste. If you're easily offended, then consider yourself warned. I think this is the perfect movie when you want to do nothing more than kick back and laugh at the same dumb joke over and over. If you are a Randy Quaid fan, you may be disappointed, as his role is relatively brief; is this the last movie he made before going cuckoo for coco puffs? To sum up: Balls Out: Gary the Tennis Coach is not quite in the league with Caddy Shack or Happy Gilmore, but it comes close enough, and I wouldn't be surprised if doesn't develop a cult of its own in the future.

Completely stupid, and completely funny
This movie doesn't break any new ground in cinematography. It is totally stupid, but I found it to be hilarious. There are a lot of subtle things in the plot and dialog that are outrageous. If you are a fan of Seann William Scott, this will probably satisfy. Just don't expect too much, and let the art wash over you.

Guy humor!
I found the movie very funny and liked humor. When you watch this movie, don't expect a great plot, production value, or smartscript. It's just a bunch of little jokes put together to make a movie. But I enjoyed it and laughed lots.I think only few ladies would enjoy this movie as most of the jokes are crude and geared towards guys and their kind of humor.
