Too much of everything

It is a performances centric movie

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Two potheads wake up after a night of partying and cannot remember where they parked their car.Some stupid humor works and some is just stupid. This tends to lean more towards working, though there are plenty of stupid moments that are just beyond belief. There are also a few crude sexual jokes that I could have done without, but I suppose that is the audience. (Do you regret this one, Jennifer Garner?) There should be no surprise that at one point this was a "Beavis and Butt-Head" script.The great cast and sporadic humor make this enjoyable. Not great, maybe not a classic. And if it is to be called a "stoner comedy" (which is a stretch), it would not even compare to the likes of "Half Baked".

Jesse (Ashton Kutcher) and Chester (Seann William Scott) are two idiots who party too hard and must remember what happened last night. They have to find their car and their anniversary gifts for their girlfriends (Jennifer Garner, Marla Sokoloff).Sure it's stupid. It's so stupid. It's so very very stupid. That's the point. What makes this works is the two leads. Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott are both likable actors and they make a fun couple of friends. Although the script seems to be written by people who's had too much weed. It's still fun for sober folks. Although it'd help to have just a little. This from Danny Leiner who would bring us another stoner classic 'Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle'.

Like others said, this movie is dumb, silly and devoid of any shred of intelligence or sophistication....... And that makes it one of the greatest, and one of the funniest, stoner comedies of all times.Go somewhere else for an intelligent movie, but for some mindless fun, especially if you are in the right "altered mood", this movie is fantastic.Personally I like all kinds of comedies, smart or silly, as long as they are funny; this one made roll on the floor laughing at times,so I strongly recommend it to any fan of silly, over the top, campy stoner movies In other words..... sweet movie, dudes.

Quite a lot of punctuation in the title for a small minded and dopey stoner comedy like Dude, Where's My Car? which pairs the likable, but too toned down Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott as two buddies trying to piece together what happened the night before and answer the simple question "dude, where's my car?" The guys awake in their trashed apartment and realize that some event of uncertainty was conducted with their presence and they can't for the life of them figure it out.Soon it isn't long before they are subjected to a group of scientists questioning the whereabouts of a tool known as a "Continuum Transfunctioner" which has the ability to destroy the universe as we know it. The boys also must find their car to assure their twin girlfriends get their anniversary presents the boys bought and, in reward, they will give them their "special treat." The premise is ultimately way too goofy and far out to be enjoyable. I would've liked it more if we got more Kutcher/Scott screen time instead of flashing back and forth to the girlfriends, then the scientists, then the "hot girls," then more scientists. I'm trying to figure out if this was a test of sanity amongst the audience or a test of fatigue.What bothers me the most is how the film suddenly wants to focus a lot on the crude and sexual humor, but then almost limits itself from it. For example, there are numerous scenes conducted on the fundamentals of women's bodies. We have a group of, maybe seven, women following the boys around trying to get answers. They come in dark black outfits and are beginning to say in some scenes "let's show something." We all know Kutcher and Scott can be far dirtier than this writing. Kutcher can be vulgar and sometimes over the top like his character Kelso on That 70's Show (and he's not playing too much different of a person in this movie) and Scott worked on American Pie as the foul-mouthed and crude Stifler. Why doesn't the film make these guys into way more realistic and way more cruder guys? I can't believe I'm saying this but if you're going to make a comedy, a stoner comedy, make the characters vulgar and not as one dimensional. Not to mention their over use of their annoying catchphrase.I thought for the first half an hour that Kutcher and Scott worked great as the "unlikely heroes" and came off as a live action Beavis and Butthead. However, the film gives them no dialog to work it and the whole movie is just one suggestive theme after another begging to go further than its PG-13 rating.Dude, Where's My Car? is a very one note comedy that doesn't really want to tap into anything more than an average late night watch. I don't think this is the type of movie meant for criticizing. Regular audiences, mainly teenagers, will find most of the humor "hilarious." Most adults will find it annoying and relentless. I'm the ladder category that found it to be only funny when Kutcher and Scott were on screen. The rest of the time I was just trying to keep in tune with the arbitrarily constructed science-fiction plot leaching onto the film. This is a film about piecing together what happened the night before. It isn't called Dude, Where Did You Leave that Totally Weird Space Thing? We Could Totally Use it Right Now! Also, the big question is never answer. And it isn't the title question. It's the second most asked question is the film - what the hell happened that night?...Starring: Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott. Directed by: Danny Leiner.
