I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

I remember watching this movie back in the day when it was first released and I do remember it as being a rather funny and entertaining movie. Then I haven't seen it since, so I took it upon myself to sit down in 2017 and watch it a second time around......And the movie was every bit as funny and entertaining as I remembered it to be.I had totally forgotten that Jessica Alba was in this movie, so it was a nice surprise to see her here as a young actress and in a movie such as this. Just as it was a nice surprise to see Vivica A. Fox in the movie as well.The storyline in "Idle Hands" is entertaining, and very simple to follow. So the movie demands very little from the viewer, aside from you just leaning back to enjoy the show. It is about Anton Tobias (played by Devon Sawa) whom is wasting his life and youth with being high 24-7, when he one day wakes up to find his parents dead and that his right hand has become possessed and hellbent on a murderous rampage. With the help of his friends Mick (played by Seth Green) and Pnub (played by Elden Henson) they must find a way to stop the murdering hand.The special effects are quite alright, aside from a few times where it becomes quite obvious that it is CGI effects. You can notice that in particular on some scenes where there is a great different in coloration on Seth Green and Elden Henson. But overall good effects.There are some good moments and good laughs to be had throughout the course of the movie. And the movie also had a rather interesting and good choice of music to go with it.All in all then "Idle Hands" is a fun movie to watch, and it scores a 6 out of 10 stars from me.

I can't figure out who this movie is for. The humor was too juvenile and disgusting, so you'd think maybe it would appeal to 13 or 14 year olds, but it was very R rated with a lot of drug use, innuendo, and a fair bit of nudity. But viewers over the age of 18 or 21 would most likely find the humor too immature to really find it funny. I chuckled a couple times just because I was supposed to, but the characters were so unlikeable and the scenes so disturbing and ridiculous, it just wasn't that funny. I think I lost a few brain cells just from watching it.Jessica Alba looked great in this but her character was completely implausible... how could she possibly have been attracted to Anton? Every encounter with him he was acting like a complete nutjob. To me, humor works best if it's believable. The closer to real life, the funnier it is. This movie was so absurd I just couldn't find it funny, and it was gory to the extreme, with blood and gibs splattering everywhere, things getting impaled or sliced up. Monty Python can pull that sort of thing off and make it funny, but here it was just sick.I wanted to like this movie. I like the era it's from, late 90's, I like the actors, it had great music, and the idea of it was funny on the surface. The trailer made it look good, and I found a few writeups on the internet listing this as a must-see for Halloween. But for me, it goes into the junk pile along with movies like Joe Dirt or The Core.

Anton Tobias (Devon Sawa) is pot smoking teen slacker. He's so oblivious that he doesn't notice his parents had been killed on Halloween. His slacker friends Mick (Seth Green) and Pnub (Elden Henson) tell him about the serial killer on the loose. He's in love with Molly (Jessica Alba) next door but he's too shy to talk to her. Debi LeCure (Vivica A. Fox) is on the hunt for the killer, a demonic killer. Anton discovers the bodies. His right hand seems to have a mind of its own.Devon Sawa is not the most compelling lead. He does this pathetic slacker character well. The comedy duo of Seth Green and Henson is terrific. There's a young hot Jessica Alba. It has some funny moments. It just needs more of them. It's a junior take on the Evil Dead hand and there's nothing wrong with that.

Lazy Anton is too stoned to realize his hand has become possessed and murdered his parents. Despite blood on the floor and pieces of them like their eyes scattered about the house, he's completely unaware and it's business as usual for Anton - getting high from his makeshift bowl that he turned his asthma inhaler into and laying on the couch eating poorly and watching TV. His two dim bulb friends, one of which is a miscast Seth Green, aren't much help figuring out what's going on and quickly meet a gruesome end by the hand. An inspired gag is that his two friends return as rotting corpses, because it was too far to walk through the bright tunnel to heaven. Devon Sawa does some good physical comedy, the film is never serious for a second and there is a substantial amount of gore that is well done. A concert at the school dance with Offspring, hasn't aged well and didn't exactly scream quality back in '99 either and Vivica A. Fox could basically be cut from the film and not much would be impacted. Idle Hands is gleefully ridiculous and it's unfortunate critics had their knives out for this one and it tanked at the box office.
