ten reasons why this movie sucks

There are many more, of course, but here are ten examples why you should steer clear of this movie:
1. The "goofy fat black man" stereotype, which can make any Klan member delighted and everyone else looking for a vomit bag.
2. "Nine out of ten poison snakes live in Australia and they all come out at night" "How do you feel about a morning start?" Vomit!!!!
3. Farting camel stuff. "Camels are noble animals" Fart! Girl: "Oh, they do that." OK, that could be funny for the first time. Fart! "Oh jeez!" OK, I get it! Faaaart! "Oh God!" Fart! "Will those camels ever stop?" Fat black guy: "Oh, that was me!" Bet you didn't see that one coming!
4. Mob man got hit by a brush. His response: "I hate this country like a sickness!" The people who wrote the lines should be shot ten times and then hanged, if you haven't figured that out yet.
5. Goofy fat black man keeps taking pictures in Sydney airport and repeating "G'day mate!" 'Nuff said!
6. Mob man: "I'm gonna use your eyes as jewels!" Australian cop with poorly hidden American accent: "I love that Brooklyn vernacular! It's really hilarious" Where the hell did that come from?!!!!!
7. The stupid kangaroo, which really has almost nothing to do with the movie except for the title. And they keep calling him "Jackie Legs". If that doesn't make you reach for a vomit bag, I don't know what does. And you thought it was gonna accompany the characters the whole movie and talk funny! Fooled you in the previews, didn't we?
8. When the mob guy wants to kill the main characters in the end, you wish he does that, then chops them into little pieces and it is shown in slow motion with blood splattering and bones cracking. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen. Would've been the best part.
9. Stupid standard happy ending: main character (the white guy, of course) says: "That's me, I got the girl, I got lots of money, all the bad guys are in prison. And I got my best friend by my side." You guessed it, the goofy black guy, who of course performs another minstrel-quality act to confirm the stereotype once more.
10. It just plain sucks!
Note: If you think this movie offends black people or fat people, you're wrong. It offends EVERYBODY! |
