Kangaroo Jack Audience Reviews

Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
bananaguy-34761 Kangaroo Jack is god. If you dare slander his name, i promise you pain without end. Kangaroo Jack is the greatest movie to be created by Warner Bros. One of my personal favorite scenes is when they are in the toilet and it sounds like their talking about poop when they're talking about money haha 10/10
olajuwonayoomobo Unimaginative, unfunny, and unbelievably tacky. Most of the film is focused on the two guys and the only reason Kangaroo Jack is even in it is to make the film go faster and to bring humor, which failed horribly. The two guys aren't even that entertaining either. Just a bunch of fart and sex jokes with bad delivery. It's a boring movie with a dumb plot.
Juanchy Gz I have seen Kangaroo Jack lots of times and it ALWAYS makes me laugh, and when I say ALWAYS, means every time I see it! It's all about your point of view.This is a movie to watch with your family and have some fun together. You can't see it expecting a masterpiece.I don't know, but this movie is not that bad as everyone here is saying. I found it interesting and hilarious, still one of my favourites comedies. I watched it when I was 11 and loved it and still laughing with it, isn't that great? Deserves a better rating, but w/e.7/10. Still a good comedy.
vip_ebriega My Take: Part-Jerry Bruckheimer chase movie. Part-ROGER RABBIT inspired comedy. All bad excuse for family entertainment.KANGAROO JACK is just about as bad as the most popular film of the similar kind, WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT, is great. Like any slapstick family movie, KANGAROO JACK is purely juvenile attempt, only this time, it's produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. Instead of pies thrown at people's faces, baddies stepping on banana splits and then slipping or getting their heads or crotches hit very often (or at least besides them), We have Jerry O'Connell and Anthony Anderson play best buddies who are sent by mob boss Christopher Walken (!) to Australia to deliver $50,000 to a certain Mr. Smith on a specific deadline. Just before parents are starting to think it's the wrong movie, they come across a pesky kangaroo and somehow gets his hands (paws? pouch?) on the $50,000. Now they just throw in explosions, car chases, PG-level slapsticks and maybe a few cuss words in place of the banana splits, pies and silly family movie-level slapsticks.Kids will love it as usual, but there's nothing really likable about it. Adults will either check their watches or cover their ears as and eyes as the movie seems to mistake itself as a BAD BOYS sequel. It's one of the noisiest family picture in years, and also one of the least appealing. Kids will probably root for the kangaroo and his strange antics. But not so surprisingly, adults might as well root for ol' Jack too. At least he seems to be on the right place. The rest of the movie however, from the misguided casting of simply misguided characters to the totally gratuitous action scenes, KANGAROO JACK is a cross between a Jerry Bruckheimer production and a worn-out slapstick comedy that doesn't work either way you look at it. Avoid.Rating: *1/2 out of 5.
