Interesteg What makes it different from others?

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Chantel Contreras It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

nonnette110 If this is classed as comedy, I think I feel my intelligence is insulted. the only reason I didn't rate this movie a 1 is because I did enjoy the cars used in this movie as well as the soundtrack. what wonders me most is how did they get Val Kilmer, to play in this childish movie. I did not manage one laugh of even a smile.

Funasian2005 It's worth a watch if your expectations are not too high.It has it's funny moments and irritating moments. It was supposed to be a parody of the 80's TV show Macgyver , however it was far from it, which i am glad.Worth a watch if you got nothing better to do

Johan Dondokambey The story gets tries to be serious at first. And considering it's an action comedy movie, it tries too hard. And when it kind of succeeded, it's disappointing when the funny parts come crushing in all the seriousness. The unfortunate events that are designed to be funny points of this stupid movie just don't fulfill their goals because the serious buildup is overly strong to be topped by such lacking designed clichés. The dialog also sound very stupid. The acting is just lame overall. I'm surprised that even Val Kilmer quite sucked here. Will Forte tries too hard and gets his acts hyperbolic and it's the worst down turn for this movie. I was surprised myself to have braced until the end of this stupid movie.

David Klecker I have heard some describe this movie as not a MacGyver parody but an 80's action movie parody. They are right. But what they fail to mention is that as an 80's action parody, it fails flat on its face. Most of the jokes are unfunny and MacGruber is not a likable character. You are force-fed his humility and therefore it comes of as cliché, and unbelievable. When your main character is a jerk throughout the movie who know you have a problem. Val Kilmer in my mind is one of the perks of the movie. The other is Ryan Phillipe. The jokes are usually crude and come off as mostly juvenile. What this movie needed was someone to write a better MacGruber characterization. Let's remember Wayne's World. Both Wayne and Garth's characters in that movie were likable from the start and furthermore, the character's that came out were flesh and blood, real and genuine. That's what this movie needed, a genuine character, not stock and cliché. Definitely a rental.
