So, has anyone seen it? I saw it at Best Buy and was going to pick it up, but decided to get some input first.

Is this just the MAN version of RUN LOLA RUN?

I haven't seen the DVD anywhere around here. I have it burnt on CD already though. I enjoyed it like I posted before. It isn't anything special but if you are a fan of Ronnie Dobbs' humor, it's a good pick up. Doesn't compare to our beloved Mr Show but that is obvious.

It sucks. I'd say there was about 5 good things and that's it.

It doesnt suck, it just isnt mr show quality. I would rather watch this move over 90% of the movies coming out.

If Run Ronnie Run weren't made by Bob and David, you'd probably "discover" it on the New Release shelf and think it was great and show it to all your friends. But since Bob and David made it, it's disapointing. It's not all Bob and David's fault though; Troy Miller fucked them over by taking over on all the editing for the movie, leaving things in that Bob and David begged him to cut out. That's a big reason as to why it sucks.

It didn't really have that many funny parts. I mean, that kid in the wheekchair and shoes and shit? That wasn't even funny, it was like it was trying to be like Mr. Show but just came off as cheap imitation. They also changed the story of Ronnie and added a bunch of character's like the narrator that where completely unnessecary and completely unfunny.

It's not so bad. I bought it on DVD and watched it a few times, and it grows on you. It's likeable if you don't expect too much from it, but likeable or not, it isn't that funny.

It's especially ideal for DVD viewing, you can skip to the better scenes in the movie. It's the kind of comedy that needs to be made more often, and it's funnier than almost all comedies you'll see in theaters.
