rating: 5 QuoteEXTREMELY FUNNY!!!Quote
This is an awesome movie that serves as a prequel to the hilarious tv series! A 47-year old ex-con, ex-prostitute, and ex-drug addict named Jerri Blank returns home and finds her dad in a coma. She returns to school as a freshman. Jerri makes some friends like Megawatti Sucarnaputri and Tammi Littlenut. A science fair comes up and Principal Blackman wants to win, so he hires a genius. Chuck Noblet puts together his own team to win. Jerri gets high with the other team, and gives them their plans. Jerri is kicked off the team and tries to think of a way to make it all better. If you love comedy, and the tv show, you'll love STRANGERS WITH CANDY!!! October 8, 2008

C'est le film le plus stupide que j'ai vu les 10 dernières années. Mal joué, un scénario idiot, une mise en scène plate et insignifiante. Je me demande pourquoi existe ce genre de cinéma??? Peut-être pour les inconditionnés de la télévision!!! Quant à moi, j'avoue l'avoir vu à cause de Justin Theroux, qui malheureusement fait une apparition express. August 30, 2008

The movie was okay, with some entertaining parts. Of course, I felt that it was more an extended episode of Strangers with Candy, and did not provide any new insights into the characters. Oh well. April 16, 2008

rating: 3 QuoteGreat movie/bad dvdQuote
If you enjoy the TV show you will love the movie.
The only problem I had with it was the actual DVD is warped. I returned it once and they sent me a new DVD and the second DVD is warped as well. March 25, 2008

Like the series, this film was made by a group of actor friends who decided to make a film. Is it funny? It's Amy Sedaris, mofo, so yeah, it's hilarious. It's also very uneven. Watch the film a second time with the Sedaris/Dinello/Colbert commentary on. It's not every day you get to hear filmmakers cheerfully point out their (many) mis-steps and mistakes. (One does long for Colbert to shut his yap hole, however. Christ!) March 3, 2008
