Synopsis

When he’s asked to help save an ailing local car dealership from bankruptcy, Ready and his ragtag crew descend on the town of Temecula like a pack of coyotes on a basket full of burgers.

Told my buddy at work I would watch this. Could barely finish it. Has one, maybe two funny moments. But I was stoned, so it probably wasn't good at all. Avoid it all together.

What a lazy Sunday breakfast bowl of terrible. Jeremy Piven is a traveling used cars salesman with some different tactics for selling cars. His services are called upon when a car lot has one last weekend to save themselves before bankruptcy.
Most of the jokes are like a flat tire...flat. This movie is clunker. But seriously the jokes in this movie never deliver. This is one movie that you can skip. There is a silver lining though a scene where Will Ferrell dresses up as Abe Lincoln and jumps out of a plane and battle a dildo on his way down.
Watch "Used Cars" with Kurt Russell.

Throws a lot of jokes at the table and sees what sticks. Luckily most stuck.

Movie starts off pretty good, but it kind of loses steam after awhile and lands in cliche country.
A nice cast is what saves the plot. Piven is great, but Napier is the standout. -
I feel embarrassed to even admit to watching this film but I didn't hate it.
A lot of dry satire and some amusing moments. The plot is 100% predictable and kind of a side product of the movie.

I can't believe Piven worked so hard to hype a movie where everyone is funnier than him.

"In schoolyards, "Don Ready" is a euphemism for a hard-on."

Once in a while you choose a random film to watch out of boredom, frustration or any other multitude of reasons and it ends up surprising you. This, for me, is one of those times. I was genuinely surprised how much I enjoyed this and how much I laughed. Sure, it had some cliched characters, but it just worked for me. Very watchable and very funny indeed.

Obnoxious bollocks set in an alternate reality I never want to visit. I laughed once, and that was from a throwaway character that was never seen again. Pure shit.

A compulsively watchable film.
