DVD Review
Beer, broads and softball combine with hilarious results in ARTIE LANGE'S BEER LEAGUE, and over-the-top comedy about a group of misfits whose weekly softball games descend more into fights for macho dominance than making home runs. When love enters his life, it unexpectedly alters Artie's low self-esteem; and the odds for winning--not only the league trophy but a new life--are considerably amped along with the comedy and chaos.

Funny guy! - Rating: 5/5
If you're an Artie fan, great sense of goofy humor, and a good imagination, this movie is hilarious. I'm proud of Artie!
Funny but dirty! - Rating: 4/5
Artie Lange he's as raw as they come. To see this guy in high def is a trip. I would only recommend this movie to adults. For the high def buffs the AQ is ok the PQ is good for this type of movie. For 10-15 bucks it's a must have.
ABOUT WHAT I EXPECTED! - Rating: 2/5
I had never heard of this film, but finding it in my local bargin bin for a few bucks....I couldn't resist picking it up. It's about what I expected for my money. It's an OK romantic/comedy which is heavy on the low brow humor and light on the romance. The cast does what it can with what it has to work with. Ralph Macchio has seen better days,but it was good to see him in this harmless, goofy movie. The DVD transfer looks good and the are some extras to fiddle through.
WOW I love Artie but this sucked worse than my ex. - Rating: 1/5
Horrible acting. Stupid movie. Forced laughs. Im a fan of the obese gorilla on the show (when he's there) so I gave this a rental but man this was bad. Just bad. Pure chit even. Avoid at all costs.
Old fashioned comedic fun! - Rating: 4/5
Don't think too much about it, just pop it in and enjoy the ride. If you can put aside all the politically correct filters that have been raised in the last two decades you may just have a good time. Foul? Yes. Rude? That's right. Hilarious? Absolutely. But remember, just because you find it funny doesn't mean you agree with it.
