Popped up in a search for Missouri movies. Looked kind of like my home town, pretty much the same people. And that is the truth, there are people just like this in Missouri. The film had some cleaver puns and outlandish episodes (The exterminator, Noodling and the whiskey bong). The meth-head on a rocking horse & meth-head poet, that was killer. The epilogues were pretty cool, especially for Phillip Fellini, could be a perfect sequel setup. --- Watch it with out any hopes it will be good, and you will have some fun. Watch it with expectations and you will be disappointed. --- Now for some real Missouri Movies, try Winter's Bone and Killer Diller.

I don't know if I'd say this is a terrible movie because it does have a bunch of redeeming qualities, like Dian Bachar starring in it (Choda Boy) is great! They had some cool locations and there are some really funny scenes in it. Mostly the ones where some sort of fluid is shooting around, whether it be blood, semen, urine, are the funniest. Lots of funny props and cool stunts in it.I didn't know what really to expect in a movie with a title like this. And after it was over, I still didn't know what really to make of it. It for sure had funny moments in it. It's probably a great movie to throw on in the background of a party or something.Also if you're watching the DVD, there are some really outrageous deleted scenes.

If you like weird off the wall comedy and you want to find your inner beer-guzzling redneck, this is your kinda movie. A screener copy showed up here at work so I called up some friends, opened a case of Rolling Rock and we proceeded to laugh our asses off.Sam Macarone is great as a bus driver who goes to work in a beer hat, leather jacket and tighty-whiteys. Dian Bachar (who played Choda Boy in Orgasmo) is the world's most unlikely leading man so he's maybe the best thing about the movie, except for Stella Keitel-whose just plain hot. Preston Lacy reminds me of Chris Farley, a really strange, drunk Chris Farley.I don't agree with the first review at all, but I guess it means some people wont like this movie, but I think a lot of people will. We sure did.

Lucky Cucumber is a local "celebrity" who is known for many things, such as being "a man who would set another man on fire for a pizza," having had over 100 jobs and living in a cave. A couple of local filmmakers decide to take a government grant they were given and make a film about Lucky and his life. What ensues leads you deep into the world of a bizarre, dimwitted guy who lives with his cranky grandpa and awkwardly goes through life one weird day at a time.The theory behind The Life of Lucky Cucumber seemed like a good idea. A quirky, off the wall comedy that will throw unexpected scenarios and dialogue at you from one minute to the next. Unfortunately, the follow through did not pan out as the writing was not really that funny. The acting left a little to be desired, where the movie itself left a LOT to be desired. And I'm all for actors writing scripts, but think these guys needed to stick to their day jobs.
