Film Review - Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie
February 01, 2012
For a pair of comedians who routinely make 11 minutes of television feel like a prison sentence, their debut feature film is surprisingly palatable.

Keeping to the pair’s modus operandi, it’s impossible to grasp the foolishness on display, but what they’ve cooked up here offers flashes of inspired stupidity and steadfast absurdity.
