*** 1/2
The "Average Joe Gym," owned by Peter La Fleur, is about to be taken over by the enormous Globo-Gym. His only chance to get it back is by retrieving $50,000. Coincidentally, a dodgeball tournament is happening in Las Vegas where the grand prize is 50k. Peter and his friends must compete and win this tournament to keep their gym, but of course not without White Goodman, the owner of Globo-Gym, in the same tournament.
I'm just gonna say this: Ben Stiller makes this movie. Given that their is a great supporting cast, Stiller steals every scene. Besides that this movie is hysterical. Along with "Anchorman" this is the second "stupid" comedy of the summer, and I loved them both. Just about all the jokes work perfectly.
Highly recommended.
