[edit] Various comments < 2005

Was this movie really high-grossing? It seriously looked like quite possibly the shittiest movie I could ever have guessed existed... why on earth did people pay money for something that insults the intelligence of Australians, African-Americans, Caucasians, rappers, kangaroos, the desert, etc... (this is the movie I'm thinking of, right? With the kangaroo that steals money from some fat black guy and the guy from Sliders?) I guess I kind of assumed it bombed -- I know I'm kinda out of touch on a lot of things, but seriously... Even my mom agreed it looked terrible, and she likes anything with animals. Tokerboy

It was the number one movie of the week for, fortunately, only one week. The problem was the false advertising which made a lot of parents think it was a family movie. When it turned out not to be, word of mouth killed it quickly. -- Zoe

That just reinforces the point of the my eternal question: Imagine how many people actually approved that movie? How many people read the script and/or saw the final product and said "yes, this is a good movie. This is not a sign of the Apocalypse". I bet a hundred people gave this the go-ahead.

Well, Jerry Bruckheimer executive produced it, and after Con Air and the two CSI shows, he can do no wrong in Hollywood. Till Kangaroo Jack. -- Zoe

Added comedy film stub. I hold someone can expand this. It's a funny movie of children and adults. Psy Guy 16:44, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
