What to Know

Critics Consensus

Unfavorably comparing it with such infamously bad titles as Battlefield Earth, a significant number of critics are calling Tom Green's extreme gross-out comedy the worst movie they have ever seen.

Loud and Clear Reviews

Freddy Got Fingered isn’t a movie for everyone, but what it represents is far more universal and human. It’s a stunning example of how filmmakers should perceive Hollywood.

Success or not, the case remains that Freddy Got Fingered is a unique piece of cinematic history that has to be seen in order to be believed.

Chuck Klosterman

Akron Beacon Journal

One gets the impression that Green consciously tried to make the worst film ever produced, and he’s doing it simply because a boardroom full of suits at 20th Century Fox gave him a dump truck of money.

Christopher M Honestly this movie is criminally underrated. It's stupid, it's hilarious, enjoy! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/15/24 Full Review Gorptholemew T 🍀 4.6/10Oh yes, my favorite Disney movie Freddy got fingered a true classic amongst the Disney catalogue. I’d like to think this is a person playing a video game and everybody’s just an NPC. Honestly I bet Jen Alpha would love this one constant stimulation at its finest I don’t really know what to think except for that was an experience I’ll never forget. Thank you Nightenday 😀. Grade C+ Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review Bahad j This idea of the filmmaker made the movie more accessible to more people. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Jason B This comedy is unapologetic and unforgiving and will make you develop a sense of humor in order to cope with the trauma happening on screen. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/06/24 Full Review hayley l This film was ahwad of its time for comedy.
