What Parents Need to Know
About The Comebacks
Parents need to know that because this sports-movie spoof has been marketed as being from the creators of Wedding Crashers, it's definitely going to appeal to teens. Originally rated R (it got its PG-13 on appeal), it has a lot of sexual references -- mostly through double entendres and sight gags (a wife is caught in bed with another man, a girl gymnast makes several lesbian jokes, etc.) -- though no actual nudity. There's also drinking and drug use, particularly on the part of the crazy coach who wants his players to learn how to party. Some language ("s--t") and cartoonish, slapstick-type violence.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the differences between a parody and its source material. Is it easy to identify which movies are being spoofed here? Which gags work, and which aren't funny? Do you think anyone will find any of it funny decades from now, when half of the references will have been forgotten? Do you think the filmmakers care about that? Why or why not? Also, the coach demands that his players start failing class and party more; is that believable? Are sports movies as predictable as this comedy suggests? If so, is that necessarily a bad thing?

WORST MOVIE EVER!!!!
This movie was so bad. It isn't funny at all which is a problem since it is intended to be a comedy.

PG-13 rating a joke
I took my two kids, aged 12 and 15 to this movie. We were all so offended by the unnecessary sexual references that we walked out, got our money back and watched a different movie. There is nothing funny about this movie (from what little we saw). Overly crude sexual references and a very poor plot was the mainstay of this movie. No wonder we were the only three in the theater as it was being shown!! The R rating should have not been changed to PG-13 on appeal. This movie is NOT appropriate for anyone under the age of 17.

Load of crap
This movie is DEFINITELY funny...but it is so crude and the sexual jokes are SO bad that I walked out of the movie. Because of so many other movies out there that have the same kind of humor I'm tempted to say "watch if your old enough". But really nobody should watch this movie. It has lots of stuff nobody should put in their mind

wtf
this movie was just not cool. it was lame and so predictable
- I rate this title iffy for age 2 and give it
funny, though oddly forgettable
This is defanitly a teenage guy movie (so, naturally, i loved it). Lots of slapstick jokes (2 or 3 people get shot and get back up) and sex jokes. Good for guys over age 12, and anyone who likes Scary Movie

eh...
Although this movie was an appropriate movie for kids my age, It wasn't very good. I'm almost 16 years old and I thought the movie was pretty inappropriate. I saw this movie with my boyfriend and he enjoyed it, but i thought it was pretty demoralizing and awkwards to watch with him because of all the sexual comments and jokes.
