Description:
Would-be babe magnets Calvin and Leonard (Friedle and Owen) thought that the only way they could ever get girls was by getting rich... by getting hitched... to the elderly! And now that they've waltzed down the aisle with two giddy biddies, can these two gold diggers achieve their American Dream? Or have they just dug themselves into a corpulent nightmare?

Rating:  - Fabulous movie!
This movie is VERY funny - I love it! I did get the unrated version, and wish I had gotten the rated version instead (the flashes of the gal unclothed are a little too much). I understand that some may not like it, but if you liked Dumb and Dumber, you WILL like this movie! Watch this movie with the expectation of ridiculous situational comedy and unbelievable human behavior, and you will like it!
Rating:  - Totally different than Expected?!?!

Obviously I knew going in that this movie wasn't going to offer anything more than light low-brow entertainment, but it falls below average for it's niche. Even low-brow humour requires some degree of subtlety and context to work, and those things seem mostly absent in this movie. It's also disappointingly uneventful, so much of the movie is set in the one house where not much progresses. I was hoping the guys' schemes would involve some detours to introduce additional environments and characters, but it never happened. The movie is generally pretty dark too, drawing a lot of it's gags from murder attempts. I guess it's a black comedy, but it's not marketed as such. I think it's inconsistent about what it wants to be. Trust the 7 out of 9 negative reviews on this site and don't waste your time with this movie, unless you enjoyed Big Momma's House.
Rating: - How low can Hollywood go?
In my experience, seeing the words "National Lampoon" in any film title is a bad omen, indicating tastelessness and a dearth of actual comedy up ahead. National Lampoon's Gold Diggers manages to take the series to an all-time low - which, sadly, is no mean feat. Will Friedle and Chris Owen act as if they are auditioning for a future installment of Dumb and Dumber, and the plot suffers from a definite "ick" factor - and, sadly, those are actually the movie's strengths.
Calvin (Friedle) and Leonard (Owen) grew up together in an orphanage and are now trying to make their mark on the world as young adults. They certainly don't want to have to work for a living, so they take up a life of petty crime. They are pitiful failures at this and wind up in jail. Then, two old ladies they accosted on the street bail them out and invite them for a visit in their impressive home. The guys (by which I mean Calvin, as he's the only one really capable of actual human thought) think their hosts are rich, and so it is that they devise a plan to marry them, wait for their imminent deaths, and then live large on their inheritances. Doris (Louise Lasser) and Betty Mundt (Renee Taylor) may be heirs to the Mundt prophylactics fortune, but they are in fact cash poor (thanks to their insane uncle, who is in charge of the Mundt estate). They make their own plans to marry the two young men, purchase sizable insurance policies on them, and then kill them. The double wedding takes place, the marriages are ... Read More
Rating:  - Nasty for a kid
Okay this was funny, but this was so not fgor kids under 15. I have to say it was funny, but really not for children. I`m ten and I just saw this because of my hard work in this concert and I got to pick out a movie and my dad would wrap it up and give it to me, so I wanted this movie because I saw the previews on demand for the unrated one so I got this because the previews looked ok and funny, but this is so disgusting and not for children so I just turned it off and I really want to return it. Please don`t let you child watch this or children under 15 you really don`t want to gross yourselves out on watching this movie. It may look funny, but take my, a ten year olds advice, don`t see it. I`d give it 2 1/2 stars
