Any Levinson fan should check this film out. Sure its your typical stupid comedy, but thats exactly what its intended to be. Anyone who enjoyed Toys or Bandits will probably enjoy this film.Sure its not the greatest, but I do believe it is worth watching. Even from a directing standpoint its a pretty decent film.The two main characters, Jack Black (Nick Vanderpark) and Ben Stiller (Tim Dingman) play complete opposites. From the first moment of the film you begin to see the differences between their lives. I found all of these little differences entertaining to watch.Don't believe the reviews or what others are saying....go see it for yourself and find out.6.5 out of 10

Was the script more fitting for a 30 minute sitcom? Yes, but they still make it work! I thought the actors did a fantastic job with an otherwise bland script, especially Jack Black and Christopher Walken. Most people on the board seem to really hate this film. I personally can't see how that could be, but Envy is just one of those film that you either love it or hate it. Much like Napoleon Dynamite and every Leslie Neilsen movie ever made. You either think it's one of the worst movies ever made or one of the funniest. Don't avoid this movie because of the reviews. Watch it and see if you're one of the ones who really like it! If you do, I guarantee it's worth your money. If you don't like it... well, now you know.

I forgot about this movie, bought a copy in a goodwill this weekend, and totally remembered loving it. I'd give this a 7/10 because it's not only rewatchable, but one of my favorite Jack Black movies. It's tied along side Be Kind Rewind.Sit back. Smoke a bowl, and have fun!
