The Benchwarmers (2006)

Jon Heder is back, and Dynamite by any other name is still explosive in this comedy about misfits versus mean jocks. Rob Shneider is the straight man and David Spade is kept to managable doses. So I felt like it was well-balanced. Jon Lovitz also does some pretty fun stuff. While I am not sure whether it would be good if I wasn’t watching it with my brother, I still have fond memories.
There is not a ton of originality, but if you like people finding new ways to show nerdiness and lack of coordination this is a film for you. I especially like how it starts kind of absurd than slowly spins into a hurricane of ridiculousness.
