DVD Reviews of Strike
DVD Review: Oh so so so bad
Summary: 1 Stars
Strike is nowhere near bad enough to be really funny. Sadly, this film is just bad and not terribly funny. The acting so sad.
Two loser / slacker actor wannabes work in a pizza delivery restaurant, Oscarz Pizza. Ha ha, get it, Oscar, as in the Academy Award Oscar. When they deliver pizzas, they deliver the award and the recipient gives an acceptance speach. Yeah, its as funny as the real thing, nowhere even close to funny. Tara Reid is the girlfriend or wife (that's not clear at all) of one of these slackers. And one night slackers number one has the idea to go bowling. Slacker number 2 is apparently very good at bowling, but who knew? By random chance, a Professional Bowling Association person is in the alley; and invites Slacker number 2 to join the tour. Yes it is hilarious. The three decide to go on the PBA tour, but first he has to bowl 36 league rated games and average over 240. Oh the devil to do that in one week. He has to blend in with the leagues he's bowling in. Old people, in da hood hispanics and african americans...oh so funny. The real laughs begin when they make it to the tour. I just don't want to spoil the funny moments by describing what miraculously happens.
There are many reasons to think this might be a movie worth watching. Parody of the PBA. Tara Reid is in the movie. You are a Ross Patterson or Clayne Crawford fan. There's some odd cameos. Or you liked the cover art and thought this might be a spring break, summer drive in, kind of movie. Well it is absolutely none of those things. Nope on the PBA parody, Tara Reid is not in it that much, I'm sorry if you are a Ross or Clayne fan, and there's virtually no jiggle in this movie (that cover art is never recreated anywhere in the film - although the actress holding those bowling balls has a fairly minor part at the end of the film).
There isn't much to recommend this film. All the acting is bad. The jokes get set up and then there's no punch line; or the joke keeps going long after the punch line. There's no jiggle factor. The bowling segments are awful.
Pass on this stinker.

Description of Strike
Ross is an out-of-work actor, minimum wage pizza delivery drone, and a really good bowler. His animal-care girlfriend Lindsay has just been fired for causing a crazed penguin orgy. But when their stoner roommate suggests they hit the highway as polyester pimps ?Ross Vegas? and ?Lil? Reno?, the trio takes the alleys and gutters of the professional bowling tour by storm. Will the pressures of stardom now split their friendship forever or is that just how a playa rolls? Strike is a comedy about big balls, best buds and the cutthroat world of badass bowling.Ross is an out-of-work actor, minimum wage pizza delivery drone, and a really good bowler.
