Perfect cast and a good story

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Since watching this movie last evening I've been trying to decide what audience it was made for. All I can come up with was 30-40-something and stoned. I'm sorry, the humour was so sophomoric, simple, and just plain un-funny it's border-line unbearable. I shamefully resisted the urge to shut it off after the first scene, and in hindsight I'd be a better person if I had. The reason I stuck it out is that the acting, with a few notable exceptions, is actually not terrible. Gotta feel for an actor who has this atrocity on their resume.

Not only is this film disgusting, offensive and vulgar, but it's also just plain dumb. I mean c'mon, isn't a naked nerd getting called a pedophile and chased by an equally pedophilic clown just a little bit juvenile? I don't mean to sound like a prude or a snob, but penis jokes and sex jokes stopped being funny when I was in the ninth grade. Mental hospitals and lazy stereotypes of the many patients within one just aren't funny to me. Neither is a man having a sexual fetish for paralyzed and disabled people. Have I missed something here? The one and only scene I really enjoyed in this film was the one where a psychologist and a patient have an air hockey match and the orderlies are placing bets. Julian Richings is an excellent actor, I don't know why on earth he'd sign up to be in a film like this one. With its Troma style, its lame jokes and its cheap digital footage that looks like Toronto stock footage shots, 'You Might As Well Live' is I think one of the worst things I've seen in quite some time.

Robert Mutt is NOT a douche!!! Seriously, and as one may plainly see, it's the neighbors and just about all the others giving Robert Mutt a bad time. OK, Robert's really, really, really, really dumb. But at least he's not a mean spirited, dishonest, ignoble miscreant as most of the people portrayed in this film; with some notable exceptions!Robert Mutt is not too smart!!! Seriously, if he was, he might not be so kind towards the previously mentioned neighbors and others giving Robert Mutt a bad time. -------STORY w/SPOILERS-------- Nobody is going to spoil this movie for you no matter what they write because this kooky low budget movie is over the top. *Some* angry or boorish folk may not like it; certainly the vulgar vernacular throughout warrants strict parental advisory consideration (not for children), but for you guys and gals out there that like really funny strange humor, this movie delivers some serious absurdities and played well enough to make you lol many times over. I liked it! Robert Mudd, what a character...

Too many Napoleon Dynamite references might get tired talking about this movie, but if you can picture a sequel written & directed by John Waters in which Napoleon is now 32, suicidally depressed, and falsely accused of pedophilia (but, in a funny way) before being chased full-frontal naked through town by an angry mob, that's how awesome-tastic this movie is. And that's just the first 10 minutes! It's not a perfect 10; it achieves high on spectacle and average on truth. But wow... finally, a bunch of filmmakers who think life in Canada is cool and awful and funny and sucks just the same as it does everywhere else in the world, and who think Canadians are just as horrible and kind and despicable and silly as everybody else in the world.SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILERSpeaking critically, it swaps tones cavalierly, and the easier jokes cut down the bite and sting of the much darker and fantastically awesomer comedy about Robert, a depressed loner groping blindly without any aid or support to overcome his confusion regarding his childhood sexual abuse at the hands (and mouth, probably) of his Cub Scout troop leader and next door neighbor, the odious, resolute, and sexually compelled Mr. Steinke. The topic is never explicitly addressed (or maybe "implicitly expressed"?), but that's my read on it, and I think the screenplay has more than enough moments of proof to point out. My interpretation: Robert is a gentleman and gentle man who's (whose?) life has been ruined because he had the great misfortune to be born next-door to Mr. Steinke. How could innocent little Robert have ever known that running through the lawn sprinkler would entice and seduce this trusted adult? Answer: HE COULDN'T HAVE! He's innocent and has done nothing wrong to deserve this bogeyman in his subconscious! Too gentle to be angry about the situation, Robert wrestles over and over to straighten out his life, but is constantly unsuccessful until the stronger, tougher, and more experienced Dixie, having been enchanted by Robert's innocence, kindness, and gallantry towards others, rushes in to save the day and pistol-whip the cuss out of the barbarian monster ravaging Robert's metaphorical countryside.I wanted to title this post "The Funniest Movie About Childhood Sexual Abuse Ever Made", but I don't want to spoil people's pleasure in making up their own interpretation of this dark and sweet story and character.
