Kingpin

"Roy Munson was the state bowling champion in 1979. Unfortunately, soon after he earned that honor, his hand was removed after trying to cheat the wrong guys. For the last 17 years he has been living a very unhappy life selling bowling equipment, with a rubber hand. And now he meets Ishmael, a young Amish man who is a natural born bowler. After convincing Ishmael to come with him and use his talents to win money on the professional bowling circuit to help save his family's farm, the two head out and start winning tournaments. A crude, yet funny, comedy which switches gears about three fourths of the way through and becomes much more serious. Includes a cameo appearance by Blues Traveler during the ending credit sequence."  -Written by Kale Whorton {nikko11@mind.net}

    This shit had me cracking up today. A priceless comedy written by the Farrelly Bro's (Bobby and Peter) with a great cast you don't see anymore; Bill Murray as Ernie McCracken, Woody Harrelson as Ray Munson, Randy Quaid as Ishmael Boorg. It's an entertaining movie filled with unexpected comedic twists, sometimes too unexpected. Rent it!
