Let's Go To Prison (2006)

Directed by: Bob Odenkirk
Written by: Robert Ben Garant, Thomas Lennon, Michael Patrick Jann, and Jim Hogshire.
Tagline: Welcome to the slammer.
Starring: Dax Shepard, Will Arnett, and Chi McBride.


This movie is hilarious and fun. It makes prison look awesome. Okay, well, not so much.
Will Arnett and Dax Shepard make a great team. I love how Dax's character secretly hates Will's character but in the end they both become BFF's.

My favourite parts were any parts with the one-on-one action between Will Arnett and Chi McBride; just hilarious. I also loved the part where Will and Dax "kill" each other in the end, and then they dig each other up.
The end credits are just so simple, but laughable. I love those three guys singing to Move This by Technotronic. The prison act in which they use that same song was totally cheesy but it increased the film's comedic state just a little higher.

This film is really underrated. I bet that not many people have seen it. But I recommend it if you haven't seen it. I'd totally watch it again. It's worth quite a few giggles.

4/5 Stars ****

Review by Crystal

I Love Will Arnett to death! He is the sexiest, non-sexy guy I have ever seen. Ever. His voice makes me melt. And Dax Shepard is a babe. They are great together. Chi McBride is just scary.

I love Technotronic. I remember the first time I saw this movie, Will Arnett's character, Nelson, is listening to Move This in the car and all I could think of was "please sing, please sing" and when he started singing, I was like "YES!" It was awesome. And the fact that it replayed over and over again in the movie was wicked.

I love Will Arnett's little creepy beard that makes him look like a pedophile. speaking of looking like a pedophile, this movie reminds me of Arrested Development (another show Will Arnett was in) where Tobias goes to prison to become a better actor and ends up killing the "top dog" and became the new top dog. For some reason the other inmates call him Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. Nelson killed the Top Dog in this movie as well and became the Head Honcho.

I love how in the end Dax and Will become BFF again, making toilet wine together with creepy Chi. Super awesomely underwatched movie ever!

3/5 Stars ***
