I really liked Napoleon Dynamite. Yes, it is stupid, but so stupid that it becomes funny.

Right away the movie was different. The opening credits were unlike any I’ve ever seen before. Most movies do the opening credits with computers and graphics, but MTV came up with something new for this one. Each name/credit was on some type of food with a different carpet used as a background each time. For instance, a hand came into the picture with an open hamburger on a plate. On the hamburger, written in mustard was the credit. It was a pretty neat idea.

You’ve probably heard many people talk about how dumb Napoleon Dynamite is. I won’t argue there. The plot and characters are so out of place that it makes you laugh. I’ll admit that I was laughing my ass off in several parts. Two of my favorites had to be when Napoleon took the bike jump and when he fell off the fence. Just great scenes.

Many people won’t like this movie, but it was a nice change from the “normal” movies. How do I grade it though? It really is a horrible movie as far as content, but I think that’s what made it so enjoyable. You really have to appreciate the movie for what it is. I’ll give it a B just because I can’t give it a high grade or a low one.
