Flashback Review: The Benchwarmers

2006 had some good comedies including “Idiocracy,” Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny,” “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,” and one of my all-time favorites, “Borat.” Although many movie goers laughed their butts of praising them, they had to endure unfunny stinkers like “The Shaggy Dog,” “Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties” and the […]
