Kingpin
Directed by Bobby Farrelly, Peter FarrellyAfter bowler Roy Munson swindles the wrong crowd and is left with a hook for a hand, he settles into impoverished obscurity. That is, until he uncovers the next big thing: an Amish kid named Ishmael. So, the corrupt and the hopelessly naive hit the circuit intent on settling an old score with Big Ern.
Kingpin Ratings & Reviews
- GerardOctober 22, 2025Really funny in moments but think it would have shone with a better pair of leading actors as Bill Murray stands out massively as a supporting role. Definitely worth a watch but could have been great.
- DaveMarch 25, 2025Would have rated it higher but there was not one reference to a Monarchy of pins. No pins with crowns, no clearly established structure of pins with a hierarchy among them. Plus if I'm being honest I felt like there were entirely too many pins. Like if there was a Monarchy of pins established how could we possibly tell which on was king?!
- jackmeatJune 20, 2025My quick rating - 7.0/10. Such a hilarious flick.
- TheProdigalJoelJune 1, 2025Kingpin is a classic cheeseball movie which everyone should watch at least once and if you haven't already where have you been?! For me, it's one of Woody Harrelson's best although I'm sure many would disagree. Without this film we wouldn't have got the likes of Dodgeball, Baseketball etc.
- J. MarshMarch 10, 2025A little rough, but funny and entertaining. We both missed Bill Murray in the middle of the movie, and were enthralled with the final bowling sequence. Awesome show!
