Nope... 9 years later and this is still hands down the absolute most boring movie I've ever seen. And I'm a fan of Wes Anderson movies, and they're about as spicy as a stale cracker soaked in milk.
This movie had a budget of $400,000, and made over $46 MILLION at the box office worldwide. It's the greatest movie about nothing.

I adore this movie for many reasons - the biggest one being because it actually allows the weirdo/awkward/nerdy characters to be GENUINELY weirdo/awkward/nerdy, as opposed to most mainstream high school movies where the "weirdos" are just hot, clever, charismatic 20-somethings who clearly would be VERY popular in real-life. This movie's genius is that it lets you see exactly why Napoleon and his comrades are all outcasts - and then finds ways to make you like them and root for them anyway.

Its not just the genuine characters either, if you take all the vignette moments individually and look at them singly by themselves, they are the kind of things you'd see in real life, those weird little odd moments that are just 'strange', its just weird in the movie when strung together so closely together... Alot of my friends at school in the 90's were Napoleons and Pedros as such Ive seen some weird stuff, been in some weird stuff, hell ive BEEN the weird stuff, yet at the time you dont even notice it as weird. Unlike me though, Napoleon doesnt care its weird... and for that he's a far better and confident person/friend than I would ever be/was. Everyone's weird, life is just weird in general... this movie condenses it and celebrates it.

Oh thats interesting cos I suspected it was shot later-I noticed some of the characters didnt look the same as before!!
There's a ton of little character bits snuck into this movie that I'm still finding years later. Napoleon is drinking store-brand flavor-aid in an old Gatorade bottle. Kip is using a block of government cheese for his nachos. Pedro and his family are transplants by the Mormon church to fill-out the population of the local community, which is why they so-suddenly show up. Napoleon lives in Idaho which is why his tots are so sought-after. Napoleon is actually training to be a farmer while his brother is leaving the town forever. "La-Fawnduh" is probably the actual spelling of her name considering he met her in a chat room and that makes it all the funnier. Napoleon notices a Sai in the thrift store and this film was set in the early 90's during the Ninja Turtle craze. Also, note Napoleon taking karate lessons like many kids did due to the turtles. Loch Ness was a popular subject of movies from the early 90's as well. Overall the film is an absolute treasure-trove of little details from the early 90's that we may not see in future movies.

After raising whatever animal you chose you could take it to the county fair and try to win a ribbon and sell your animal.

Jon Gries, who plays Uncle Rico, was actually a vegetarian. While shooting the scenes of him eating steak, he would have to spit it out after doing each take. And also, in the scene at 14:34 where he chucks the steak at Napoleon while riding his bike and it hits him in the face. That was actually Jon Gries who threw the steak off-camera. On the final take (The one you see in the movie), Gries threw the steak too excessively at Jon Heder (Napoleon) that it left a bruise on Heder's face afterwards.

So (and sorry for the double comment), but at my college we had an end of year show that included a “pimp strut.” And me, my friend and her gf did an ironic “pimp strut” as Napoleon, Pedro and Deb. I was Deb, complete with side ponytail and fanny pack, and we learned the entire Napoleon Dynamite dance which we did in front of the whole college. It was, to this day, one of THE most awesome performances I’ve ever been a part of. My only regret is that we didn’t have a Kip to complete the vibe.

I actually met Jon Heder at a ComicCon a few years ago. He was super cool and very generous with his time. And he autographed my DVD of the movie which I watch at least once or twice year.
Honestly, I googled this movie after I saw it to see who made it, because I genuinely thought it was based on a kid I went to school with in the 90s. Everything about Napoleon is exactly like my old school friend. Even down to the drawings of Ligers and making up stuff about having "numchucks" in his locker.
Napoleon's dance at the end is too iconic! Soo glad you guys reacted to this one!
Love that you're watching this!!! That dance scene is the GOAT!!! Great reaction!
I can't believe that when you listed all of Napolean's accomplishments during this film, you failed to mention that he tamed a honeymoon stallion.
I don't know why, but every time I watch this movie, it's like a surprise how hilarious it is. I always laugh for a couple days. That scene with the farmer, his shotgun , the cow, and the school bus absolutely kills me every time.
loved this reaction..Kip and La Fawn Duh are the funniest thing in this movie, but there's so many one liners that this movie is a rewatch periodically for sure.

This movie was quoted so much in my high-school back in 2004. Mad props for this one.
So glad to see this and I needed some Napoleon dance this Friday night. Thanks! (a mom)
My favorite part of this movie is the opening credits with the food and the names written in ketchup and mustard and stuff. It’s a great way to make the best out of a shoestring budget. I read that the budget for this movie was $400,000 in early 2000’s money. That’s impressive. Some of the best films ever made were shot on a shoestring budget, like Monty Python and the Holy Grail. That movie was shot on a budget of £200,000, in 1974.
This movie is such a classic. I’ll watch this any day. It’s got such a nice vibe to it

@@Cassxowary I'm sorry but it's not realistic at all but it's a great movie regardless.
I remember when this movie came out. Everyone and their mother was talking about it and we thought it was fucking hilarious (which, it still is). The amount of times I heard kids in school imitating Napoleon during that scene where he eats the tots in class. 😆 I also remember there were actually rumors that Jon Heder, the actor who plays Napoleon, had died after this movie was made which, of course, wasn't true.
This movie came when I was in high school and after it came out EVERYONE was quoting this movie and taking on Napoleons “uh gosh” inflections and character. Also “make yourself a dang quesadilla, Napoleon”! It’s so awkwardly hilarious…
They actually made this into an animated TV series on Fox I believe and 'vote for Pedro' t-shirts were very popular and you may still see them around still today. Napoleon Dynamite was a cultural phenomena for a minute there.
Napoleon Dynamite introduced me to Jamiroquai (Canned Heat) 🤘
The part where the wife is disappointed in her husband not being able to tear that plastic bowl gets me everytime!
I LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCHHHH it hits you right in the nostalgia
This movie came out my senior year of high school and when we had superhero day, one of my classmates dressed up as Napoleon--Vote for Pedro shirt, jeans, moon boots, curly hair and glasses. I hadn't seen the movie yet, but it was hilarious. Then I saw the movie, and it just was so off-the-wall that I loved it.
The best part of this movie is that final dance, it was completely improvised by John Heder. Apparently he danced to 3 songs and the director cut it to the moves they liked. Another John Heder movie I'd recommend is School for Scoundrels with Billy Bob Thornton.
Napoleon Dynamite is forever an all time classic 😂
Napoleon Dynamite came out around my senior year of High School and you couldn't go 60 seconds without someone quoting it. Most of the time probably by me.
The first time I watched this movie I didn't get it, but I watched it again and it was hilarious. Great reaction guys. FYI napoleon didn't steal Pedro's girl, rember deb went to napoleon 's house and left her box of trinkets there, Deb actually liked napoleon. Pedro, just wasn't afraid of rejection. Miracles and blessings to you and yours.✌💜.
At the time of this movie (partnered by MTV Films), you could actually buy those 'Vote for Pedro' t-shirts. Love the movie and I think so many people can relate to being the awkward/nerdy in school.
