Plot: From the rural town of Preston, Idaho, comes Napoleon Dynamite. With a red 'fro, his moon boots and illegal government ninja moves, he is a new kind of hero. His family consists of fragile brother Kip...( read more read more... ), who's seeking his soul mate in online chat rooms; Uncle Rico, who is stuck in his "glory" days of high school football; and Grandma, who enjoys going out to the dunes on her quad-runner. Napoleon spends his days drawing magical beasts, working on his computer hacking skills to impress the chicks, and begrudgingly feeding his grandma's pet llama. When his friend Pedro decides to run for class president, it is Napoleon to the rescue to help him triumph over adversity.

    The more I see clips and quotes from this movie the more I start to get annoyed by it. But, Napoleon is a new hero to all of us losers and nerds out there.

    Napoleon (Jon Heder, Just Like Heaven) lives with his older brother Kip (Aaron Ruell, Think Tank) and their grandmother. One day, grandma breaks her coccyx and Uncle Rico (Jon Gries, Get Shorty) moves in with the boys for a while until she heals. This proves to be uncomfortable for Napoleon when Uncle Rico's get rich quick schemes impede on his life within Preston High School and his burgeoning friendships with Pedro (Efren Ramirez, Jury Duty) and Deb (Tina Majorino, When a Man Loves a Woman). Pedro decides to ask out the most popular girl in the school to a dance and run for class President, and Napoleon is willing to do what he can to help him win. All three of the leads?newcomer Jon Heder, and experienced actors Efren Ramirez and Tina Majorino?walk this fine line with precision. Curly-headed Heder has received the most attention for his performance, since he's the most visible character of the trio, and praise is certainly due to him. But for me, it was Ramirez's Pedro that won me over. Napoleon Dynamite is likely to be billed as a cult classic.

    I avoided seeing this, because most overly hyped stuff turns out to be a letdown. However, this was truly hilarious.

    I'd rather watch Dumb and Dumberer than this garbage again. Just didn't like any of the characters, they were just pathetic losers it was ridiculous. The filmed seemed a bit funny at first, but then it just got too boring and everything became too lame for me. It seemed as if half the cast decided to act retarded as best as they can and because of that it just wasn't funny for me.
