Beer, broads and softball combine with hilarious results in ARTIE LANGE'S BEER LEAGUE, an over-the-top comedy about a group of misfits whose weekly softball games descend more into fights for macho dominance than making home runs. Starring Artie Lange and Ralph Macchio. When love enters his life (Cara Buono), it unexpectedly alters Artie's low self-esteem; and the odds for winning—not only the league trophy but a new life—are considerably amped along with the comedy and chaos.
This is a film that isn't for everyone,if you don't like blue collar type sports comedies..you may want to skip this.Surprisingly well acted this comedy really gives you a glimpse into softball beer leagues all around the Tristate(NJ,NY,Conn.) area..some people here seem to rate this movie negatively because they dont like Howard Stern(or Artie Lange on the Stern show) or they follow other lame morning radio shows but you can always rent this film and judge it for yourself.

I'm a huge Stern fan and saw this opening weekend. I laughed so much that I was in tears and my face and stomach hurt. This movie's not for everyone, but if you love raunchy, politically incorrect, nothing is sacred comedy, then you'll love this movie.

I went to see this film, and laughed all the way through it. I took a friend who had never heard of Artie, and he laughed harder than I did. The writing is sharp, the jokes are cruel but effective, and portions of the film are so true-to-life that they look almost like a documentary.
This movie took a lot of flak from certain critics... who wouldn't know a good time if it bounced a ping pong ball off their head.

This movie didn't get the wide release it deserved. Horrible comedies are released nationally every month and very few have more laughs than Beer League. It just may end up gaining some post-DVD release notoriety, such as "Office Space" did a few years ago. This movie needs to be judged *as a comedy*. That is to say, it really isn't fair to criticize the intricacies of the plot. Take it for what it is: A good, raunchy, R-Rated comedy with enough great one liners and sight gags to entertain you for 90 minutes.
When Ralph Macchio's character orders an overly healthy lunch in front of his regular-guy Jersey buddies, who wouldn't laugh when Artie says, "In Massachusetts that order could marry a dude."?
By the way, it's easy to spot the Opie And Anthony losers that have come here to crap on this. They're the ones speaking broken English and have "Hoo Hoo" somewhere in their name or message.

For the purposes of my review of Beer League, I want you to forget about Howard Stern - more to the point, don't judge your potential enjoyment of this movie based on your dislike of the infamous shock jock. I for one do not care for Stern (and I had no idea Artie Lange was ever involved with the radio show), but I pretty much loved this movie. Sure, it's tasteless and juvenile and has to rank near the top in terms of its curse words per minute average (the MPAA's R rating is based on "non-stop language" among other things), but you know what? I say this is all about boys being boys - Jersey boys being Jersey boys, to be more exact. As a proud Southerner, I'm not naturally drawn to full-fledged Yankees, but you can't help but feel a kinship with real, 100% men like Artie and his gang who concentrate on the three B's: brewskis, baseball (or softball), and babes.
You know how some guys never grow up? Well, that's Artie DeVanzo in a nutshell. He's a thirty-something, beer-guzzling, unemployed lazy slob who lives with his mother (Roseanne's Laurie Metcalf) and is still all caught up in a high school rivalry with the slick and slimy Dennis Mangenelli (Anthony DeSando). Things get especially heated between their respective softball teams. This year, the police chief has had enough of breaking up the annual fisticuffs, so he decrees that whichever team finishes behind the other one will be thrown out of the beer league. This puts Artie and his buddies at quite a disadvantage, as they really aren't very good. Artie himself likes to smoke and drink out on the field. After an 0-5 start, though, the guys decide they might need to actually practice if they want to make a miracle comeback and give themselves a chance to knock out Mangenelli's team in the championship game.Read more ›

Grab your bottle of Jack and box of Devil Dogs. This soon to be "cult-classic" will make you crack up and roll on the floor laughing. This movie is not going to win any awards. Yet it will be a movie that you will cherrish when you are drunk or just need a good lighthearted movie. Special bonus for the "pitching machine". This is a MUST SEE for Howard Stern fans.

Pending who your trust for movie reviews, similar tastes and interests, sense of humor, my response that it wasn't as good story or humor wise as it was lead up to be. Purchased and viewed it, traded it in at my local movie store 2 days later.....

If you're in the mood for a raunchy bad-language film about a bunch of softball-playing guidos from New Joisey, you can't do better than this little gem! Artie Lange wrote this movie and every 4th or 5th line is a joke. Who needs a complicated plot, when you've got this many jokes! There's got to be at least 30-40 laugh-out-loud lines in the movie....I stopped counting and just enjoyed it!
It looks like everyone had a good time making this one including veteran actor and Oscar nominee Seymour Cassel who is one of several scene stealers present.
The movie despite re-creating the actual raunchy language these athlete wannabes use, is quite sweet at heart...congrats to Artie and his director.
Beer League is not for the easily offended due to its constant adult language and situations. Nonetheless, if you have a good sense of humor and love a good raunchy joke.....this one is a Home Run & due to become some kind of comedy cult classic! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
