Summary: Based on a non-fiction novel by an ex-convict about how to stay out of jail (and/or survive it once you know you're headed upriver), Let's Go To Prison is an uncompromising, no-hold-barred revenge comedy. This prison movie takes a fresh, probing look at our penal system -- rife with plenty of sweet, cloistered, man love. (Universal)

"A comedy of tremendous miscalculation that doesn't even have the conviction of its own stupidity." - Rob Humanick

Regardless of how stupid the movie is, and it's pretty stupid, I still laughed throughout. I'm a big fan of Will Arnett and he delivers in this movie. More surprisingly Dax Shepard, who I've never been that big of a fan of, really brought it as well and the chemistry of the two was great.

Firmly entrenched between legitimate comedy and "guilty pleasure" status, Will Arnett and Chi McBride both make their fairly cliché characters their own, and the predictable elements are totally redeemed by the crazy plot directions. A lot better than I expected it to be.

Bob Odenkirk plus Will Arnett equals comedy gold, right? Couldn't be more wrong in this case, thanks to a script by State alums Ben Garant and Thomas Lennon, who are pretty funny, but can't write for shit (see also: Taxi, The Pacifier, etc.), and professional untalented douche Dax Shepard (whose only redeeming role was Idiocracy. Let's Go to Prison falls flat at every opportunity. How Odenkirk and Arnett would go on to collaborate on the very enjoyable Brothers Solomon remains a mystery.

This movie was horrible. I watched this because I am a fan of Will Arnett. This was a terrible idea for a movie and it should have never been made. This movie definitely lacked laughs.

The best part is that this movie actually feels pretty authentic while remaining a comedy. The worst part is that it seems to boil down to "rape is funny: the movie".

I love anything Will Arnett does, and I think Bob Odenkirk is awesome. So ... what happened? They didn't even try to make jokes, they just put Will Arnett's character in uncomfortable situations for what seemed like an eternity.

A very decent comedy. Though the plot is a little screwy, the humour is unpredictable, and just really hilarious at times. But for the most part, it's just an average comedy.

I must be crazy, because I laughed pretty much nonstop through this movie. Dax Shepard and Will Arnett were fucking top notch. I personally think they're both great actors, and work well together in this comedy.

Interesting choice to cast Shepard and Arnett in a comedy then not let them be funny. A few of chuckles here and there, mostly coming from Chi McBride. Not enough laughs for a comedy and not enough substance for anything else.

Funny cast, but I think if you removed all the jokes that revolve around rape and the threat of rape, this movie would be about 50 minutes.

A comedy should be funny, right? I didn't even laugh until about an hour into the movie, and not much after that. It seems like a five minute idea stretched into an hour and a half long film. Really bad.

A fun revenge comedy that stays smart without veering into simple slapstick or gross-out moments, Let's Go To Prison is, alas, let down by a plot that can't quite match up to the nice interplay between its stars and its very funny script. It's clever, but not as clever as it wants to be.

I'm happy to see that Bob Odenkirk is capable of directing a decent movie. It isn't fantastic but entertaining and it has plenty of laughs especially if you think it's funny when assholes are suffering in awful situations.

Chi McBride carries this mediocre comedy. Sadly, Will Arnett is exposed as being funny, but unable to rise above the material and Dax Sheppard is atrocious, which is part for the course for Dax Sheppard.

Altenate title: G.O.B. Goes to Jail. I was pretty baked when I saw this, and it made me laugh. Some of the jokes are obvious and flop, but others work well. Chi McBride's scenes for example, cliche as they might be, are quite funny simply because he wills them to be so. The ridiculous soundtrack that rolls whenever he's on screen and just his sheer presence as a performer make me giggle. Arnett is hysterical, and the movie rides on his appeal during its best moments. Better than expected.
