USA's Dumbest Movie

"Want to take a look at how stupid some criminals can be? Well, good for you, but this certainly isn't where to start. Yes, this show has [some] scenarios that'll make you laugh when you hear what happened, but the movie has a tendency to drag each one out well beyond its integrity. For one thing, they constantly show the same footage over and over (usually cruddy surveillance takes). It's not uncommon to watch the same clip four times as the narrator explains the situation, then three more times while played with an ugly soundtrack. I was agonized by this repetition, but I also couldn't figure out which was worse: the music or the lame narration. The narrator's humor is so dry and unoriginal I found myself actually groaning aloud in pain. -- And for some reason the DVD doesn't even run for the whole 105 minutes, but I'm not complaining. Oh no.... I'd rather not waste anymore time on this poorly built video. There's bound to be something better than this floating around in TV land."
Dumbest is correct

"For the price I did not believe I could be disappointed,Wrong !!!
Even with repeating the same scenes over three or four times,and adding a Quiz?,this dvd fell short of it 105 minute
running time. This is the only positive I found in {USA'S DUMBEST CROOKS}.
I found little if any humor. Using poor quality surveillance
tapes on most of the dvd & the repetition of such was less then enjoyable"
Very dissapointed

"I remember one evening I went to Hastings Book and Entertainment I saw a DVD of USA's Dumbest Crooks and when I saw the price I couldn't believe my eyes and I instantly went and grabbed it, when I've gotten home I was dissapointed in it and I could've done without them repeating the same footage over and over and I also could've done without the quiz, plus it was nowhere near as long as the DVD claimed it to be, I'm thinking about selling it at a pawnshop and I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't sell well there, please don't waste your time on this excuse for a DVD"
