Grab your gym shorts and some extra padding cuz Dodgeball hits theaters on June 18, 2004. This rock 'em, sock 'em flick stars Ben Stiller (who plays White Goodman) and Vince Vaughn (who plays Peter LeFleur) as rival gym owners.

Find out if this is the movie you should be checking out!
Dodgeball - Grab Life by the Ball
Dodgeball - a game where you pit the
strong against the weak and get them to hurl
rubber balls at each other. It's never fair and it's guaranteed that we all have a
dodge ball horror story. Well, Dodgeball the movie isn't all that different from those painful
gym class games. Average Joes is
going bankrupt and the only way they can save their beloved gym is to come up with
$50,000 - fast. So, how does this
group of losers decide to do it? Play at the
National Amateur Dodgeball Association Championships in Las Vegas!
Dodgeball - High Flying Fun
There are some pretty
funny scenes in Dodgeball. Ben Stiller's character, White Goodman, is so
slimy and annoying you just want to
punch him. But it's his lame attempts at winning the heart of Kate Veatch that make for some of the
hilarious parts. Plus, what could be funnier than watching a bunch of grown-ups play a sport
made for school-children?
Dodgeball - Ouch! That Hurts
While Dodgeball does have some pretty
great one-liners, they are kind of few and far between. You'll definitely get some laughs out of this flick, but it's not Ben or Vince's
best performance. Some of the characters are
pretty nerdy and their quirkiness works for a bit - but by the end of the movie you really just want the guy who
talks like a pirate to be knocked out by a
dodge ball.
Dodgeball - DVD Features
If there wasn't enough Dodgeball fun in the movie for ya, you'll have to check out the DVD. You'll be able to check out tons of
deleted scenes that are just as funny as the rest of the flick. Learn
how to play dodgeball with a
step-by-step tutorial, watch all the bloopers and listen to commentary throughout the movie from funny guys,
Ben Stiller and
Vince Vaughn. If you're a fan of
slap-stick comedy, this is the DVD for you!
Dodgeball - And the Winner Is...
Dodgeball is the kind of flick you might wanna go to with a
bunch of your pals on a
Sunday afternoon, but you definitely don't want to waste a Friday night watching this one. If you're dying for a Ben Stiller fix, go out and rent
Zoolander - it's much funnier.
