According to The New York Post it "may be the least amusing comedy ever made," and Lawrence Van Gelder of The New York Times described the movie as "a series of sketches built around subjects like masturbation, defecation, alienation, urination, necrophilia, voyeurism, casual brutality, and mockery of the unfortunate." The film led to several lawsuits such as Offer's copyright-infringement suit against Peter and Bobby Farrelly and Twentieth Century Fox, which was dismissed, and his breach of contract suit against actress Anna Nicole Smith which he won. After the movie was a flop Offer decided to put the trailer on an infomercial, and sold 50,000 copies via direct order.
