Midgets Vs. Mascots

Midgets vs Mascots is just one of those films that isn’t for everyone. I could see how it could easily offend many people, and there are times it is just plain disgusting. It has received several negative reviews since it’s release in 2009, but I personally loved the film. As soon as I saw the title of the film, I knew I was going to love it! The film is best described as a low-budget Borat meets Jackass. There are several scenes in which it is obvious that the crowd is not in on the mischief (one of which being on the proper slang term for black people). However, due to the low-budgetness, there are also several scenes that are clearly doctored to look more shocking than they really are. But it’s OK, they make up for it with the slapstick, and crude, off-color jokes. I am not going to give away much about the title here, as this is one of those films that the surprise is part of the enjoyment. The film is basically a competition against 5 midgets, and 5 mascots, each of which will win $1,000,000 if there team is the winner. The contest is being held to decide the fate of the inheritance of “Big Red,” a porn director that started his career as a mascot, and just so happened to be a little person. He came up with the idea for the contest to prove a point to his normal-sized son, and his gold-digger wife.
