i saw this on TV late one night and tuned in based on the name alone. i figured with a name like Queer Duck: The Movie it would be a fun movie that didn't take itself to seriously. For it's campy gay humour, it's enjoyable. There are some serious flaws in it however. It starts off fun. The opening sequence is entertaining and the names might make you smirk (Openly Gator, Oscar Wildcat etc...) but after that, it slowly goes downhill. The most irritating thing in the whole movie is the animation. Web cartoon-grade movement where the eyebrows seem to just bounce around at every word while the mouth attempts to match the dialogue (spoiler alert...it never does) The jokes are more miss than hit and one joke is just stolen off an episode of Family Guy (it's like a friend telling the same joke only with added gay animals) All in all, don't bother buying it on DVD but if you see it on TV, you could do a lot worse 3/10

You would think, with the voice talent in this movie, that it would be at least a little funny. 90% of this cast has made me laugh out loud at least once. Maybe, MAYBE it's funnier if you're gay but I like to think that gay people have better sense of humor than this. It's full of silly puns, old messages and tired stereotype jokes. South Park has done more credit to people who are homosexual.I have considered that if someone has a different sexual orientation, maybe they also have a different comic orientation but I don't think this is a case of humor being different, as if written in a language other than my "straight" tongue. I get the jokes, Michael Jackson looks like an old woman, Judy Garland is Queen of the Gays and Cher is just an endless source of fabulous humor. How many Evil Christian Preacher characters have we seen before? I've just heard it all before and it was funnier and better said the first time. I mean, look at the movie "But I'm a Cheerleader" about a girl who goes off to a straight reprogramming camp. Same theme but funny!

I Bought the DVD because i heard all the rage about this Queer Duck so I went to wal mart and bought it for 14 bucks watched it when i got home and i absolutely loved it from beginning to end. From celebrity jokes to gay jokes the movie was terrific. The voice actors were amazing and Mike Reiss sure does know how to entertain people this is a great movie that has to be bought not rented. It was nice to see Mark Hamill, Tim Curry and David Duchovny doing silly cartoon voices like Tiny Jesus. I Laughed my ass off when i saw this it has to be the best independent film ever made right next to Klay World. so i give this movie 10 stars for great voice acting, great animation, wonderful jokes and terrific music.

This film is the cartoon story of a gay duck, his life, his loves and his adventures. He marries a diva, he tries sexual behavior modification therapy with a Christian fundamentalist, buys an amusement park, and generally lives it up.That's the general plot, but this film is an absolute riot. Loaded with gags, parody, puns, double entendres, etc. Musical and dance numbers galore. Fabulous guest appearances by the stars we know and love. I laughed until it hurt. There are no words that can adequately describe this film, and all I can really say about it is if you like mad cap humor, this one's for you. NOT a profound statement about the gay experience. And buy the DVD -- you can order it on Amazon.Guest appearances by Michael, Barbra, Liz, and the usual suspects.P.S. To Wayne who wrote the pejorative comments about my review: I had absolutely nothing to do with the making of this film, I do not know anyone who made this film, and I have not received any incentives, financial or otherwise, to promote it. I saw it in a packed auditorium with a seating capacity of 1,407. No one walked out during the screening, and most of the audience was laughing as much as I was. I'll admit it's goofy humor, but duh! it's a cartoon.
