Voll auf die Nüsse (2004)
"Average’s Joe" ist eine altmodische Muckibude, geleitet von Peter Le Fleur. Bank-Anwältin Kate Veatch erklärt Peter, dass dem Fitnessclub die Übernahme durch die Groß-Kette "Globo Gym" droht, wenn nicht innerhalb eines Monats 50.000 Dollar zusammenkommen. Konzernboss White Goodman ist schon ganz heiß drauf, die Kaschemme seines ungeliebten Konkurrenten zu schlucken. Außerdem buhlen die beiden Männer um die Gunst der attraktiven Kate, die sich aber schnell auf die Seite der Underdogs schlägt und den affektierten Goodman abblitzen lässt. Um das Geld doch noch aufzutreiben, haben Le Fleur und seine Freunde eine Idee: Sie wollen bei den World Dodgeball Championships in Las Vegas teilnehmen. Der Sieger des Turniers erhält 50.000 Dollar. Nachdem das Team von "Average Joe’s" mit viel Glück die regionale Vorausscheidung überstanden hat, läuft alles auf den großen Showdown hinaus. Denn Goodman ist ebenfalls mit seinem "Globo Gym"-Team am Start, und das hat sportliches Weltklasse-Niveau..
Der Regisseur: Rawson Marshall Thurber
