| | Professional Reviews | Variety 7 of 10 The post-"Napoleon Dynamite" era is in full swing with Tim Skousen's larky, good-natured "The Sasquatch Dumpling Gang." The influence is obvious and the pedigree is direct, with Skousen having served as assistant director, and producer/co-editor Jeremy Coon holding the same posts on the Fox Searchlight youth-pic phenom. "Napoleon" fans will never admit to it, but "Sasquatch" is funnier, hinging on a bogus Bigfoot sighting and some hilariously stupid dudes...The story structure isn't exactly original, as it dabbles in the Tarantino game that introduces a set of characters, then winds back in time to introduce the next set, until it reaches the present...Skousen's goofy package (which includes business with bully Shane, played with a smirk by Michael Mitchell) leaves the impression of an America filled with Beavises and Butt-Heads -- who some of the thesps mimic vocally. Inevitably, this will make for Comedy Hell for some auds and pure bliss for others. But Skousen and his colorfully assembled cast know precisely what they're doing and who they're playing to...Long and Kern come close to stealing the pic, but Palmer, Land and Sumpter hold their own with some scenes that could become classics with certain vidstore cognoscenti. - Robert Koehler
