About Blackballed: The Bobby Dukes Story

Paintball’s first superstar, Bobby Dukes (Rob Corddry of "The Daily Show"), and his team the River Rats were competing for their fourth "Classic" victory when disaster struck. Bobby, attempting one of his signature moves, was shot. Desperate to stay in the game, Bobby intentionally wiped the paint from his jersey, thus committing paintball’s most heinous crime, "wiping." The three-time champ was banned from the game for ten years and became the laughing stock of the paintball community. Deemed a cheater, disgraced and humiliated, Bobby disappeared.

Ten years later an older and wiser Bobby returns to reclaim his title and erase the memory of his tainted past. On the verge of giving up hope, Bobby joins forces with the most unlikely of allies; the referee that caught him cheating. Now, the two improbable partners must recruit a team of paintball misfits and take back the Hudson Valley Paintball Classic.

rating: 4 QuoteIt's a MockumentaryQuote
This is a great movie for those who get it. Go into it knowing that you're going to be watching a Mockumentary and you won't be disappointed. August 6, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteGreat MovieQuote
I couldn't stop laughing at the review below actually criticizing this move for paintball technicalities. This movie is a fantastic, very smart comedy making fun of the "sport" of paintball. Genius writing and a talented cast combine for one of the best movies I've seen in years. June 17, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteClearly Not For Randy GivenQuote
If you have trouble discerning a mockumentary from a documentary then you should by all means stay away from this movie. . . I'm looking at you Randy Givens, Mr. I-gave-this-movie-1-star-because-I-thought-it-was-real. But if your brain is working above the level of a newborn then by all means check out this hilarious mockumentary. If you're a fan of The Daily Show, The Upright Citizens Brigade or Human Giant, then this is a must-see treat for you. Rob Riggle will have you in stitches. March 27, 2008

rating: 5 Quote1st Class Mock-UmentaryQuote
It took me a few minutes to figure out that this wasn't a real documentary. This film features a wry kind of humor and its low budget demeanor is actually a plus. I thought it was very entertaining and at times hilarious. This one is 5 stars all the way. December 14, 2007

rating: 3 QuoteNot a total chopped ballQuote
The budget for this movie wasn't high at all. Keeping that in mind it wasn't bad but some of the acting had room for improvement. There are a couple funny parts in the movie that a few friends and I bring up now and then. I am a paintball player. September 17, 2007
