The luck of the Irish wasn't with this director, or with us guys watching for that matter. What the heck happened to Aniston's nipples, is it just cold on the set of "Friends" or does she stuff grapes down her bra? Regardless of all that, here's a movie befitting a hangover from green beer.
Ten years ago Dan O'Grady returned from Ireland a rich man, wealthy beyond his wildest dreams after taking the Leprechaun's gold. The devious little guy didn't take kindly to losing his loot, after finding the O'Gradys he kills the Mrs. and tortures Dan into having a stroke.
The old coot managed to stuff the midget into a crate, complete with four leaf clover to render him powerless, prior to collapsing. Now Tory's father has purchased the old farm, with Nathan and his pals fixing it up everything is going peachy - until Ozzie brushes the clover off the crate. Out pops the meanest thing under four feet tall you've ever seen, with a sick sense of humor to boot. It's only after Tory finds a four leaf clover and Alex slingshots the lucky charm into his mouth that the Leprechaun is vanquished.
There are some serious blockheads in this movie, Ozzie is first and foremost, though deputy Tripet comes in a close second. He pulls this maniac elf over for driving a Barbie race car down the road, it starts biting the heck out of him... ... so he runs into the woods. Then he throws his police baton at it. Besides killing stupid cops the Leprechaun is always whining about his lost treasure, "Where's meee gooolllddd?" and shining shoes, they actually distract him at one point by tossing dirty footwear his way. Not a very scary movie, but it's goofy as all get out most of the time. |

| Things I Learned From This Movie: | |
|
- Leprechauns are some pissed off little dudes.
- Four leaf clovers are like kryptonite to Leprechaun's.
- Tarantulas are native to North Dakota.
- You can make a boot out of ears.
- There's a rusting truck at the end of a rainbow.
- An operation can fix stupidity.
- Never stick your hand down a hole to grab a feral cat. (Or Leprechaun imitating a feral cat.)
- Leprechauns are carnivorous.
- Pogo sticks are lethal weapons.
- Nobody likes Lucky Charms cereal...
- Four-leaf clovers glow green.

Dad: "You do?"

| Insult adds to injury when the leprechaun uses a pogo stick to punch a couple of holes in this dude's lung. Maybe Warwick needs to lose some weight.

I loved the Leperchaun movis. I think that all of you idiots that say the movie sucked are full of s**t. You just dont know a good movie when you see one. Warwic Davis should get the respect for being such a great actor and having to sit through all the s**t that people say about him and his movies. I mean dude it is like my favorite movie of all time. And just because you dont like the movie dosent mean that you have to diss Warwic.

That... movie... made me never want to eat lucky charms again... And how the hell can you kill someone with a pogo sitck?! All the same, "Leprechaun" was more of a comedy than a horror film.
P.S:"Little girls shouldn't look for four leaf clovers..."

I'm a huge fan of the Leprechaun movies. I love the Irish a lot. Even, Warwick Davis is my new hero. I have 4 Leprechaun DVD's. This movie is one of my favorites. Warwick Davis is so talented, extremely. And, I'm happy to have him as my HERO.

I saw this movie a few months ago. It was weird and a bit creepy. The leprechaun isn't as scary as he should be but when you think about what he does when he catches you, that creeps you out.

I really don't understand how you can say this movie isn't a fun one to watch it's a good comedy...but i don't think that's what the director was going for, and it teaches you that if you want to look badass you need to get someone to tow you behind a jeep and sling yourself through a fence...
