Reviews for Jiminy Glick in LaLaWood
[It] will probably only attract those fans who think the character was amusing in the first place. The rest of us will have our prejudices regarding this obnoxious creation confirmed by this lame effort.

Martin Short himself is one of the funniest men alive, or can be, and has been. But Jiminy Glick needs definition if he's to work as a character.
05/05/05
Top CriticWedding a fairly complex mystery with show-biz satire against the real-life festival backdrop requires more structure and maybe more scripted scenes.
05/06/05
There’s a sycophantic nature to the movie (Short shows off his celebrity friends) that prevents the observations from being fierce enough to attain true wit.
05/02/05
The film's humor generally falls flat, and its tone becomes self-congratulatory. Not that congratulations are in order.

Those who wouldn't know the difference between Corey Feldman and Corey Haim, and couldn't care less, will care even less than that about this movie.
05/06/05
So, yeah, this is a terribly flawed film. Then again, it's a film featuring Jiminy Glick; nobody's really expecting much.

Here's hoping Short's next project is more worthy of the guy's skills, because this Jiminy Glick character grows real old, real fast.

This Glick flick balloons from sketch comedy to feature film -- and you can see the stretch marks from the strain.

It didn’t work. There’s not a movie here.

The great junket whore movie is still awaiting to be made. But Jiminy Glick In Lalawood is a step in the right direction.
05/05/05
In his curdled-butterball way, Jiminy Glick may be the most acidic showbiz send-up since Andy Kaufman's Tony Clifton.

There's a method to the madness after all.

I did find myself laughing at times, and if you are a Jiminy Glick fan, you will too.

It is almost guaranteed one's enjoyment of "Lalawood" will depend on how much arcane knowledge of Hollywood and cinema one has.

Glick isn’t... satisfying as satire...
05/13/05
Short's fans should wait for the DVD, where they can skip to the good scenes, which amount to 24 minutes of ace material -- perhaps not coincidentally, the same length as an old SCTV episode.
