 1/5 |
Desperately unamusing comedy that lurches clumsily from one tedious spoof to the next, under the mistaken impression that just referencing a film is enough to get laughs. Full Review |

Epic in its crapness. Full Review |

The most excruciating, unfunny film you'll see this year… if not your entire lifetime. Full Review |

|
1.5/4 |
It plays out like an overlong Comedy Central skit lurching for the next laugh without any remorse for the gross misfires in between. Full Review |

2/5 |
Maybe these movies are popular, but it seems they just keep getting more inane with each variation on the theme. Full Review |

just a pastiche of pop culture crap that's formed into a monstrous bastard of unfunny physical comedy, awful acting, and jokes that are outright flat on delivery... Full Review |

The parody is not a bad genre, as the early Zucker films showed us. It's just been put in the control of bad filmmakers. Full Review |

This one is a typical time-waster for teenagers or others with disposable income and underdeveloped taste. Full Review |

|
1.5/5 |
This movie is like a sneeze of bad jokes splattering its germs into the air we all breathe. Full Review |

|
2/4 |
There's very little that's Epic about Epic Movie. While the film has plenty of fun, it's little more than a late-night comic sketch stretched to feature length. Full Review |

Next to Epic Movie and Date Movie, the Scary Movies are French cuisine. Full Review |

...another perfect storm of not funny. Full Review |

Friedberg and Seltzer's most staggering achievement is rendering "Epic Movie" free from laughs. Full Review |
||
|
0/6 |
The gutter-brow auteurs who helped write the first Scary Movie and created Date Movie milk their lame sketch-comedy minds for yet another punishingly uninspired skewering of Hollywood hits. Full Review |

0/5 |
Friedberg and Seltzer are completely tone-deaf when it comes to the art of film parody, conjuring none of the adolescent brilliance of Airplane! or even the good-natured irony of 2001's Not Another Teen Movie. Full Review |

When you start thinking that the Taco Bell pitchwoman is perhaps too good for the material, you know the script has some serious problems. Full Review |
