Epic Movie (2007)

Another Hilarious Spoof!!!

Like I've said before, you need a great sense of humor to appreciate these types of movies! This movie is very funny! It makes fun of Willy Wonka, Chronicles of Narnia, Da Vinci Code, Snakes on a Plane, Borat, etc. If you love spoofs, you'll love EPIC MOVIE!!! July 12, 2008

Junk food for the brain

I don't normally watch these type of movies, but my curiosity got the best of me and I popped this into the DVD player this evening. The movie would not be at all funny unless you've seen Nacho Libre, Narnia, Snakes on a Plane, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, X-Men, Pirates of the Caribbean, and The DaVinci Code, among others. Fortunately I have seen most of these movies so the parodies were not lost on me.

The sets and acting was mediocre, and the movie progressed quickly from one parody to another, and I actually did find myself laughing through a lot of the movie, but once it was over I kind of felt like I had just ingested junk food for the brain.

What did my husband think? He headed off to bed half way through, and he actually tends to enjoy comedies. Young people, especially those who enjoy comedies and have seen the above movies will probably find this movie to be moderately funny. I'm just glad I didn't waste my money at the theater on this one. June 13, 2008

Couple hits, a lot of misses

Yea, this movie isn't great. It could have been funny, but it's just kind of lacking. The parts of the movies they decide to make fun of, just seem kind of uninspired. For example, they make fun of the Harry Potter gang's age. Huh? He's maybe 2 years older he's supposed to be... why not the fact that an elderly man looks over a house full of young children? Or the length of his wand? Or soooomething. But sticking a bunch of old actors in the spots...puhlease.

Captain Jack isn't bad. Well, it's at least a fairly good copy of the real character, but they didn't really do anything from the movie. He could have had some funny parts... May 31, 2008

It's willy, it's willy, it's willy, willy awful.

This movie is about four adult orphans: Peter the Heroic, Susan the Just, Edward the Loyal, and Lucy the Dumb S**t. The movie begins with Lucy (Jayma Mays) in a spoof of The Da Vinci Code The Da Vinci Code (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition) finding her golden ticket. It then moves to Edward (Kal Penn) in a spoof of Nacho Libre Nacho Libre (Special Collector's Edition) getting his golden ticket. We then move to Susan (Faune A. Chambers) in her spoof of Snakes on a plane Snakes on a Plane (Full Screen Edition) acquiring her golden ticket. Finally we meet Peter (Adam Campbell) in his spoof of X-Men X-Men (Widescreen Edition).

With the four golden tickets in hand, the orphans begin their adventure at ... you guessed it! A spoof of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Widescreen Edition) The story goes from there to spoof The Chronicles of Narnia, Superman Returns, Harry Potter, and Pirates of the Caribbean ... Among others. Throughtout the movie, you'll chuckle at a few jokes here and there, but nothing that'll make milk pour from your nose. Epic Movie falls right in line with all the other spoof movies - a few well placed jokes, some poor spoofing, and bad acting. Would I recommend it? If you like these types of movies, I would. If not, I'd skip it. May 15, 2008

If you believed this, you must be joking. Go ahead and give me unhelpful votes for all I care, it still doesn't change the fact that this movie is neither epic nor funny. I'm gonna go watch Spaceballs, hope to see you two at the McDonalds counter, Jason and Aaron! :) May 13, 2008
