Critics Consensus

A crude comedy with nothing new or insightful to say about the subjects it satirizes.

A painful regurgitation of memorable moments from recent Hollywood blockbusters, the spoof film Epic Movie is almost entirely devoid of laughs.

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

Epic Movie does improve on Date Movie, but that's like saying a broken arm is better than a broken leg. Both breaks are pretty painful.

Raunchy blockbuster spoof is over the top, dumb.

It plays out like an overlong Comedy Central skit lurching for the next laugh without any remorse for the gross misfires in between.

If you didn’t watch this during the early 2000s spoof craze, then you won’t find this any good. I was a child when this came out and remember it being a popular "joke" movie for movie nights. Very nostalgic to rewatch as an adult now.

Dire. I didn't make it further than 20 minutes in; it's just too painful to bear.

The idea did not work, at all, sadly. Not really any words to describe this farrago ...

This is the best piece of cinema known to man. I am proud to be the same age as this movie. Peak cinema. I think everyone should watch this movie and own a DVD copy.
