The parodies may be bite-sized but they bear no teeth marks. Does any of it work, and do you think anyone will find any of it funny decades from now, when half of the references will have been forgotten? This is a zero laugh movie. But it has the cred. Even more of the humor relies on having viewing tastes identical to writer-directors Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, who do takeoffs on everything from the Saturday Night Live digital short "Lazy Sunday" (which itself was partially a Narnia riff) to MySpace.com. The only other note is that the band that plays at the pre-battle rager is The Eagles of Death Metal. It doesn’t make me feel good though.

Add articles to your saved list and come back to them any time. Their words, not mine. Instead once the orphans enter Gnarnia the plot just marches through the plot of The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe with nary a laugh. With a title like EPIC MOVIE, you'd think this feature-length spoof would be taking aim at, well, epic movies, and the clichés of spectacles like Troy or Gladiator. As for discrimination, I doubt that Friedberg and Seltzer have ever encountered the concept. Maybe a bit of that, but ultimately it is their misguided belief that they had the ability to continue a genre that can only be very very good or very very bad. Compare this film to other spoofs -- like Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein and Woody Allen's Shadows and Fog -- in which the comedians seem to have great understanding and affection for what they're spoofing. Instead once the orphans enter Gnarnia the plot just marches through the plot of The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe with nary a laugh. We won't share this comment without your permission. God is dead. C+, Time is irrelevant in this film. And the acting is horrible, but what did I expect? On occasion the effects are pretty good … mostly the effects are bad. Change ), You are commenting using your Twitter account. The whole thing is like a MADtv sketch that escaped the small screen to the big one. Change ). Lots of crotch and breast gags; plenty of innuendo and big, cartoon-style violence. The Chronicles of Narnia comes in for special attention largely because of its Britishness, coupled with the fact that in this company, it qualifies as high art. Looking wistfully back to the heyday of spoofs lead our intrepid filmmakers to ruin I think. Quick check in from StreetCreditReport.com where we ponder the larger bad movie landscape … and yeah this is a doozy. The end. Bloodless, cartoon-style violence, with characters dismembered, smashed, pierced with arrows, shot, decapitated, stabbed, eviscerated, and de-tongued, as well as punched and kicked (in the groin, usually), though they rise up again unscathed. In the beginning the motivation is to escape the evil Willy who wants to maim and disfigure them for the benefit of his delicious candy (true story). Obviously this was so he didn’t sully his good name with this garbage. In fact all things are irrelevant. Can they take her down and restore freedom to Gnarnia? F. I found this film to both be better and worse than I expected. The Witch enchants a victim by showing him her breasts (her back to us). And that’s the rub. There is a legacy, but a legacy with regard to the BMeTric. Why would something like this exist without shame?” Indeed! Susan (Faune Chambers) has just flown into the action aboard a plane full of snakes. He helps them free Edward, only to be killed in the process, leaving the orphans in charge to do battle with the White Bitch. The sin isn’t Sloth, a lot of effort was put into this film even if the soundtrack is just a best of the early 2000s track and they default to musical montage at the drop of a hat. Since these two elements are judged as being hilarious in themselves, the action slows down to a snigger at this point, rising to a wholehearted snort of derision when it arrives at another British favourite, the adolescent Harry Potter. Obviously this was so he didn’t sully his good name with this garbage. They rule over Gnarnia for years, only to stumble on the wardrobe in their old age. Obviously on the verge of a major defeat Peter fortunately finds a magic remote control (a la Click) and pauses time, allowing the orphans to kill everyone. Weirdly during the MTV Cribs spoof the location of Mr. Tumnus’s house is given as Gnarnia Hills, California… taking this at face value we can say this is set primarily in California. Repeated jokes by fantasy figures (fauns and lion-men) about how their fathers "boinked" animals, resulting in their birth. Why?! Gnarnia for the most part. This disgusts their fellow warriors to the point where no one shows up the next day to fight the White Bitch. Edward (Kal Penn) has grown up in a Mexican monastery cribbed from Nacho Libre, the unfunny Jack Black comedy, and Peter (Adam Campbell) is a failed X-Man. If you happened to be among the filmmakers who've made the cut, you would probably feel as if you'd been licked all over by a labrador. In fact all things are irrelevant.
