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.

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.

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.

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

It manages the feat of being painful to watch and a fucking boring movie, where the only feeling left is regret for having wasted time on it.

If I could put 0 stars I would. I’m finding it difficult to write this review as I am now forever sad knowing that I have to live in a world where this film exists. I have nothing more.

If you like early 2000s movies and Harold and Kumar it's perfect. If not you'll hate it.
