Critic Reviews

Owen Gleiberman

Epic Movie is just timely enough to conclude with a wink and a nod to Borat. I only wish that it had been bold enough to go Borat on HIM. Read full review

Alex Chun

The real problem with Epic Movie is that while it does a decent job imitating films, it never bothers to make fun of or have fun with them, which is what Friedberg and Seltzer did so well with "Scary Movie." Read full review

J.R. Jones

The cinematic equivalent of a tapeworm, this delivers few laughs beyond the initial chuckles of recognition. Seltzer and Friedberg (who also directed) have another script in development called "Raunchy Movie"; apparently one idea they haven't yet considered is "Watchable Movie." Read full review

Jason Anderson

Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer must be stopped. For the last two years, this filmmaking team has created a series of spoof movies so feeble, shoddy and unfunny that they may be part of a diabolical, "Manchurian Candidate"-like plot to stunt the intellectual development of American adolescents.

Michael Rechtshaffen

A monumentally unfunny time-waster. Read full review

Kyle Smith

This spoof of "The Da Vinci Code," "Pirates of the Caribbean," "Harry Potter," "The Chronicles of Narnia" and other recent blockbusters piles up sex gags, toilet gags and make-you-gag gags.

Nathan Rabin

It's an ersatz comedy filled with unconvincing celebrity look-alikes and tone-deaf parodies. Only the desperation and cynicism feel authentic. Read full review

Worst "comedy" I think I have ever seen. The only reason I give it a single point was that some of the jokes were almost worth a chuckle. Almost. But everything else about this piece of crap just stinks.

This was the very worst movie I have ever seen. Besides it's poor effort to make a joke, the flow of the movie was so bad that you could nap during the awkward moments and empty scenes.

The worst film I have ever seen. The entire film is a crude, braindead, unfunny, childish parody that may as well have been dreamed up by a five year old.

The fact that I've even watched this film, spending the necessary amount of time to see it all the way through, actually makes me worry about my limited lifespan. That's how bad this is.
