Critics Consensus

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

Tim Grierson

Screen International

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

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.

Rated: 1.5/4

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 ...
