Don't Believe the Hype
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
"Disaster Movie" is a parody of 2007 and 2008 movies like "Alvin and the Chipmunks" , "Enchanted" and "Kung Fu Panda". It's set on Armageddon. IMDB's rating for this is a 1.9/10 for it's stupidity. However, that's the point! It's being stupid with modern movies. My rating loses half a star because of 2 double entendres: "Chipmunks love nuts" and "Don't mind me. I'm just playing with my monkey." Both made me think "REALLY?" One movie reference comes after another, and I think they fit better as shorts rather than a whole movie, like "The Spirit of Mickey" or "The Many Adventures of Winnie The Pooh" with modern movies. If you really don't like the F word, don't see the unrated version of the song at the end! One example of stupidity is a parody of "Enchanted" and the ripoff Giselle eats a beer bottle and lets her lips bleed since she was unaware that it wasn't food. That parodies how she knows nothing about the real world. The movie is NOT genius, but not 1.9/10 bad in my opinion. "Night Patrol" is less than that, but that has a 4.8 somehow! The movie has something insightful to say about how silly modern movies are. Maybe we should listen.
Seriously - Who the hell spends money to make films like this? This is one of those "comedies" where you stare at the TV with a constant expression of disgust and end up with an immense headache from frowning so much - Honestly... Not a single smile throughout. Complete and utter rubbish
Watched on TV with my easy to entertain teen sons. After 15 min's they say: What a TOTAL piece of CRAP! For gods sake change the channel before we puke! Can we go rent a movie that's actually funny? Pleeaase..Sure this is a movie for kids, but what happened to all good comedy's? Those comedy's that demanded some brains?My 9 year old son just can't see any fun in people who is just acting stupid or clumsy, falling, etc. But he really enjoys movies like Fargo (not the series). Fargo is hilarious if you have some brains.Why can't i just make a short statement? "Have to be 10 lines...". Sorry, but not everyone likes to babble...
I was looking forward to watching this because I love disaster movies and it would be so easy to make fun of them. With all the unrealistic survival situations, moron decisions by bad guys and the fact that there's very few disaster movies that would make you go "Wow!".I haven't watched this movie for many years, but I still remember being hugely disappointed by it. Much like "Meet the Spartans", the jokes are not about what the movie is titled. Instead there's just poor celebrity imitations with bad jokes. I can't remember laughing even once. On the other hand I regularly get a lot of laughters out of bad disaster movies like "Atomic Twister". And I even think that one didn't intend to be funny at all, while this one did.
