Totally Awesome

It's a crime that so few people have heard of this movie, and that so many have SEEN Meet the Spartans and Date Movie. This is flick is on such a higher level! Tracy Morgan's walking techniques, Chris Kattan's dance routines, and way too many subtle throw-away lines to count, make this movie TOTALLY AWESOME! The director's latest movie, The Goods, I found to be only "with its golden moments". Honestly, if you're on your way out to see it, spend the time to track this movie down instead. You'll have many more LOLs, and all in the comfort of your living room with whatever snacks you want to bring in! I totally plan to talk about this on hotcakesPodcast dotcom sometime before episode 60! PS Small Computer, Broken Leg...Look forward!

I've seen spoof movies and decided to watch "TOTALLY AWESOME" on DVD. At first I thought it was really terrible even for a spoof....but I kept watching and it kinda grew on me. There were some surprising Laugh out Loud scenes. I think the dance (Flashdance-Dirty Dancing) side story probably seemed funnier on paper (the script) but didn't work. Brittany Daniel is listed as top bill and we didn't see nearly enough of her. KIP was hilarious at times. Not a "TOTAL" waste of time if you just want a few laughs while eating pizza! The "Miagi" spoof of being gay was very funny as well. I thought there could have been more sexiness...but hey--it's VH1 TV movie. Maybe they can't show too much.

Ben Stein tells the audience that VH1 found a yet unreleased 1986 movie. Charlie (Mikey Day) and Lori (Dominique Swain) are brother and sister new to the school. Their family has just moved from Pittsburg to California. Lori aspires to dance but dancing has been outlawed in the town. Charlie is ranked last in popularity with outcast Billie (Nicki Clyne). On the other hand, Kimberly (Brittany Daniel) is ranked most popular. Gabriel (Chris Kattan) is the former dance instructor turned janitor.

It's a poorly made spoof. It's a bunch of skid ideas and underdeveloped concepts smashed together. It more miss than hit. Most of the ideas are just simply pointing out of something ridiculous without a joke to back it up. Dominique Swain is going crazy yelling and screaming which makes Mikey Day oddly quiet in comparison. Tracy Morgan has some of the funniest moments and is the best thing in the movie. In general,there aren't enough funny jokes.

I've just watched this movie on TV, and it seems to me a sad attempt at pointing fun at the 80's, but fails miserable.

"Not Another Teen Movie" wasn't amazing, but at least it nailed the bad 90's teen movies and put some humor into it.

This movie is about a brother,Charlie, (Mikey Day) and sister ,Lori, (Dominique Swain) who move to a new town in California from Pittsburg. The sister loves to dance and trained as a ballerina, so naturally she's crushed when she discovers she can't dance in this new town. The guy is ranked bottom of his senior class in 'coolness' on his first day and makes some feeble attempts to "rise against the cool people."

There's the unattainable hot chick, the jerky popular guy who makes no sense and the freaks. There's also Charlie's best 'freak friend', Billie (Nicki Clyne), who has a hopefully crush on him and can't admit it (Sixteen Candles right there).

The movie progresses with bad references to "Dirty Dancing", "Teen Wolf" and the like.

I won't give away anymore, but I wouldn't recommend this movie unless it's 3am and nothing else but infomercials are on.

It's not nearly stupid enough to be considered "so stupid it's funny" and it's not interesting enough to have any sort of cult following.

(And then there's the creepy janitor (who's an ex-dancer) and the principal who doesn't give a hoot.)

This movie is what it is. A spoof movie. It's not supposed to be "great". For all those who say it sucked for lacking a plot I say to you, move along because you obviously do not know a hilarious movie when you see one. It's a great movie to watch when you're baked. The directed also directed "Half Baked" starring Dave Chapelle. If you wanna have lots of out loud laughs, watch this movie. If you are looking for a serious movie, then this is not for you. It's made by VH1 people, come on. It's supposed to be a joke. I personally enjoyed Dominique Swain's spazzy loud character. She was hilarious. So basically, if you are a stoner then you wont be disappointed.
