Killing Hasselhoff

I like Hasselhoff - he's not afraid to make fun of his image and has done some really good stuff in recent years.

But this film is pure junk right from the outset.

The acting is awful and the comedy unfunny. Whoever the lead character is (can't be bothered looking him up) is not a good actor and is ridiculously childish in the way he tries to force humour where there isn't any.

Don't bother wasting time or money on this rubbish.

The entire premise and outcome of the movie is in the trailer, so watching the film had to be about the jokes and the acting. And it was not funny. Oh, Hasselhoff making fun of his own inflated ego was a bit, but a very short bit, then it got old quick.

Now, this is not a bad movie that you can enjoy, it's just plain boring. It's got nothing, not even specific scenes, that is above the mediocre. I wanted very much to enjoy it, but I couldn't.

This film really only works if you are massively into David Hasselhoff, or if references, nostalgia and cameos are your absolute favourite parts of a movie. This has all that in spades!

Apart from that there really isn't that much ucg esle to offer here. It's not really all that funny and the story is all over the place.

Overall it's a pretty brainless comedy that relies on references to get it through, if you just want to turn your brain off then it's fine, but that's about it.

If you are looking for a plot synapses, there isn't one. The movie is one giant chain reaction. There are a lot of running jokes, each building up to a hilarious climax of absurdity. Hasselhoff spoofs himself amazingly well. I was never a Baywatch or Knightrider fan, so whatever inside jokes there were about those series was lost on me. However big Hasselhoff fans I'm sure would enjoy the movie even more. The movie takes a lot of pokes at Hollywood, adventure movies, PC culture, LA culture, even Ted Nudgent. Does so not in a mean spirited way though. It's sad that the craft of comedy has fallen so silent. Basically hour and a half fart jokes is what most comedies are about. This one offers plenty of slapstick but also more subtle jokes. Most of all it has a Robin Williamsesqu love of how absurd life is. In the end it's just fun. No politics, no preaching, no agenda, just a fun time and plenty of laughs.

Such a spectacular film in regards to message and scope it was brilliant the brilliantly casted cast is brilliant. David Hasselhod is still the king of the ring and will never ever take a ding i love it. Last time i watched a movie this great was when i saw joe dirt for the first time in theatres wow what an experience i can go on and on and on about joe dirt but i wont. Killing hasselhoff was the best movie since joe dirt 2
