Smosh: O Filme

Not a lot of good stuff to say about it.... Its an okay movie by itself, but very underwhelming and it did not live up to my expectations! Not the best acting by Ian and Anthony , its only a tiny bit more serious than their youtube videos and such. It mostly seems like a cheap and easy way to get as many youtubers and youtube videos in a movie as possible. Bottom line is that it was so hyped for and the have been advertising it for a long time now, so it is just VERY disappointing to anyone who thought it would be a good and unique movie, because it turns out to be a good concept that they took care of in the worst possible way and made it look and feel like a low-budget cliché filled movie.

I am a moderate smosh fan. Watched nearly all of their videos in youtube. The biggest puzzle of this movie is Ian and Anthony acted the way which is alien to me. Looked like they were being forced to act, absolute zero emotion and crappy dialogs. Were they nervous ? They are far more better than this in their youtube videos ! Who wrote the story ? Even their food battle videos makes sense than this predictive, humorless story. Seriously guys, you can do better than this on live camera ! The reason i like smosh videos is that they bring absolute absurd scenarios to life and make fun of almost everything. In this movie, there is none of that. Looks like someone saw 5 minute smosh video for the first time, tick some checkboxes. Wiener joke ? Check. Taking dump on car ? Check. Ian laughing at people ? Check. OK boys, story is written. Now glue your faces and start acting. The regular smosh family could have pulled a better short film. Seriously, Their foreign food test videos are better. I heard there are some true fan materials in the movie, like pokemon throwback or whatever. Who cares ?

This review was written on another site nearly two years ago, when Anthony was still part of Smosh.

**THE REVIEW**

I watched the movie last night. As a long-time Smosher I was disappointed that Boxman didn't show up. Or Sergeant Anous, Billy Jean, Stevie, Charlie, That Damn Neighbor, Teleporting Fat Guy, or Ian's REAL mom!!! I thought that there would be tons of references to their videos and that their YouTube channel and videos would be a big part of the movie but no, not even an appearance of Ian's pink- frosted sprinkle donuts!!

I thought that you would have to know a lot about Smosh to understand the movie, but this didn't have to be a Smosh movie. It could've starred two different people, had a different title and it still would've worked. This movie doesn't even acknowledge that they're famous YouTubers. The only tie-in to Smosh it has are the title, the "SHUT UP" at the beginning, and our two main characters.

If Ian and Anthony ever make another movie, I hope it has more to do with Smosh itself. I'd love to see all of their famous characters in a feature length movie. Anous, Charlie, Billy, Jean, Stevie, etc!! Maybe even PokeMon if they can get the rights.

**END OF REVIEW**

However, since Anthony left Smosh in June, I don't think there will ever be another Smosh movie or Food Battle... unless Anthony comes to his senses and goes back to Smosh. Why he would leave such a successful job and channel that he co-founded and co-owned since the beginning of YouTube back in 2005 is beyond me.

a lot of things had to come together to make this movie not good. someone had to write this movie, and then after that people read it and said, "yeah thats good, lets film it." and then on set those smosh guys acted the script and no one said, "Hey maybe lets try another take. maybe try to be more natural, take some time and really tap into your character. or maybe we could halt shooting until these guys take some acting classes." no one said that dozens of people on the set and no one said anything, they were just okay with it. they just filmed it and someone edited it and they said, "here internet kids, you like garbage, right? have this."

Its kind of insulting that everyone on this film was OK with how it turned out, and no one with the power said "hey lets try to make this good, lets really give them a good story with good jokes and gags and emotional stakes, and good special effects, and a plot that makes sense and characters that you can really get behind and root for." but no one did. and thats really disappointing. for all of us.

it could have been fixed but not now.

One reviewer actually sated this was the best movie they've ever seen. Another gave this movie 9 out of 10 stars, then basically went on to say the movie was pretty crappy. LOL!!! Seriously!! Have you ever SEEN a movie prior to this?? All I needed to see was the trailer and a few interviews on daytime TV to know this is a joke of a movie. I'm sure it ranks right up there with the Fred movie. You Tubers need to stay on You Tube and off the big screen. I'm actually supposed to come up with 10 lines about this movie before IMDb will allow me to post this review. Do you realize HOW DIFFICULT THAT IS to do with this stupid waste of film??
