    Worst movie ever

    I consider myself to have a decent sense of humor, but this "movie" left me stunned in my chair.

    It's so bad that it could just not have been any worse. Not once did I laugh at the sadly attempted jokes in this movie. I have watched and enjoyed several parodies of big movies, but unfortunately this one will allways be the one I remember best - in my nightmares.

    The only reason anyone should want to watch this, is if they want to enter a coma for a brief period of time.

    This is the worst movie ever.

    I Saw Pulp Fiction. I Understood It. It Still Sucked. Don't Say You Haven't Been Warned!

    I rented this one because I heard it was funny. I don't remember where I could have possibly heard that because it was anything but funny. I've seen all the movies it attempted to spoof and I understood all the "jokes". I was even amused at first, but that didn't last long. The pure and simple truth is that this movie was not funny. Not in the least. It was so bad, it reminded me of The Underground Comedy Movie. That was horrendous, too. I think I laughed at least once in that one, though. I didn't laugh at one joke or gag in this one. I did find it a tad clever at times, but not enough to make it anywhere near a good movie.

    The worst of the worst was Sandra Bernhard. Man, she has to be the worst actress I've ever seen. She would give the girls in Savage Roses a run for their money for worst actress. It's pretty bad when you can't act well enough for a parody. I can't believe she's still getting work. Enough time wasted on her.

    If I had to say something good about the movie, the only thing that stands out is Tommy Davidson. He can do a dead-on Samuel L. Jackson and he was the highlight of the movie. Not something to be proud of. It's a shame that Bernhard is still working and Davidson hasn't been around for a couple of years.

    It is because of Tommy's performance that I would give this movie 2 stars out of 10 (instead of 1). Don't say you haven't been warned.

    See Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs first.

    A very funny parody if you like and have seen those movies first. If you haven't,you will not understand most of the jokes. A number of other movies are parodied in this too. Nell, Forrest Gump, Clerks, and others. The funniest line is when a diner waiter says to a customer "I've had this tuna fish sandwich up my &%$# for two years" If you haven't seen Pulp Fiction you would just think that it was a gross line.

    Well, what can I say?

    It's painfully obvious that the people who made this "movie" have never seen such brilliant spoofs as "The Naked Gun" and "Hot Shots". This movie is terrible, and so are the actors. They wouldn't know acting even if it hit them in the face, as I felt like doing while watching this total pile of rubbish.

    The movie is stupid and has no humor in it what so ever. I'm SURE that I could make a better movie with my friends. To me it's amazing that a movie can fail this much. Not a single clever or funny line. No trace of intelligence behind it. It's a pathetic movie and I'd like to meet the person who actually likes this movie. Yuck!

    The problem is that we've heard the joke before... and it was never funny

    I've never understood this type of spoof movies. You get some serious/semi-serious movie that everyone knows about and takes the seriousness out of it through immature fart-jokes and such. We've seen it many, many times, and it's never really been funny. It's just an easy way to laugh at something you don't understand, in my opinion. This seems to be one of the more obscure and less liked of the genre, though I honestly don't see anything in this that is much worse than that of Spy Hard or Hot Shots. This movie, as is clearly understood simply from the title, concentrates on making childish fun of Pulp Fiction. That's the main reason I decided to watch it, as I found that film to be overly indulgent of Tarantino's sick mind and powerfully overrated. I had hoped for one or two good jokes, making fun of the overly violent and pointless type of movie that Pulp Fiction was in every aspect, in my (anything but) humble opinion. I was sorely disappointed. The plot is pretty much a rip-off of Tarantino's film, with a few scenes spoofing other, often better, films, in the same childish and humorless fashion. The pacing is poor, and often you'll sit there, being able to guess the outcome of every scene, predicting every joke, often thinking of a better one at the spot, bored out of your mind. The acting is bad. The characters are clichés and stereotypes, and are intentionally paper-thin in order to make fun of the characters they're based on... problem is, it doesn't work. It just makes the movie that much harder to sit through. The humor is juvenile and lame. The only positive thing I can say about this film is that they managed to find some actors that looked like the people they were supposed to look like. The film is an awful waste of the actual real actors involved. Possibly slightly entertaining to fans of the typical spoof movies of the same kind. I recommend this only to people who truly loathed Pulp Fiction, or fans of the Zucker parody films. Everyone else: avoid. 1/10
