Fred: The Movie

Clearly another example of how easily and quickly movie studios run out of ideas, it should come as no surprise that this movie is easily one of the worst this decade. Nothing here is funny, intentionally or otherwise.

Honestly, I don't even know what to say to this. This movie is a colossal, boring failure of the imagination and a total misunderstanding of the purpose of humor. A 16 year old acting like a five year old on crack quite frankly wasn't funny to begin with and is never going to be. Was there any effort put into the script? Go read the quotes section, and the answer you will almost certainly come up with is no.

Honestly, this was a painful experience that I could have avoided if I knew it had a whopping 0% on rotten tomatoes. But there was nothing else on TV that day that I was allowed to watch. I still get the sense that I would have been better off watching American Horror Story.

In conclusion, there are absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever in this movie. But keep in mind that if you have it, this is not a movie that should be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force.

Garbage. That is all I have to say. This movie made me cringe as soon as I saw the title. I watched this movie, along with the sequel that came out just before Halloween. Unsurprisingly, the sequel was better. I hated this movie for many reasons. One, there's no plot whatsoever. Two, the actors either never acted before, or they just sucked so bad, it looked like they were actually trying to leave the movie. Three, "Gammit"? "Dam(n)"? Way to push the language on a PG film guys. Four, this movie is basically a compilation of Fred shorts that you could watch on Youtube for free. Five, This is just an attention movie. "Hey, it's Fred! Look at me, I have my own movie!" We know Fred. And it sucks. So do you. Six, and most important, this move is DULL. By the half-hour point, I was almost asleep, with Fred's dumb Nickelodeon-tweaked voice keeping me awake until the credits.

I hate this movie, and any Fred fan who wants to disagree with that, go right ahead, but I guarantee you, I will be right about something, even if you disprove the rest of what I said. If you watch any Fred movie, at least watch Fred 2. At least I wasn't bored for a good chunk of it.

Watched Fred: The Movie. Plain horrible. This kid simply has no talent. The kids from ICarly, for example, they have it. This YouTube star(?) doesn't have it. The character is beyond stupid, and not in a Pee-wee Herman or Ernest P. Worrell "funny stupid" kinda way. This developmentally challenged Fred character is lame. It's crazy to think so much money and fame can/has come from this. He had YouTube, a HotTopic merchandise deal, and Nick. I don't understand it? A fad like PetRocks? There's really not enough to say here about this movie to fill ten lines of a review. This film isn't even SNL skit amusing. If I were to guess I'd say Fred's popularity is due to 12 - 18yr olds who find it so dumb they've decided to bug people by faking devotion. John Cena should've passed on this project.

I had to give this movie a one, there was nothing lower. Who ever paid David and Lucas for this movie should be fired. I've seen better screenplays from five year old kids. They should really be held criminally responsible for this, I watched kids walk away from this movie on television. OMG then someone has paid this kid for a web series, do people know we are in a recession and putting good money into crap like this is counter productive. Come guys get a clue put your applications in at McDonalds, TODAY!! Best part if this movie was the first commercial break, I went and hurled, really. Lucas you are truly a terrible actor, give it up kid, your stealing from people, THIEF!!

There are several reasons why I hated, hated, hated this "film", and I would be here all night listing them. I'll give some very, very faint credit where it is due, it is not quite the worst movie I have ever seen. However it is down there; Fred:The Movie is just a waste of time, full of everything that makes a bad movie bad.

To me, Fred:The Movie has very sloppy production values and is of poor sitcom television quality. It looks even worse than Nick shows like iCarly. The soundtrack is awful, while the script is abysmal and devoid of any laughs, the characters are stereotyped and even clichéd(Fred especially is incredibly obnoxious and just one of the film's many irritations) and the story(if you call it a story as such) is predictable and juvenile. The pacing is uneven, the direction is dreadful and the acting I don't know where to begin criticising. Even the poster on IMDb had me cringing.

Overall, a waste of time and gets my vote as the worst of the year. 0.5/10 Bethany Cox
