Epic Movie

The gutter-brow auteurs who helped write the first Scary Movie and created Date Movie milk their lame sketch-comedy minds for yet another punishingly uninspired skewering of Hollywood hits. The Da Vinci Code, Nacho Libre, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The Chronicles of Narnia bear the brunt of their dull humor and witless sight gags, which include every bodily function and a few acts of bestiality. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery—but there ain’t nothing pretty about this. (Now playing; Click here for venues.)—Stephen Garrett
