Leave your thoughts about My Big Fat Independent Movie.
| Film ThreatPhil HallI would like to praise My Big Fat Independent Movie for achieving something that most independently-produced comedies fail to do: it creates laughs. |
| New York PostLou LumenickThis painfully unfunny spoof promises to do for independent movies what Airplane! did for disaster movies, but mostly what My Big Fat Independent Movie does is demonstrate the ineptitude of its makers. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisHas a knowing, insider quality that could generate a modest cult following. |
| Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThis low-budget effort lacks the wit necessary to sustain its brief 80-minute running time. |
| Chicago ReaderReece PendletonIt might have looked good on paper, but the results are mixed at best; despite a few early chuckles, the whole thing gets tired after 20 minutes. |
| TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghThe juvenile gags seem aimed at moviegoers who hate the whole idea of independent/art/foreign-language films and the stuck-up eggheads who like them -- so what's the point? |
| Village VoiceBen KenigsbergFeels motivated by envy more than anything else-it's a sour, petty act of mockery that values its own ineptitude over genuine cleverness, travestying Quentin Tarantino and others simply for dreaming up gimmicks that worked. |
| User ReviewChrisP.Chris Gore is a genius! No-one, and I mean no-one could have come up with a great spoof of indies like this guy! |
| User ReviewMatthew LGreat movie written by the one and only Chris Gore! |
| User ReviewMaya Ahella funny. i think anyone who doesn't like it, just has no good sense of humor. |
