Spoonixel Amateur movie with Big budget

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

ghostravenfin Reading through these reviews, I must agree with a lot of points I hate agreeing with. It's a comedy and not supposed to be taken seriously. That much is true, but if not taking something seriously is what makes a good comedy, then Epic Movie is a comedy masterpiece.But no, Epic Movie is painfully terrible, and so is this film. This does not imply I don't have a sense of humor like many will probably accuse me of. I actually find some parts that I COULD find funny in some circumstances, but here I don't.The film clearly implies that it's meant to be a comedy with a slight serious edge to it. Okay, the comedy in itself is slightly amusing at best and gave me a bit of a chuckle in one part or another. So it shouldn't deserve a score so low as 1/10, right? Well, maybe not, but it's the highest I can give when the rest of the movie is so hateful. I found only the little brother likable, and he was like from another world compared to the rest of the characters. The main protagonist in particular, is stupid, shallow, narrow-minded, homophobic c**t who always gets what she wants despite being a bimbo of a repulsive personality. And when things get ruined for her I'm probably supposed to feel sorry for her, but I start feeling good.When a movie clearly wants me to root for one character, but ends up making me hate him/her from the deepest reaches of my soul, something is done terribly wrong. Even the environment where Starla lives in seems to feed her success with its culture and that is just unsettling. It makes me wonder in fear, if this culture actually exists in America or is this a plain parody of it. Even if it's just a parody, the rest of the film just ruins it for me. Especially when in the end Starla could have just learned, that being such a terrible person isn't the best way to live, she ultimately wins and learns that it is okay to be terrible, because if you're popular, you'll survive everything. That and no clear mark of any lesson learned in the process make me want to write an alternate ending where Starla and her new boyfriend (forgot his name) have their car explode on their face as they drive in the horizon at the end of the film.And still it would be letting her go easy...

MEZahra1031 I first started watching the movie for Piper Perabo. I'm a huge fan and I LOVED her in Coyote Ugly and Because I said so. But the plot kind of surprised me at specific points of the movie... not in a really good way. First I really wanna say that I don't like Perabo being the bad girl, and I don't like our standard bad girl being the hero in the end. I mean, what was the use of the picture that Ed took of Genevieve and Starla?? It's just that the movie lead us in the wrong way and then shocked us. That would've been a good thing if I wasn't such a fan of Piper Perabo and I didn't like her being mean. All-in-all, I liked the first half of the movie, but I didn't really love the rest. 7.75/10

Sarcasticus When I started watching this movie, I was confused. What the hell is this supposed to be? A comedy? A drama? Is this some surreal Bunuel-esquire flick, full of elements which get introduced then dropped just as fast...But no, it turns out it's supposed to be a comedy. Which is too bad. 'Cause this movie could totally work as a bizarre little movie, with random bits of weirdness (Ms. Beef Pageant? This is funny?) and annoying over-the-top accents. In that sense, it would've been great. But no, it's a comedy. A terrible, terrible comedy. With a plot that only begins to reveal itself an HOUR into the movie. Horrible acting by Piper Perabo. Confused genres (you're watching it thinking, is this supposed to be like Mean Girls? Is this supposed to be like Napoleon Dynamite?) on a level not seen since "Cool As Ice". Moreover, every time Piper Perabo was on the screen, I wanted to punch her in the face. She is a terrible actress and should contemplate killing herself. Avoid this movie at all costs...unless you haven't read this review. And know nothing about it. In which case, enjoy the surreality.

howie73 This says more about Texans than it does about the French, but was the joke realized by its target audience? If you like cheesy films you can thrown popcorn at in the multiplex this is an ideal date movie. Its stereotyping, inane plot-twists and exaggerated performances reinforce its generic limitations, but I presume it wasn't supposed to expand anyone's mind. It has many funny moments and some good lines, and for a refreshing change, the subject of derision is satirized as much as the accuser. The best part of the film is its title but it could also have been called, Slap her she's Texan. Would that be too controversial? Seems as if the French are an easy target for Hollywood now.
