The twisted minds of two of the six writers of "Scary Movie" tackle the biggest mega-blockbusters of all time in "Epic Movie." The story centers on four not-so-young orphans: one raised by a curator at the Louvre (where an albino assassin lurks), another a refugee from Mexican "libre" wrestling, the third a recent victim of snakes on her plane, and the fourth a "normal" resident of a mutant "X"-community. The hapless quartet visits a chocolate factory, where they stumble into an enchanted wardrobe that transports them to the land of Gnarnia (with a "G"). There they meet a flamboyant pirate captain and earnest students of wizardry - and join forces with, among others, a wise-but-horny lion to defeat the evil White Bitch of Gnarnia. This film received horrible reviews when it was released to theaters but come on can we really take a movie that serious that even the makers of the film didn't? I say no as this is simply a no-brainer packed with one parody after another and really not out to achieve much other then provide some laughs just it does just not for the compete run time. This is worth at least a rental for those that enjoyed "Scary Movie" and you then can decide on owning this dvd. What could of been a much better film still provided me with some laughs and with a title like this that's about all I expected. Released by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment. ** 1/2 Out Of *****
