Happy New Year! My
apologies for taking so much time for the first post of 2015.
Synopsis: Whoa…it’s
an extremely bad movie about an extremely bad movie!
Blurb From the VHS
Jacket: “With hilarious humour and an all-star cast – get ready for the
ultimate comedy about the movie business!”
What Did I Learn?:
1) If you want to convince everybody that you’re insane, it’s not a bad idea to
sing: “Itsy-Bitsy-Spider” apropos of nothing. 2) If you want to work with
Jackie Chan, don’t kill off his character. 3) Apparently, it isn’t easy to work
with Stallone.
You Might Like This Movie
If: You don't feel like singing "Hooray for Hollywood". (Wow, this version is cheesy....)
Really?: So…this
is supposed to be a documentary, and yet there’s unexplained footage that tells
the audience what “really” happened? Oh, and why aren’t there any likeable
characters in this cinematic mess?
Rating: I wanted
to like An Alan Smithee Film: Burn Hollywood Burn a lot more than I
did; the film has a great cast, as well as a humourous premise (put-upon director
destroys his own bad creation and gets into trouble), but something really got lost in
the execution. Honestly, there’s nothing more unwatchable than bad comedy, and Burn Hollywood Burn is unfunny, badly
written, and absolutely terrible. I cannot recommend this movie. 3/10 stars.
