Movie Reviews of Pauly Shore Is Dead
Movie Review: Pauly Shore is awesome!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great Pauly Shore is awesome! He couldn't have done a better job with this movie. It took him 5 years to make it, so he deffinatly put some time into it. This is a great movie for all Pauly Shore fans, even for non-Pauly Shore fans. This movie is a true eye-opener. It shows the reactions of people after somebody dies. Either they're happy, or they're sad. It's more of an anti-suicide film than anything else. It teaches you really how people will react to your death. But I highly recommend that you buy this movie, it is totally worth your buck!!!!Movie Review: This is a funny film - I kid you not
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the greatest Pauly Shore film ever - better than Biodome. I wasn't expecting too much and instead it was hilarious. Such an amazing cast of cameos. And Pauly proves he's not ready to be washed up.
I got a megalaugh from the Rico Suave moment - i don't want to give it away.
This movie is going to do well when it finally airs on VH1 and goes well with the Surreal Life feeling. Best comedy since Harold and Kumar Go to the White Castle.
Movie Review: pauly shore is alive!
Summary: 5 Stars
i saw this film on the opening night here in sacramento. i thought it was great. mr. shore pokes fun at himself and the business. if you support his reinvention of himslef to be less like the son in-law and more like an adult, then you'll appreciate this movie. it's funny and has a message...and how can you not just love him?Movie Review: the best pauly shore movie ever
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is hilarious. it shows the real story behind the weasel himself. If you haven't seen this movie, you don't know your movies. if you liked NAPOLEON DYNAMITE, you'll love this movieMovie Review: EXPOSING HOLLYWOOD, One Hypocrisy at a Time!

Pauly Shore is Alive and Well!
And not because I think P.M.S. is such a talented actor/comedian because, quite frankly, I think he sux. I'm not saying that to be mean or rude; I'm just not impressed with him -- at all! I question his talent as a stand-up comedian and as an actor.
But as a commentator / pseudo-documentarian, however....
Here, clearly, is Pauly Shore's absolute finest hour (at least until he pulls something else out of the hat at a later date). His faux "semi-autobiographical" film "PAULY SHORE IS DEAD" (aka "YOU'LL NEVER WIEZ IN THIS TOWN AGAIN") is such an indictment against the "Hollywood System" it ain't even funny -- even though Pauly presents it in a funny way.
He shows just how typical, hypocritical, backbiting and fickle the masters of the entertainment system and the arse-kissing entertainment media truly are -- how they can, at a whim, make or break a person's career in the industry, which, as Pauly shows, is committed mostly through typecasting and stereotyping.
Pauly's independently financed movie (of course! -- you think the H-Town execs would want to be compliant in their own asswhippin'?) shows the entertainment world's "two faces." Though he focuses on the "movie" & "music" industry, his expose could just as easily apply to professional sports. He uses the "celebrity wing" of a prison to show just how the pressures & politics of the industry can lead to your downfall. He lays out before us how easily we can be manipulated into following on the bogus coattails of the entertainment industry's propaganda arm (for instance, in the film Pauly becomes beloved as a 'comic genius' who dies before his time, while all we ever saw of his 'genius' was rather shallow & limited, and he matches this up with "casting" the late Sam Kinneson as his 'guardian angel' -- an entertainer who truly did die and who really was hailed as a 'comic genius who died before his time,' even though the entire scope of Kinneson's "comedic genius" was that he was just some fat guy who screamed a lot).
In his movie, Pauly is basically telling his audience that he learned too late what many others-- like Tom Hanks, Michael Keaton, Jamie Foxx, Robin Williams --either learned before him or began figuring out soon enough: that to be 'pigeonholed' is to be condemned to a slow rotting death, as it were. But, in relation to this, he also showed that "Hollywood" is not always so willing for their "product" (as they think of the people they sign on) to change its formula (which is no wonder why we get inexhaustible remakes, rehashes and sequels coming from 'Tinseltown').
I believe Pauly has real talent deep down somewhere, and could definitely express it if only given a chance to break out of the mold of the "Weasel" (which was not always meant as a term of endearment). He has clearly shown some of that talent with this movie as a writer and director -- perhaps this is his "true" calling, I don't know, but it gives me hope that he, like those mentioned above, and others like Sam Raimi, can ascend to greater & more respectable heights.
