Movie Reviews of Pauly Shore Is Dead
Movie Review: The Weasel fails to deliver the goods...bud-dy!!
Summary: 2 Stars
Pauly "The Weasel" Shore stars as himself in this movie about well, himself as he goes threwout the movie, backtracking and tracking forward on how his career went down the drain. He had hit movies, Son-In-Law, Encino Man, In The Army Now, Bio-Dome and Jury Duty. He had a failed Fox TV show and no one liked him anymore. He keeps bugging fellow actors to ask the director for a spot in their movie. Anyway, Shore gets a visit from the "Ghost of Sam Kinison" and Kinison tells him you'll be famous if you're dead. So, Pauly Shore fakes his own death and everyone mourns him, even his # 1 fan Bucky (W. Earl Brown) but soon everyone finds out that he faked his death, so he goes to Celebrity Prison, everyone hates him. In prison, Shore shacks up with Todd Bridges and has encounters with Heidi Fleiss, Tommy Lee and Carlos Gomez. Soon, Shore wants to be known as Pauly Shore the actor, not The Weasel anymore. Funny in a bunch of parts and cameos are scattershot as well...some cameos include Ben Stiller, Tom Sizemore, Michael Madsen, Britney Spears, Bill Maher, Paris and Nicky Hilton, Fred Durst, Andy Dick, Mario Lopez, Carrot Top, Vince Vaughn, Rico Suave, Dustin Diamond, Charlie Sheen, Verne Troyer, Clint Howard, Sean Penn, Kurt Loder, Pamela Anderson, Dr. Dre, Whoopi Goldberg, Jason Mewes, Kato Kaelin, Snoop Dogg, Thommy Chong, Ja Rule, Chris Rock, Ellen DeGeneres, Corey Feldman, Rick Ducommmun, Mark McGrath, Montell Williams, Perry Ferrell, Matt Pinfield, Taylor Negron, Jerry Springer, Adam Sandler (voice only) and many others. Deep down, The Weasel fails to deliver the goods. Pauly Shore Is Dead, dies along the wayMovie Review: Pauly Shore IS dead, so why was this movie made?
Summary: 2 Stars
I know that there are many of us who have been waiting many years for a new Pauly Shore movie to be released, well, now is the time. Now that I have the sarcasm out of my system, I can continue with my review. Many of you may be asking yourselves, I wonder if Pauly Shore is still as annoying as he used to be? Well, the answer to that is a resounding yes. A movie written and directed by Pauly Shore with himself as the star, what more could you ask for out of a movie? The man has not matured a bit and is still clinging desperately to his A.D.D inspired antics, hoping that someone will laugh at him. Shore also decides to throw a few stereotypes into the mix, making me have even less respect for him than I already did.
Ok, so initially I got the wrong impression of this movie, which lead me to have high expectations. I thought that this was just going to be a lot of celebrities making cameos and talking about how bad of an actor Pauly was. Personally, I think that that would have made for an excellent movie. Seeing as how that was not the case, I was absurdly disappointed with this film. The only reason I could stand to give it 2 stars were for the scenes where there WERE celebrities making fun of Pauly Shore. For all four of you Pauly Shore fans out there, go ahead and purchase this movie, but for everyone else, STAY AWAY! The movie hopes to capture something of an audience with its plethora of celebrity appearances but the fact is, Pauly Shore is indeed dead.
Movie Review: Great idea, terrible production
Summary: 2 Stars
This would have worked much better if Pauly had someone get reactions from celebrities (even fake ones) from the red carpet. But he didn't.
Instead Pauly produces a lame, laughless series of scenes featuring "himself" and other semi-celebs being "Not-Funny". althought he scene with Carrot Top buying Pauly's house is pretty funny.
Overall the film falls flat trying to be both surreal and funny, leaving the viewer saying, "What?" a lot.
Movie Review: Not great
Summary: 2 Stars
I honestly didn't see what was supposed to be funny or interesting about this movie. Don't be fooled by the big names attached to it, they are cameos only.
The only line I found really funny was a critic saying about Pauly Shore's TV show: "it sucks worse than gravity." I am not saying that this could be applied to this movie as well. Not quite.
Movie Review: False Advertising.
Summary: 1 Stars
When I picked this movie up at the video store, I read the title and thought, "Cool, he's dead? It's about time. I was worried that they might make 'Son In Law II'." Sadly, he's not dead, and watching this movie will only make you wish he was.
This film has a moronic plot, contrived dialog, horrific production values (the voice over during the establishing scenes is horribly recorded, and there are several times during the film where the overdubbed dialog doesn't even come close to matching what's happening on the screen), and ham handed direction. Throw in bad acting and the Hilton sisters, and you essentially get a porno film without the sex... and that's just plain frustrating for everyone involved.
Besides, I NEVER needed to see Pauly Shore waxing his dolphin, in reality or simulation. It seemed to me that the 'wiez' was hoping that people would find his somewhat fictionalized life to be either funny or touching, but I only found it to be moronic and insulting. As far as I'm concerned, he should have taken the money that he got to make this film, thrown a huge party instead, and then jumped off of the Hollywood sign wearing a pink tutu and clown shoes. At least THAT would have been somewhat amusing.
