Movie Reviews of The Godthumb
Movie Review: sorta gets under your cuticle and sits there
Summary: 5 Stars
The Godthumb(tm) while not the funniest of the series is still very good. A lot of the jokes are quick, and if you blink you'll miss them. Also the world that The Godthumb(tm) lives in is populated with not so intelligent thumbs, (many examples of this) and products,( such as: The Meat Cube Magican and Bagger Burger) so any thumb that is even remotely bright, shines brightly. If you liked Bat Thumb or FrankenThumb you'll most likely apperciate GodThumb(tm) and the jokes. The only complaint (if you can call it that) would be lack of commentary, which the other Thumb series seem to have (this may have since been rectified) While I enjoy the series, You might want to consider renting first before adding to your collection...but it's still a good story.
Summary of The Godthumb
A notorious New York mafia family rules a vast criminal empire of extortion, gambling, and murder, all led by The Godthumb. His struggle to control the underworld of crime and corruption is only offset by the "favors" he is asked from his many personal and professional "family" members. From the comic mind of Steve Oedekerk (Kung Pow: Enter the Fist, Jimmy Neutron, Ace Ventura) comes a gripping tale of true crime mixed with sensationalistic falsehoods and wrapped in vicious mobster stereotypes. Whatever you do, don't fuhgeddaboudit!Steve Oedekerk (who wrote and directed Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls) masterminds a series of movie parodies in which the actors are replaced by thumbs--more specifically, thumbs with eyes and mouths digitally superimposed. The Godthumb has a script that would be funny even if performed by normal actors (something that can't be said for all the Thumbation movies), but the bizarrely high-quality thumb effects push it to the point of surrealism. The Godthumb parodies all the high points of The Godfather (the horse head in the bed, the death of Sonny, the orange peel), but it's at its best when it spirals off into its own peculiar universe. Fans of the Thumbation flicks will not be disappointed. --Bret Fetzer
