My Name is Bruce

Just watched this yesterday.

Jeebus - I was shocked how bad this was. Totally unfunny. Bruce Campbell isn't bad in it but his one liners aren't enough to carry a whole film. All the other characters were annoying and the monster was piss poor...

I was pretty disapointed in this as well, It got really hyped on here, maybe that got my expectations up to high. But yeah, considering the idea behind it and baseing it on himself you would have expected him to make more of an effort.

I found it hilarious fan service with a clear sense of what it wanted to be. The in jokes, the quotes, and the props all screamed of a film made for real fans of his characters. Maybe the big screen made it better but I had a blast. I was expecting a cheesy B-Movie and that's what I got, I suppose if that's what I wasn't prepared for I'd have been disappointed.

Went into it not expecting much, so I wasn't dissapointed. Bruce did a decent job and I liked how he was portraing himself. That being said, the writers must have been hired for a few bucks. The monster wasn't impressive, though he was amusing. Would have liked to see the monster do something other than decapitate everyone he saw.

I too found My Name Is Bruce to be pretty funny. I wasn't expecting more than a B grade movie dishing out love to the Campbell fans so I was happy with what I got. Although I do agree that he should be in better horror films, perhaps as a starring role instead of the guy who gets killed quickly.

I thought this was a fun flick that had some great lines and wasn't afraid to take the piss out of itself.
