That may be damning this thing with faint praise. However, this is one of the funniest flicks I have seen in a while and I think it is an indication of the perverse nature of IMDb that it didn't rate higher. If this had been scripted by Charles Kaufman then all you sports jacket wearing mofo's would be worshipping like some kind of object of worship. Great performances, and the alternative ending on the DVD is even funnier than the one in the film. This gives you a real feeling that there is more to Pauly Shore than sub Bill and Ted Fare like Bio-dome and hopefully he will get some better projects as a result of this film.

Vanity project doesn't even begin to describe this Freudian nightmare. It's not so much a movie as a case study of what happens when a spoiled narcissist tries to regain his Biodome glory days. If you enjoy watching Pauly Shore whack off in the figurative, and literal sense, well this one's for you. In short, it documents the life of an untalented guy who lucked out and now resents the world for getting bored of him. Oh, and that guy has mother issues up the ass, as every woman in the film (outside the cameos) is a *, or his mother. While there is a self mocking tone to the film, it doesn't veil his resentment of Hollywood and his fans. He makes fun of his crap movies and unfortunate looks, but maintains throughout the film that it is Hollywood's fault for being so short sighted, or his fans fault for being narrow minded hicks. I actually went to this thinking it might be a good dark comedy about someone's 15 minutes of fame. Rather, I got an unadulterated, immature and shameless plea for personal and professional validation. It's kind of funny to me that Pauly Shore actually believes he made a good film, so I gave it a 2.

First, this movie isn't supposed to be an Oscar contender. Second, it's still a Pauly Shore movie, even if it's not like any other Pauly Shore movie. I really think the negative reviews of this movie were from people putting it on a pedestal before even watching it, expecting it to be extremely artsy, a biting satire on Hollywood or whatever other pretentious reasons they could come up with to hate the movie when it failed to play out like their fantasy they came up with simply by looking at the box and title. It's not a bad movie. It's not a great movie, but it's got plenty of humor in it, both clever Hollywood in-jokes (with lots of celebrities making fun of themselves along with Pauly) and simple toilet humor. I really think all the 'film school dropouts' need to sit back and enjoy the movie for what it is, not for what it isn't. It's a Pauly Shore movie that doesn't play like a typical Pauly Shore movie, nothing more nothing less. And if you didn't like other Pauly Shore movies, you should at least still give it a shot because of this. Just don't expect it cure cancer or feed hungry children. It's still a Pauly Shore movie.

Do not bother wasting your time or money on this product it really is appalling the plot is cumbersome and confused and the acting is diabolical.Its an attempt to get good actors together with a crap script and try to make it funny well I am sorry but this just isn't possible. The film transcends into ridiculous cameo performances but fails to make them spark the film into life how they managed to get so many comic actors on board with this script is beyond me because quite frankly the film is just not funny. Its a tired story anyway which has been done many times before and surely better though I haven't watched this type of film as I know what it is going to be like boring and unfunny.

This flick was one of the funniest things I've seen since Super Troopers. The story is so stupid it's funny. The idea that most people aren't really appreciated until they are dead is what the film is about. He fakes his death and everyone starts saying they miss him and his wit and humor. Don't let other people's reviews fool you. This is one film worth seeing. It is shot very poorly considering Pauly had to fund the whole thing himself, but it doesn't make for a difference. If your heart is in comedy and you remember the great movies of BioDome, Encino Man, Son In Law, then you'll love this flick. Some people right bad reviews based on a dislike of "artsy" films or of Pauly Shore. I don't have a dislike or a like of him. I just know this movie is funny and I know funny when I see it. So trust me, if you want to see something funny and a cult classic, such as Super Troopers or Monty Pythons Holy Grail, see this movie. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

This movie portrays Pauly attempting to revive his dead career. The irony is that if this movie were actually any good, it probably would revive his career. Unfortunately for Pauly thats not the case. It's terribly boring and full of bad acting. I applaud Pauly for recognizing why his career failed but wish he had just accepted the fact that he can't act and just chosen an alternative path to potential success. Don't be fooled by the all-star cast of this movie. That's just a stunt to lure as many poor victims into viewing this piece of lard as possible. I imagine most of the cast signed up out of pity. Pauly, Give up now! Go find a new career! Maybe serving at McDonalds? You MIGHT do well at that!

First off, let me say that I was never a fan of Pauly Shore. In fact, I could never understand how it was even possible that someone this unfunny was able to have a career as a comedian, but hey ... Despite my claims of hatred, though, I still managed to watch everything he'd done, in some kind of a masochistic, painful cycle, and my hatred for him continued to grow and grow. So it was inevitable that I would eventually catch 'Pauly Shore Is Dead', but what was surprising is how truly funny the film turned out to be. It's not perfect, by any stretch, and has a few moments that seem a little forced and even sentimental (such as the guardian angel visits), but all in all, I have to say this is one hell of a funny movie, and whether you like him or not, I think it would be hard not to admit some kind of respect for a man who is so willing to make fun of himself. It is his sense of humor about himself that ultimately makes the film work, and I must admit that between the self-effacing plot line and the surprising amount of work that went into making the film, Shore has really gone up in my book. I still think he might be in the wrong line of business, but at least he's grounded enough in reality to realize that possibility as well. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys watching any celebrity spoof themselves, as the film is loaded with numerous amusing cameos. Also check out the deleted scenes, a highlight being the rendition of the song 'It's Been A While'. Check it out, and you may be as pleasantly surprised as I was. Good work, Wiez!

This movie could have quite possibly been the worst filmed movie that was ever publicly produced since the beginning of time. But you have to hand it to old Pauly...there were some really freakin' funny parts in there. I laughed several times but at the same time was thinking that this is the worst movie ever made. Anyway I suggest you go and watch it just so you can laugh and then say, "This is the worst movie ever made." then end up liking it actually! (thats sort of what happened to me) Thus being said, I give this movie a 3. If it weren't for all of the funny parts in it, this movie would get a negative score...but luckily they brought it up to a one. To put it simply, it had the worst acting and filming ever and was just like a guy who had a bunch of famous friends and put them in the movie. Anyway thats my ten lines
