it a shame to see film that promise to parody the formulaic and over constructed nature of epic film and but fail and and subsequently conform to what be now the spoof genre . in parody say film and they merely reconstruct the setting ( poorly ) i. e. willy wonka chocolate river become poo . the reference to pop culture be 1 represent over use 2 represent poorly use 3 represent irrelevant and not funny . it appear that the budget be spend on midget and a dance choreographer ( apparently it be funny when medieval knight and pirate and dwarf and oompa loompas dance ) . the narrative be infantile and not remotely funny and no imagination could possibly enjoy the pure nonsense of the characterization . parody film be mean to parody and this one fail to come even close to funny and it irreverence be pathetic and not hilarious and the writer . well and where to start with them . if you like watch picture move and people talk and this film be probably for you . if you like film that be intelligent in their parody and genuinely funny and then stick to the scary movie catalogue . even date movie be good than this and that say something . this film trade on the pretension that it will be funny it be not and someone should report it to a fair trading body . i personally wonder what be more disturbing and that people would enjoy this movie and or that hollywood think that people will enjoy it .
