If Judd Apatow is the Jesus of modern comedy, Seltzer and Friedberg are the Anti-Christ - and sadly just as prolific

Consensus: Returning to their seemingly bottomless well of flatulence humor, racial stereotypes, and stale pop culture gags, Friedberg and Seltzer have produced what is arguably their worst Movie yet.

Reviews for Disaster Movie
Top CriticHonestly, if the makers of this ever got serious about making web-based comedy, I reckon that they would absolutely rock it.

Top CriticA woman a few rows in front of me at the preview chose to write 20 minutes worth of text messages, rather than watch the movie. Even though she was not paying, the price was clearly too high.
10/03/08
Top CriticSince they have so little material to work with in the first place, Friedberg and Seltzer flog each joke well beyond its limits.
10/03/08
Top CriticA dumb, dumb film, to be sure, but also undeniably funny in more spots than a right-thinking, mature adult person feels comfortable admitting.
10/10/08
Top CriticPersonally, The Sneak would like to place Friedberg and Seltzer on a blazing upside-down boat which is about to be hit by a meteorite.

Why, oh why, is the spoof franchise that began with Scary Movie still churning 'em out?
09/05/08
It's hard to put into words just how excruciatingly painful it is to watch Disaster Movie, but let's just say it will make you appreciate those dreadful experiences in your life like, say, going to the dentist or waiting in line at the DMV.

I wish to God they would find something else to do.

No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! Wrong!!!

Having to watch and review 'Disaster Movie' must be payback for the juvenile pranks I took part in as a teenager.

leaves one with a feeling of failure -- and the knowledge that, come this spring, these idiots will more than likely be back

I'm not sure if Disaster is the worst movie the boys have churned out, but, at this point, that's like asking if a bullet hurts more than a knife.

The "jokes" are limp and pathetic or stillborn, timing is ignored, performances are a not-so-giddy mug-fest. Audiences are left wondering when the freshman cast is going to learn the rudiments of performing.
10/13/08
Disaster Movie is not, as you might have guessed, a parody of disaster movies. But it is a disaster.
09/05/08
Here's what they got right: The name of the movie. Disaster, indeed.
08/29/08
It's not even value for money if you're a moron.
09/05/08
Not a comedy, more a medical affliction, Disaster Movie’s symptoms include apathy, regret and eventual despair.
09/05/08
The result is a series of extraneous, deplorably unfunny scenes and sketches stitched together in completely haphazard fashion.
09/05/08
As depressing and empty a cinematic experience as any other picture this year or last (or maybe the whole decade). To label it as simply unfunny or vacuous or ugly or boring would be a compliment.
