Seldom has a pic been more appropriately titled than Disaster Movie, yet another frantically unfunny free-form farce.

Disaster Movie
The latest spoof-orama in the long line of Hollywood parodies that started with Scary Movie way back when. A blue print of low-brow humour and lampooning of recent releases has been a big success at the box office, despite the scorn of lofty critics. After almost a decade of theatrical releases from this franchise, you've probably made your mind up as to which camp you belong, there's little middle ground on this one. Movies that are targeted for comic treatment include Hannah Montana, Indiana Jones, Hellboy, Batman, Speed Racer, Sex and the City, Juno and The Incredible Hulk.

The New York Times
Does little more than congratulate its audience on recognizing the source of its riffs. "High School Musical" -- ha ha ha!

Los Angeles Times
The product's not 100% giggle-free: Several songs have amusing lyrics, especially parodies of "Juno" and "High School Musical."

This carpet-fouling mongrel of a movie no more deserves release than do anthrax spores.
