My Name Is Bruce 2007

Jeff Shannon, Seattle Times: Subtract Campbell from this movie's idiot-friendly equation and you've got just about any dimwitted horror comedy that's gone straight to video. Read more

Ty Burr, Boston Globe: Preening and fleeing like a grunge-flick Bob Hope, Campbell's the whole show, but a little of his meta-referential shtick goes a long way. Read more

Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times: Perhaps the best thing that can be said about My Name Is Bruce is that Bruce Campbell has in fact appeared in worse movies. Read more

Tom Long, Detroit News: Bruce is a thoroughly silly low-budget film made for people who revel in thoroughly silly low-budget films. Fanboys rejoice. Filmistas beware. Read more

Lou Lumenick, New York Post: While sporadically funny, the sophomoric My Name Is Bruce is no Bubba Ho-Tep. Read more

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: Low midrange in the Master's oeuvre. Read more

Aaron Hillis, Village Voice: The only things missing from this unfunny Campbell love fest are a passable script, Sam Raimi's inventiveness, and a level of sophistication beyond nose-picking. Read more
