Bucky Larson: Born to be a Star is yet another reminder from Sandler and company that deep down inside there's something special in every single one of us.

| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 4, 2020

I'm not sure how many tedious sex jokes and humorless physical gags people can take before they run out of the theater screaming, but Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star certainly tests the limits.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Feb 11, 2013

Putrid and completely unfunny, 'Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star' is a torturous exercise for a viewer. I can't count the times I wanted to walk out of this ghastly excuse for a movie. Still, I stayed with it. I just couldn't bring myself to leave.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Dec 22, 2011

Working under the incorrect assumption that anything having to do with porn is hilarious, Bucky Larson is a consistently strained comedy without much charm or wit.

Full Review | Dec 7, 2011

Childish.

| Dec 7, 2011

Icky and repellent in ways it probably did not intend.

| Dec 7, 2011

Nothing to see here, kids.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Sep 16, 2011

The movie is embarrassingly bad.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 16, 2011

I go take seven aspirin for my current headache, I do need to let you know that there's a whole other actually funny movie going on inside this one, struggling to come out.

| Original Score: 0.5/5 | Sep 16, 2011

Don't put yourself through this train wreck of a movie. Unless of course you enjoy feeling like the screenwriter is hovering at your elbow during the film screaming "GET IT?!" after every joke.

| Original Score: 0.5/5 | Sep 16, 2011

This movie is dire, soul-crushing stuff.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 14, 2011

This is the Tom Brady who made The Hot Chick and The Comebacks, not the Tom Brady who plays football, although who's to say which of them is better at making movies?

| Original Score: F | Sep 14, 2011

All involved will be known as those who took part in the worst movie of the year

| Original Score: 0/10 | Sep 13, 2011

Swardson just doesn't rise to the occasion, apparently hoping that enormous buck teeth and a Dutch Boy wig will do the acting for him.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 13, 2011

This isn't even a series of skits, but a series of vague ideas for skits that nobody fleshed out.

| Original Score: F | Sep 12, 2011

Through all this, one feels nothing more strongly than an acute sympathy for all involved -- in particular Ricci, who gives her role more than it deserves, and Herrmann, a classy character actor who once won a Tony.

| Sep 12, 2011

Of course, Bucky Larson isn't one of the year's worst films because its laughs are poisoned and problematic-rather, it's one of the year's worst films because there aren't any laughs at all.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 12, 2011

A comic monstrosity...plays like an unfunny idea for a raunchy five-minute sketch that's been cruelly extended to an insufferable ninety-six minutes.

| Original Score: F | Sep 11, 2011

Swardson and the gang generally opt for silly over edgy and outrageous, but Bucky is just too dashed-off a character for the movie to get by on that.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 10, 2011

The worst Saturday Night Live sketch movie ever made that was never actually a Saturday Night Live sketch.

| Original Score: .5/4 | Sep 10, 2011
