  I'll admit I had only watched the Evil Dead trilogy before watching this. Considering I didn't know very much on Bruce Campbell, I quite enjoyed 'My Name Is Bruce'. I've watched it quite a few times because there are plenty of references to previous Campbell films; from simple one liners, to obvious yet clever cameos. While it does have some rather funny moments, it's not suppose to be taken as a serious film. This to me, makes it a more humorous film than it seems. Although some scenes are better than others, this is one film that should be given a try for horror-comedy and especially Bruce Campbell fans.

  Very good horror comedy starring Bruce Campbell as himself, My Name is Bruce is a fun film from start to finish. Though it could have been better, this is nonetheless a must see for fans of Bruce Campbell. This film is a parody of the actor's career, and he does it beautifully. This is a very well done horror comedy, and is one of the best films that Campbell has done in many years. The fact that the film parodies his films adds to the enjoyment of the film. This is not something to take seriously whatsoever. This is pure B movie fare and it definitely will appeal to fans of low-budget films. For what it is, this is an enjoyable film that is a bit underrated. The film does leave room for improvement. Even for its flaws, My Name Is Bruce is a fun ride that is a must see for B movie horror fans. Although the script is uneven, the film has enough good moments to make this a watchable film. I found that the film was pretty funny, and that Bruce Campbell did a good job. I agree that the film could have been better, but for what it is, it's nonetheless a good little comedy horror flick that not meant to be taken seriously. I don't understand why this film has been received so poorly. I felt it was a pleasant time waster, one that certainly was comical and fun despite its flaws. This is a film worth watching, and if you love Bruce Campbell, it definitely isn't something fans should skip out on. This not a film that deserves all the flack it has received, and is much better than what most people have said about it. But with every film, it could have been reworked slightly to make it really a memorable film, but as a whole, it's a mindless comedy horror flick worth checking out.

  Truly hilarious film in places with some wicked lines from the man Campbell :) The plot, look and acting is really B-Movie and cheesy (almost like a 'Scooby Doo' episode) but that's how it suppose to be...just silly nonsense. I love the way the whole film is a send up… More
  Truly hilarious film in places with some wicked lines from the man Campbell :) The plot, look and acting is really B-Movie and cheesy (almost like a 'Scooby Doo' episode) but that's how it suppose to be...just silly nonsense. I love the way the whole film is a send up of Campbells real life...in a sense, being famous for making tacky crap films that happen to do well basically, its not an ego trip atall its really witty, lose and Campbell has a laugh at himself which is good to see. Good funny stuff for all B-Movie Bruce lovers :)

  This parody on the "movie star is forced to safe the day" genre has one major problem: it uses all the plot elements it makes fun of. It's always the same: somehow the star assumes it's all an act, realizes the threat, feels and returns to safe the day. The fact that B-movie hero Bruce Campbell makes fun of his image and adds plenty of inside jokes from his career into the mix here is very likable, of course. And some of the gags are really funny. Others are pretty lame. Overall the film is way too predictable and silly to be fun. It feels more like a fan project than an actual motion picture. But at least a few really pretty goth kick the bucket.

  Bruce Campbell movies make me always chuckle.

  This should have been a great film. Unfortunately Bruce totally misses the mark. When spoofing your own films its important the film is a) Better than the ones your spoofing b) Funny c) Original. This film was none of the above. I still love Bruce Campbell, just a little less than I did before :o(

  2.5 stars simply because it's Bruce Campbell trying hard to make fun of his failed career, although he kind of fails at that too. The first 5 minutes had me real excited, but then it quickly turned into humor fit for people that liked Alien Apocalypse.

  Totally and utterly spiffy, cheesy and awesome to the max. :D It's BRUCE, what else ya gotta know? :P Review....to be continued.

  The shame of this film is that if someone unfamiliar with The Chin were to watch it, they'd have no idea why Bruce is so adored by his fanbase. In fact, they might even be turned off from ever wanting to find out. Silly and low budget, and sure, a fun idea, but Bruce deserves… More
  The shame of this film is that if someone unfamiliar with The Chin were to watch it, they'd have no idea why Bruce is so adored by his fanbase. In fact, they might even be turned off from ever wanting to find out. Silly and low budget, and sure, a fun idea, but Bruce deserves better self-parody than this.

  Bad jokes, monster fighting and darkly lit scenes. It cannot touch the excellent "Evil Dead" films.

• A.D. V

  
  For Campbell fans (like me) its an in-joke treat. If your not a Bruce fan then SCREW YOU! No, I mean...you should still check it out because its a stupidly funny light-hearted horror/comedy that hits more than it misses.

  A really enjoyable and ridicuosly entertaining comedy thats loaded with genuine laugh-out-load moments and outragiously violent deaths. Bruce Campbell is back bringing the silliness, charm and humor that is expected. Directing a real deal cult classic that you will have a blast watching. The most original and brilliant comedy satire on the horror movie genre in some time. Campbell has a great time poking fun at his cult hero career and showing us something undeniablely fun. A hilarious romp of genious. A well-written and surprisingly well crafted flick.

  Having just watched the screener of "My Name Is Bruce", the latest comedy-horror starring Bruce Campbell as himself, all I really have to say is, no matter how big of a Bruce Campbell fan you are, you probably aren't going to like it. For those who don't know, the plot basically consists of Bruce playing a not exactly true to life version of himself and taking on a murderous Chinese god of bean-curd called Guan-Di who was accidentally unleashed by a teenage Bruce Campbell fan. It's hardly up to the standard of "Army of Darkness" and for those expecting anything similar to "The Evil Dead", you'd better think again. This movie is total crap from beginning to end with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. It's very cheaply done, lines are delivered with no apparent comedic timing (just look at the "I can speak...what's the word... English" one in the trailer), and the gore scenes are substandard even for the worst independents out there. The monster, Guan-Di, is the most ludicrous thing I've seen outside of the CGI pinata in "Survival Island"! I really don't know why Bruce Campbell went ahead with this project since it's bound to be panned by everybody except his most extreme fanboys and, even then, anybody who praises anything in "My Name is Bruce" is just likely to lose all credibility in front of their peers. If this is supposed to be an example of bad filmmaking just to be funny then it has failed since it's not funny and is just bad. I suppose it could be defended by saying that it's all in fun and is a great big parody of one of Hollywood's most famous B movie actors as seen by himself but, if this is an example of Bruce Campbell's directorial skills then he'd be better off just sticking to cameo roles in "Spiderman". I'm sure he'll get them too since he let Sam Raimi's weird looking brother Ted appear in at least half a dozen roles in this film. I hated it. Like most of you reading this, I loved Bruce Campbell in "The Evil Dead" and "Evil Dead 2", wasn't so convinced by "Army of Darkness" and watched his numerous TV appearances with a mixture of delight and horror as he went from good roles like Autolycus in "Xena: Warrior Princess" to absolutely atrocious parts such as "Jack of All Trades". This was certainly nowhere near the quality of "Bubba Ho-Tep". I was really looking forward to seeing "My Name Is Bruce" but it turned out to be one of the most disappointing things that I've ever had the misfortune to watch. For that reason, I've given it the lowest rating possible.

  Very funny movie.Really for die hard BC fans.Few in jokes and friends of BC from some of he's early work.Its slapstick all the way and some really bad acting but that apart of the fun here.

  Directed by and starring Bruce Campbell as himself, "My Name is Bruce" is an amusing and silly movie about the difference between reality and fantasy. This would be a vanity project if there was any narcissism involved but Bruce Campbell portrays himself as a lecherous, cowardly and egotistical actor, usually found in B-movies playing on Saturday nights on Syfy.(And he still manages to get grief for "Serving Sara.") So despite usually playing heroic types fighting monsters, Bruce Campbell would be the last person to fight a supernatural menace but that is exactly what happens when Guan-Di(James J. Peck), guardian of the dead and bean curd, threatens the small town of Gold Lick, population 339.(Of course there is no such thing as monsters...) That does not stop Jeff(Taylor Sharpe), his biggest fan, from kidnapping him, allowing him to think this is all a part of a birthday surprise thought up by his agent(Ted Raimi).

  I could've been a song with no music. I could've been a cloud with no sky. I could've been a sea with no water. But those are hard costumes to create. Also, Coraline was really good.

• Duncan R

  
  Somehow, Bruce Campbell poking fun at himself wasn't as awesome as I thought it would be. It was a lot of fun towards the later half, though.

• Jon O

  
  It starts off strong, but ends up being constrained by an ultra-low budget. However, if you're a Bruce Campbell fan you could do a hell of a lot worse.

• William G

  
  Tongue-in-cheek, to be sure, but just not funny.

• FanGirl B

  
  This one is strictly for the Bruce fans. If you're not a Bruce Cambell fan the good stuff is gonna go right over your head.
