The film was released on January 26, 2007, and it was unanimously panned by critics. Many have considered this to be one of the worst films of all time. Despite this, it was fairly successful at the box office, earning $86.9 million worldwide, more than four times its $20 million budget.

Lucy finds that her adoptive father, a museum curator, has been attacked by Silas. Before dying, he gives clues that lead her to a "Golden Ticket" in a vending machine candy bar. Fellow orphans Edward, a disillusioned monk trainee; Susan, a displaced adopted girl; and Peter, a mutant at Mutant Academy who is often teased for his chicken-like wings, all find Golden Tickets. All four meet up at Willy's Chocolate Factory. Willy reveals his plot to use them all as a special ingredient in his treats.

Attempting to hide from the maniacal Willy, Lucy finds a wardrobe. On the other side, in the middle of a wintry forest, she finds Mr. Tumnus, who welcomes Lucy to Gnarnia and warns her of danger. The others follow Lucy to Gnarnia, and Edward meets the White Bitch. She convinces him to trap the other orphans in order to become the king of Gnarnia in her White Castle.

All four go to Tumnus' house, where they discover their relation to each other in a copy of the famous painting The Last Supper, and that the White Bitch killed their parents. They ally themselves with Harry Beaver, Tumnus' life partner, to defeat the White Bitch.

Edward sneaks off to the White Bitch's castle. When he refuses to reveal to her where the others are, she flashes him her breasts, hypnotizing him into giving up the information on the orphans, then imprisons him. The White Bitch sends Silas after the trio; Tumnus apparently sacrifices himself to ensure their safety.

Afterwards, the orphans meet a graying Harry Potter, along with a balding Ron Weasley and a pregnant Hermione Granger at Hogwarts. They all help Lucy, Susan, and Peter train for the war against the White Bitch.

Upon finishing their training, Lucy, Susan, and Peter head to the camp of Aslo. Aslo agrees to help Edward and manages to kill Silas, but while breaking Edward out, he is slain by the White Bitch. As the orphans have a pre-battle party with their allies, Susan gets drunk and vomits everywhere, disgusting their army enough that nobody shows up to help the orphans the next day. The four siblings engage the White Bitch in battle and all (except for Peter) are killed. Peter then finds a magic remote and uses its powers to revive his siblings.

Together, they kill the army, defeat the White Bitch, and stop her plan. Peter declares the White Bitch will receive a fair and just trial in the new Gnarnia, but Jack's wheel accidentally crushes her to death. The four are crowned the new rulers of the land. Tumnus then shows up, having survived his battle. Decades later, the four now-elderly rulers find the wardrobe again and go through it. They appear moments after they had left, young again. They meet Borat, who congratulates them on a happy ending, but then, Jack's wheel accidentally runs over the quartet, killing them. Borat then says his iconic "NOT!" before turning around and clapping his buttocks, ending the film.

A. O. Scott of The New York Times called the film "irreverent and also appreciative, dragging its satiric prey down to the lowest pop-cultural denominator" and added, "The humor is coarse and occasionally funny. The archly bombastic score . . . is the only thing you might call witty. But happily, Jennifer Coolidge and Fred Willard show up ... to add some easy, demented class."[10] Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle thought "only a complete idiot could think Epic Movie is remotely funny or worth making at all." Describing it as "so bereft of anything resembling wit or inspiration", he wondered, "What were the perpetrators, uh filmmakers, thinking?"[24] In the Los Angeles Times, Alex Chun called the film "nothing more than a disjointed series of scenes and references cobbled together as a backdrop for sophomoric humor."[25] Ronnie Scheib of Variety said it was "epically unfunny" and "unlikely to join the list of blockbusters it lampoons."[26] The Radio Times said "There's very little that's epic about this senseless parody, but then there's very little that's funny about it, either... It's mind-numbingly, tediously unamusing and is so devoid of imagination it even parodies self-mocking films."[4]The Chicago Reader described the film as being "the cinematic equivalent of a tapeworm", while in his review for The Guardian, John Patterson wrote that "Epic Movie is an epic catastrophe, or an artistic failure of epic proportions, or even an Emetic Piece of Insufferable Crap".[27] The Times expressed surprise that "Penn would stoop so low".[28]

Epic Movie was nominated for three Golden Raspberry Awards at the 28th ceremony: Worst Remake or Rip-off, Worst Supporting Actress (Carmen Electra), and Worst Screenplay (Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer).[29][30]

This second film is different. There is plenty of action, enough for several very good movies. It starts off exactly where the first one ends. Paul meets Chani (Zendaya), a Fremen woman he has dreamed of for years, and he and his mother join up with her group, led by Stilgar (Javier Bardem). Paul faces many challenges, including riding the giant sandworms that roam the desert and provide the spice. But Stilgar believes that Paul will lead a great insurrection. Lady Jessica encourages that notion because she believes her son is the intended leader of a new order, but while joining in rites, drinks a poison that will provide memories of all the Fremen women leaders. Unfortunately, she is also pregnant, and we have the weird experience of hearing the daughter in her womb talking directly to her.

Things move onto a bigger stage as the evil Harkonnans show up. They include the overly large Baron Vladimir (Stellan Skarsgrd), his nasty nephew Rabban (Dave Bautista) and most vital, his psycho nephew Feyd-Rautha (Austin Butler). As the Fremen conquer Arrakis, the Emperor (Christopher Walken) and his sharp daughter Princess Irulan (Florence Pugh) bring all the forces of the empire against them. The battle scenes are brilliant.

Although some critics have argued that the whole thing is a glorification of the rise of a dictator, we actually see Paul fighting to avoid a messianic role. He would prefer a quiet life with Chani, but there are forces pushing hard for him to lead a revolution, one that will eventually cost millions of lives. Director Denis Villeneuve is wise enough to allow us to see that there may be many choices, and some may prove horrible.

This is a sci-fi masterpiece. It will rank with movies like Star Wars and Avengers Endgame. If you like this genre, do not miss it. Even if you simply like brilliant movies, this one is for you. It took many months last year to get to the really brilliant films. This year, we got one on the first day of March.

I come to bury Epic Movie, not to praise it.
The Critics say it was atrocious,
And a Critic is an honorable man.
I speak not to disprove what Critics spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.

the second-best thing to perfection is often the near-miss, the disreputable and even the despised. Next to discovering a new director, planting a flag in an uncharted national cinema or sitting next to Zooey Deschanel at an event, few things please a critic more than polishing a tarnished career or taking on a dubious cause, particularly if everyone else really hated it.

The purpose of these scenes is to introduce the four lead characters, Peter, Susan, Edward, and Lucy (in reverse order) and the transition from the last of these scenes is the most ingenious and disingenuous of all, morphing school hall lockers into a chocolate factory building. The transition is very slow, inviting us to laugh at its artificiality, like the contrived nature of the scene itself in which the four characters first meet each other.

Of course Epic Movie is not a great film. It inherits flaws from Date Movie, namely overlong pauses between dialogue. While such awkward pauses were part of the parody and comedy in Team America, in Date Movie they were simply badly timed pauses to accommodate embarrassingly absent laughter. Epic Movie has similarly slow editing but it is not as obvious as Date Movie.

A momentary spoof of Paris Hilton seems jarringly pass in light of its last-second topicality: references to Lord of the Rings, the epicmost of epic franchises, are conspicuously absent. Indeed Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the only pre-Narnia movie parodied (a three-word quotation from American Pie notwithstanding).

Epic has nothing to do with the size of the cast, the budget or any other physical aspects of the production. Epic scale is a measure of the scope of a character's inner journey. Look, for example, at Sydney Pollack's classic, Jeremiah Johnson, one of my all-time favorites. The film has very few characters and almost no sets, having been shot in the Rocky Mountains (though setting itself can be a powerful presence and contribute mightily to epic atmosphere). The film's running time is short and even its score is simple, characterized by a single male voice and a guitar. But what an epic Jeremiah Johnson is: a sailor leaves the sea to become a mountain man. He encounters love and loss, the extremes of fear and courage; he wants no responsibility and yet accepts it, with massive personal consequences; he comes to respect his enemies; he comes to know himself. If that ain't an epic, what is?

Faith, the affirmation of life even when it's beyond our understanding, is both the seed and the harvest of an epic. Part of the majesty of making an epic movie is the way it forces you as a filmmaker to confront and justify your own core beliefs, precisely because the magical qualities that make a film epic are, almost by definition, inexpressible. And it is the expression of a timeless truth that an audience reads below the surface of your film that makes an audience recognize it as an epic.
