Best movie of this year hands down!

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Excellent but underrated film

Admirable film.

Its only saving grace is that its star Bruce Campbell is as charismatic as ever, the only difference being here he plays an exaggerated version of himself in a role which lampoons both his own persona and his illustrious 'B-movie' career. But 'My Name Is Bruce (2017)' honestly isn't clever enough to be anything other than one of the low-rent flicks it is trying so hard to satirise. The core of the feature is aiming to be similar to that of the 'Evil Dead' franchise, though there's nothing near the genuine scares or the slapstick brilliance that those films provide. If that series had actually finished back in the early nineties, as it had appeared, then perhaps this below-par version would've been enough to fill that deadite-shaped hole in the fans' lives. As it is though - with the fantastic 'Ash Vs. Evil Dead (2015)' television series up and rolling - you can get your fill of this stuff elsewhere and, trust me, it's usually much better. 5/10

My name is Bruce directed and starring Bruce Campbell plays a tribute to the B movie legend Bruce Campbell and he certainly takes the joke on the chin.The film takes its inspiration from The Seven Samurai rip off, A Bug's Life. Campbell thinks he is hired for an acting role when he comes to a cursed mining town to deal with an ancient Chinese demon and realises that he is meant to vanquish it and risk his life doing it.There is gore, decapitations, bad jokes, Campbell getting drunk and horny, Ted Raimi, shame Sam Raimi could not pop up. Its hokum and Campbell in effect gets to make his own low budget, schlock, tribute film.

Directed co-produced and starring the main man Bruce Campbell, judging by the title and the whole premise of the film would you say this is a vanity project?. Well I kinda think it is really and whether you actually like the film or not depends completely on your personal preference to Mr Campbell.The plot is as old as the hills, a parody comedy on Campbell himself. BC plays an over the top unlikable version of himself, a big movie star fallen from grace and eking out an existence in B-movie trash, but not popular B-movie trash. He is brought to a small town to help them defeat a supernatural problem involving a Chinese demon. Of course everyone thinks BC is the brave hero he is in his movies, but alas he's a selfish coward.The concept is nice but overused, it really is. The idea that Bruce plays a narcissistic big headed coward who is nothing like his film persona is also a nice idea...but again totally overused. The majority of this film is merely showing how much of an idiot Bruce's character is, mocking what he obviously goes through in his daily life with fanboys and movie producers plus parodying his schlock horror film career. So yes BC can have a laugh at himself it seems which is good but at the same time you do feel the whole thing is a tad of an ego trip. You may as well of called the film 'Bruce Campbell: The Ultimate B-Movie Action Hero'...as that's almost what its implying. Yep its probably true but really?.The other thing is nothing really happens in the film, its not really very exciting or fun. Sure there is some decapitations and blood and the odd bit of amusing dialog but its really quite dull. Its not helped by the unadventurous sets and location which all seem so...not eerie. Its obviously meant to be along the lines of previous BC films with a low budget and cheesy effects, mocking the Evil Dead franchise mainly, but it just looks so bland. All you get is the odd swirl of mist here and there.Then there is the demon, a big samurai demon even though he's suppose to be Chinese?. This guy looks like a ghostie from the Scooby Doo live action films! really he just looks lame. Yes again he's not meant to be a top of the range boogeyman with excellent makeup and costume but I just feel more could of been done to up the anti a bit. I mean it really does feel like a live action Scooby Doo flick half the time, could of at least had some more harsh language guys. It really feels like they wanted the project to be done by Raimi, but he didn't, so they tried their best to make it as close to that as possible.The finale of the film does show us why everything does look as it does this is true, but I don't really like that twist honestly. Feels like a cop out when it could of been a straighter parody with BC being the douchebag and having a real adventure to cope with. In the end it just kinda feels like a waste of time with nothing much happening and another cult franchise for Campbell to lap up and take all the glory with. I do like the guy but this film just feels too self indulgent for me truth be told, regurgitating all his best one liners over and over. I know that's part of the parody but it feels excessive. Could of been a great spooky comedy but its very tepid at best.4/10

Sometimes in good satire it is necessary to push the limits and I really admire Bruce Campbell for not shying away from it. There are a lot of things he satirizes here: stardom, cheesy movies, fans, people who cannot tell the difference between reality and a movie - in times of 'scripted reality' it probably will grow even harder to tell. He even drags it onto a meta-level, for of course this movie and the 'reality' it presents, ie the story-line featuring Gold Lick and Guan-Di, is again fake and only real in the context of the movie. And yet I fancy, if one listens close to some dialogue, there might be some real issues hidden underneath this make-believe.
