Who Makes Movies? (2005) User Reviews

This one is for real

[imdb-6415 · 10/10 · 7 June 2005]

Okay, it's not hard to see why the "Who Makes Movies" PSA's are such an easy target of parody, which means there are a lot of spoofs around. I've seen quite a few of them and none of them are as well-scripted or shot as beautifully as this one. You'll have to see this one twice because I was laughing through most of the jokes and missing the ones that come after. Tom Konkle, who stars as our hero, Randy Palmer, does an amazing job in this role. If I didn't know better, I would have thought he was a fluffer in real life because he pulls it off so well. I was happy to see this short being screened at the Newport Beach Film Festival and know it'll have continued success at other film festivals as well.

Funniest short spoof

These guys are good. This is quite honestly the funniest short film I've ever seen. The spoof on "Who Makes Movies?" PSAs that run is classic, where else can you drop "Steve Jizz-o" and "Can I say black?". I saw this short at The Palm Beach International Film Festival and they were comically above and beyond all others. I hope that they can get this made into a feature mockumentary. If you hear of this film playing anywhere near you, within 427 miles, go see it, you will not be disappointed. You can also check these guys out at respect-porno.org. They have some funny stuff on their site and if you're nice to them, they'll send you a copy of "Who Makes Movies?"

laugh out loud

i saw who makes movies? debut at the palm beach international film festival this April. the short is hilariously funny, i laughed so much and wanted to see more! the cinematography was incredible, especially the foot-in-view. each line coincided with the camera angles, given the film a special quality unlike the norm. the dialogue was sarcastically funny, the dry humor had people laughing out loud the entire time. this short is a sure hit at any film festival, so keep your eye out for the title coming to your area. the director, chris luccy, has a bright future in film and it's just a matter of time before he's recognized for his unique talent in film-making. i look forward to seeing this short made into a feature!
