The Big Bus (1976)
1/10
Contrary to this other guy's review...
21 May 2005
This just might be one of the worst movies made. A million movies, particularly in the 70s, predating the Zucker brothers (airplane etc), used this kind of humor. The Zucker brothers were the first to do it well. Prior to them, it's garbage and horribly, horribly unfunny.

Not even campy enough to be a cult classic. You will just groan and wonder when it's over.

(and IMDb will not accept this review unless I make it longer, as if there was anything more to say about the film. It's just bad, okay? Like really really really bad. I feel like I'm writing an essay for school that has to be 500 words. I only stopped on this big bus page because I was showing my friend here that this movie I was describing does actually exist. hard as it is to believe they made a movie this stupid, they really did. The 70s had a lot of really bad comedies like this, that weren't even very funny then, and when you add how dated it is now, it's just horribly tedious. I read this other guy's review about how amazingly funny this movie is, Airplane-quality and all that, and found his review funnier than anything in The Big Bus. decided to write a brief review as a warning that if you're looking for a campy 70s comedy, there are films in this line of sludge that are better, such as Car Wash. Some films aren't even amusing in a camp sense when they've lost all the rest of their appeal... this is one of them. Okay IMDb, care to take this review yet?)
