The Godthumb

Steve Oedekerk is an exceptionally funny man, his works are among the best of the genre (Ace Ventura, The Nutty Professor, Kung Pow) and are an extremely enjoyable type of movie. This, part 2 of 6 in the Thumb Series is no exception.

As you can probably guess from the title, this is a spoof of the highly acclaimed 1972 hit "The Godfather" and I must say, this short serves the movie well.

There are many scenes of this short I laughed hard at, and it certifies that there is certainly such thing as a laugh a minute comedy.

This film is a great watch for fans of "The Godfather", Steve Oedekerk and the thumb series. Part 2 may be one of the weakest in the 6 but is definitely a good movie.

I rate this film 66%. Definitely good, and if you cant find it on DVD, it is on Youtube.

This is by far, the greatest thumb movie! This movie has all the spoofs off of "The Godfather". It has the shooting, the orange peel, the horse head, and some aspect of the dialogue. Steve Odekerk does it again with this laugh-out-loud thumbation film thats always a delight to see. I would give this movie an 8/10. I know that seems high for such a low-budget movie, but this movie deserves every star. More people should see this movie, and enjoy it for what it is. The idea of putting faces on thumbs seemed really stupid to me before I watched "The Godthumb". This film is completely original, and works to potential. It had to spoof off of a film that is widely loved and admired, and anyone would have difficulty doing that. Steve Odekerk makes it look so easy, and pays respect to "The Godfather". This movie should be loved and admired by all movie-goers everywhere.

This film is an incredibly silly parody of The Godfather,....starring thumbs with computer-generated faces! WAIT!!!! Keep reading--it's really not as dumb as it sounds and it is darn funny! Really! Steve Oedekerk has created several thumb parodies and they are all well worth watching. The Godthumb isn't the best (this would go to Thumb Wars and Thumbtanic), but it is one of the better ones and not to be missed. Plus, you actually get TWO films for the price of ONE!! Yes, in addition to The Godthumb, it has Electric Robo-boogie II!!! This, and all thumb movies, are okay for the entire family to watch. Especially if these people LIKE to occasionally watch a silly film without thinking too hard or being critical. Yup, if you have an Uncle Leon who always criticizes everything, DON'T tell him about it--watch the film when he's not around and let yourself go!

Not really. It's cute. Rent it though. Buying it will just make you want to kick yourself. Sorry Steve O. Not your best.
