Initially I picked up this movie given the fact that the movie's cover was rather much reminiscent of a National Lampoon's movie cover of sorts. However, I have to admit that I wasn't exactly expecting the movie to be on scale with most comedies of the National Lampoon's ilk.
Sure, I had never heard about "Babe Camp" from writer and director Philip West, as I stumbled upon it by random chance here in 2023. So I wasn't sure what I was in for, aside from it being a comedy of sorts. But I wasn't really harboring much of any expectations to the movie, truth be told.
The storyline and narrative in "Babe Camp" was pretty sluggish and mundane. There wasn't really much of any entertainment, enjoyment or comedy to be found throughout the course of the 85 minutes that the movie ran for. And without any laughs, or an overly interesting storyline, it was quite a struggle and an ordeal to sit through the movie that Philip West conjured up.
"Babe Camp" is permeated by a feel of low budget in every aspect, and it sort of feels like a homemade movie or a high school film club project. So don't expect anything grand here.
Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list in "Babe Camp". There isn't a single famous performer on the cast list. And in fairness, I will say that the actors and actresses did attempt to make the movie watchable, but they just had the budget and the script working against them.
If you enjoy comedy movies, your money, time and effort is best spent elsewhere. Some of us suffered through this ordeal, so you don't have to. You're welcome!
My rating of "Babe Camp" lands on a two out of ten stars.
