Pitka's village should've been called Painenmahkeester because that's exactly what this movie was for the audience.

I know it's cliche to say but this channel is so underrated, especially for how many years you've been putting out content

You forgot one thing: Mike Myers himself regrets this movie, even poking at its failure when he appeared on SNL as Dr Evil in December 2014.

When I saw Val Kilmer's cameo in this film. I begged him to put on the Batsuit and beat the ever living crap out of Mike Myers' character.

This was an episode that really could have used the “Celebrities in need of a paycheck” counter.

As a Hindu myself, I am not sure if I should be offended or just dumbfounded at this movie. Sean’s review is excellent as always though.

"Because I don't want this review to be 2 hours long!" To be honest, I would totally watch Sean rant about this and Disaster Movie for 2 hours. No hesitation.

I will say this for Mike Myers and this movie. The movie was terrible, Myers admitted as much, and he mostly disappeared to reassess his career. He didn’t try to make a sequel to bank off the reputation of the first like James Nguyen. He doesn’t have a Mariah Carey-esque rider forbidding people from mentioning the movie. He didn’t make a Shyamalan style movie about how he’s a misunderstood genius in his field. And he hasn’t gone after critics of the movie with Rob Schneider fury. Nope, he made a mistake, admitted such, then quit while he still had a semblance of a good name. And that’s the classiest thing a Razzie nominee or winner can do.

Ah yes, the movie that made Mike Myers’ career a thing of the past.

I remember people saying that the "Mariska Hargitay" gag was the funniest, most clever joke in the film when it came out.

Bad comedies are so much worse than other bad movies. You can fail at drama and accidentally be funny, but I don't think I've ever seen something fail to be funny and accidentally be dramatically compelling.

“….and Chopra got veeeerrrrryyyy silent.” Smeghead is the legend of delivery. 😂

Poor Ben Kingsley, he is actually Indian, and he had to depict his own culture as an Orientalist joke, told by Mike Myers, who was friends with the known Orientalist: Deepak Chopra.

Disaster Movie sucks way harder than The Love Guru, completely agree! Great video!

Having Deepak Chopra praise your spiritual wisdom is a bit like having Michael Bay praise your cinematic vision.

The most unbelievable part is the leafs making it to the Stanley Cup finals. And I've been a leafs fan my whole life.

The only good thing about this movie is that Verne Troyer stole all the props, for his little office gag scene and loved that he was able to have furniture the right size.

I think the difference between Disaster Movie and the Love Guru is that the Love Guru was trying to be a parody of one specific thing. It didn't do it *well*, but it at least had some thread of an idea about what it was supposed to parody. Disaster Movie throws random mid-2000s pop culture shit at the screen and makes fart jokes. It has no aim, no direction, it's a grift in every sense of the word.

The movie that killed Mike Myers' career.

The Love Guru and Disaster Movie: Both are the cure for insomnia.

Pouring tea through his nose I guess was a joke about neti pots. As for Myers's head on a kid's body, I'd say he "borrowed" that from the George Lopez show where, whenever there was a flashback to George's childhood, they'd paste his head onto a kid's body. There it made sense, though, because there was a running joke about how big his head had always been.

Sean may be a funny guy, but the moments he just stares ahead emotionless unable to say ANYTHING on what just happened has to be some of his funniest gags (Sean is also a stronger minded man than me, I would be unable to not react with a frustrated wave of the head and misery in my eyes just thinking of it even if I was trying to act unemotional for the camera. "What's next? Fat Bastard is getting his own movie?" Damn it, Sean, don't jinx it, the way Hollywood is creatively bankrupt, that is not impossible even with the franchise being old and done with (90s nostalgia is a thing now and we're getting in time for 2000s nostalgia).

My dad thought about buying the movie on DVD when he saw the trailer, I'm glad he forgot to.

Seltzer-Berg movies are the worst thing that ever happened to parody movies. They essentially killed the genera. Airplane, these movies are not. Airplane still holds up today as the poster child for the parody movie, and it still holds up today. All Seltzer-Berg films do is pop culture references. And that's it. That's the joke. They're a one trick pony. Airplane also has some pop culture parody in there. But here's the thing. They wrote all kinds of non-pop culture comedy in there, that works and still holds up. The Seltzer-Berg movies have NONE of that other comedy in there. It's like they saw Airplane and completely missed all the reasons that it was funny and is still funny. Seltzer-Berg movies completely lack comedy completely if you aren't familiar with the stuff that they're referencing. You can't say the same for a movie like Airplane. It's still funny regardless if you don't know some of the references.

Ah yes, *another* movie by Mike Myers I wanted to see so desperately as a child, but was denied access to by parents who had better sense than I did. And yet, they didn’t stop me from seeing Little Miss Sunshine at age 14 through a library rental. Eh, at least that one was funny.

It's movies like this that remind me why Hollywood banks on "safe" reboots/remakes and doesn't go for anything new anymore...

AKA: The reason you don’t see Mike Myers in movies anymore

To be fair, Kumail Nanjiani actually does pronounce “can’t” with an “ah” sound, but he’s Pakistani, not Indian.

15:03 “We are in Seltzerberg Hell.” “Whoops, tautology!” Lmaoooo perfect

This makes The Cat in the Hat look like an Oscar contender.

Considering this has Mike Myers and knowing what the internet's obsessed with nowadays, I'm surprised this isn't more of a cult classic

Justin Timberlake, Jim Gaffigan, Steven Colbert and the musical numbers are the best parts of this movie. That’s probably a maximum of 13 mins of the film.

I'm currently quarantining at my dad's house due to catching COVID and this was just what I needed to brighten my day. Thanks, Sean. (And yes, I agree that Disaster Movie was worse.)

We needed a “celebrities who needed a paycheck” counter. What was with the unused talent in this movie??

I was not expecting that Hellsing Ultimate Abridged reference.

Would mentioning grass really have been a drug reference? I mean, IT'S AN ELEPHANT. Most of what they do all day is eat plants.

"What was Mike Myers thinking?" implies there was a thought process in making that movie at all.

The career killer. I can’t say if this one or The Master of Disguise is the greatest train wreck for a former SNL actor. But Jack and Jill is up there as well

The most unrealistic part of this movie is that the Maple Leafs won the Stanley Cup. :P

To be fair, John Oliver's career was just getting off the ground. He'd done stand-up, and a couple seasons of 'Mock The Week.' Ehh, it was a paycheck.

I love how you and Double Toasted (my other favorite channel) reviewed the same movie within a week of each other. Great minds think alike 😊

I distinctly remember this film, as it was the first time that I saw a film trailer and thought, "That looks absolutely terrible." Even when I was 11, I had enough standards to realize that this thing was trash just from the trailer.

Every single moment (shown here) from this movie not only fails to make me laugh, it also has the unmistakable stench of Trying WAY Too Hard. Like between the musical numbers and stunt casting, they never had a chance to relax and see where the comedy might develop naturally from the characters, situations, and performers.

I’m also so sick and tired of people defending movies like “disaster movie”, “meet the Spartans” etc. because “they’re meant to be stupid, it’s a parody”. Just because something is a parody doesn’t mean you have to make it stupid, while on the topic, thank you for saying disaster movie was worse because I agree, it’s not only worse than the other nominees, but in seltzerberg’s entire filmography, my brother wanted to do a recorded audio commentary for fun and we would mock the film rifftrax style, but the microphone he had made our voices too soft so we had to record the audio multiple times…as a result I had to watch the movie four times in a row, and each rewatch I hated it more and more. So yes, “Disaster Movie” should have won the award, to me it would be like if instead of “Jack and Jill” winning worst picture they picked one of the other nominees, nothing came close. At least “Jack and Jill” won that award so there some justice in the world

"I am SUFFERING and YOU WILL SUFFER WITH ME!" LMFAO 🤣 As if we haven't already. Oh the plight and the pain... I'll just count my blessings I missed both this and DISASTER MOVIE in theaters!

14:48 Yeah, The Love Guru was godawful, but it was definitely Oscar worthy compared to Seltzerberg's horrendous Disaster Movie.

The Happening was released in the same year, and that was way funnier than Love Guru & Seltzerberg.

I honestly think Jason friedberg and Aaron seltzer’s disaster movie should’ve won razzie worst picture how bad is it the #1 lowest rated movie of all time on IMDb that’s basically saying it’s worse than manos the hands of fate or alone in the dark

7:03 You can tell Sean's screaming internally here, that's some impressive restraint. Also, what the hell happened to Mike Myers during the 2000's anyway? It was like he was intentionally trying to destroy his career or something.

OK, I don't think anybody mentioned that, so I will: chastity belts (male and female) are designed with things like urinating and cleaning in mind.

And also. Myers being having a cameo when the leafs win makes sense. He's a huge fan and owns a small part of them. So if they ever did win. He would be at that game. Just saying

9:49 Jane Bullard = play on Harold Ballard, Maple Leafs owner 1961-1990 Punch Cherkov = play on George "Punch" Imlach, Maple Leafs coach 1958-1969

I thought I had seen this movie but when there was no Heather Graham, I realized it was "The Guru".

Anyone desperate enough to see more of the "jokes" who have enough sense not to watch the actual movie should check out Film Brain's review. It's an old one but one of his best videos.

At least 2007 had There Will Be Blood and No Country for Old Men

"You hear it too, right?" I'm pretty sure that was intentional...sadly.

I feel so bad for Mike Myers. Fingers crossed he gets a true comeback. Guy is such a comedic legend. I love his work so much.

R.I.P Verne Troyer

Well, at we still have the Shrek movies. Mike Myers was great in those.

The elephant bumper sticker should've said, "How's my elephant riding?"

"Daniel Tosh is not too good for this movie. He belongs here. In hell." 😆 shots fired.

A new Excrement episode? Christmas came early this year 🤩 Thank you, Santa Sean!

The movie the destroyed Mike Myers Career.

Fun fact, a man named Jack Yates was working for a promotional company who had promotional copies of the movie so he burned a full copy of this movie and released it to torrent sites before its theatrical release and was downloaded 85,000 times. He eventually got caught and was sentenced to 6 months in prison, I swear to god this is true

"Prodigious! Ben Kingsley in A BAD MOVIE!!"

5:09 this movie was literally plugging “Law and Order: SVU.”

Ash: "Guys literally only want one thing and it's fucking disgusting." Cinematic Excrement Movie Review shows up in my feed:

The Leafs in the Finals is probably the most (un)believable thing in this p.o.s-looking clusterbomb!

This is the movie that sinked Mike Myers career like the Titanic.

I remember seeing ads for this movie CONSTANTLY

I remember seeing trailers for this. I was a tween and even I though it was appalling.

I always love reading your warnings at the beginning.

Another holiday movie next time? Here are my guesses: 1) Santa Claus Conquers the Martians 2) The Nutcracker: The Untold Story 3) Black Christmas (2006)

can't you believe in 1982 Ben Kingsley played Mahatma Gandhi and has won many awards for his role? This makes his role in Iron man 3 look more respectable

At least Mike Myers took a chance and tried to make something original.

Thanks for going through the pain for us, Smeghead! I grew up on all the great Myers stuff from Shrek to Austin Powers, so happy I steered clear from this garbage!

I saw this opening weekend with a friend I don’t even talk to anymore. I still feel about about making them see it. 😔

I love the sad introspective music you have during this whole video playing in the background like it's some sort of thought piece art-house indie film. When it's just Mike Myers putting a gun under his career's chin and pulling the trigger.

Thet shouid have had Mariska Hargitay in the last scene, angrily serving papers to the guru for using her name without permission.

The Elephants having sex was worse when they cut to the two fat people making out afterwards, where the film compares the elephants to fat people.

Thanks for another great review, Sean. Your hands down one of the best reviewers on KZfaq!

Made my day! I so enjoy these reviews. From the disclaimer to the end credits. Great work as always! :D

I feel ashamed the NHL said yes to this

If the "can't" pronounced the way I think it was the it was probably intentional given what the movie's like.

Mike Myers actually wasn't "riding high" at this time. His non-Shrek career was pretty dead after a couple of things happened. First, he walked off of the Sprockets film adaptation in 2000 (I've heard it called Dieter and Dieter's Day). He did this with pre-production complete and money already spent with less than a week before shooting. And he did so because he did not like the screenplay, which he himself wrote. Universal sued him for large $ because they had to pay everybody and didn't get a movie. As a settlement, he agreed to star in "The Cat and the Hat". If you've seen this movie, you know it's utterly terrible. This failure, combined with his reputation for being difficult or risky, kept him from doing anything but Shrek for a few years. This was his big attempt at a comeback, not the high point.

Ah early Kanye West appearance.

oooof, I wonder if Jessica Alba has ever even met an agent; this, the two F4 movies, Good Luck Chuck, Honey...

I recently came across a KZfaq video about women helping men with their inner child or something like that. Anyway the guy talking in the video mentioned "intimacy" or "into me you see", which is a direct Love Guru quote but he didn't realize that!!! I was laughing my ass off when I saw it!!!! All I said in the comments was "Love Guru??" But got no response....lol...

Ah, nice to see more content from you, Mr. Smeghead.

I love how Deepak gave people flack for judging the movie by its trailer while defending a movie that he didn't see...😂

I'm glad this channel was on my recommended. Absolutely subbed.

This movie is just Mike Myers being somewhat interested in Hindu cultures and customs and completely desecrating all of it in his Shrek voice

Man, I LOVE this channel!

But Sean, I would GLADLY watch a two hour video from you ❤

Another great review! Thanks!!!

I can already imagine a funnier movie: a Desi shamelessly remakes himself into a guru for the money and women, and specializes in uttering greeting-card banalities for rich, stupid people...

Wait a minute…..E…I…E…I…O…..Oh, dear God. Why??? Someone please kill me now.

Don't Worry, Sean. It's almost over, and I think you've covered most of the recent winners.

...there is no Eat at Joe's. Only boredom.

Verne troyer's role in masked rider (as ferbus's stunt double that required movement scenes) gave him more dignity than the love guru
