Captivating movie !
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Spoofs are a very hit and miss thing type of movie background. When done right, it can be a zany adventure that you seem to have a permanent smile whacked on your face from start to finish like Flying High, Miss. Cast Away and to a much lesser extent, Scary Movie.But when spoofs are done badly, it really shows. They can go from being an enjoyable film that makes fun of other films to being one reference of movie after movie with stupid pop culture references that are vomit inducing (Friedburg, Seltz).This is a great spoof, it has zany humor, accomplishes what is promised and best of all, has the smile on face factor that makes this type of movie, however stupid the humor is, very, very enjoyable.This is, by the way the first in the 6 part series of Thumb movies and this is probably the best (Maybe not as good as Part 6, Thumbtanic) and is an all round good way to spend 21 minutes. It is worth a watch for fans of the art of spoof.Overall, give it a try, and if you cant find it on DVD, it is on Youtube.I rate this 69%.
i first seen this movie in hem, it was cheap so i thought i would buy it for the laugh. i thought aw its going to be a comedy thats so crap that its funny but ITs NOT! it was rotten seeing thumbs walking around, it was like spitting image, vulgar and unwatchable. i was looking at my watch every couple of minutes waiting for it to end!. it was the worst movie I've ever seen in my whole life. i ended up throwing the DVD away the next day, thumb wars and thumbtacking was the worst movies ever.don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!don't see it, burn it!
Well after seeing this it is no Gone with the wind. I in fact hated it but some parts were funny, they really did not make very much sense but the sense they made was very funny I give it a 2 out of 10. the 2 is because it wasn't very funny and and the stuff they had was Sex jokes and I do not like sex jokes.
Thumb Wars is a nice, odd little parody on the now culturally mythical original Star Wars. The short interview/making of sequence following the filmette added to the enjoyment when you saw the number of people and the amount of effort which went into filming some thumbs (and one foot).It's true that some of the jokes made are pretty much standard fare (Leah is Princess Bunhead - with cinnamon buns for hair, a Stormtrooper comments on Darth Vader's "cool" voice). However, the curious effect of faces superimposed on thumbs, some of the attention to detail and references to the original (the bar scene), and some of the just plain whacked out humour (the naked X-wing pilot) are what maintain the pace.2 minutes longer and I think I would have begun to lose interest, but for something different and a good laugh Thumb Wars does the job. The preview for Thumb Tanic looked good too.
