Tarantino's hit men are replaced here with exterminators Jimmy (Paul Dinello) and Julius (Tommy Davidson). Subbing for Marsellus and coke addict Mia are compulsive eater Mimi (Julie Brown) and her husband Montello (Robert Costanzo). Instead of coffee-shop thieves Honey Bunny and Pumpkin, writer wannabe Bunny Roberts (Sandra Bernhard) arrives with the Forrest Gump-like Bumpkin (Dan Castellaneta). Psychos Nicky (Matthew Glave) and Vallory (Pamela Segall) disrupt the criss-crossing storylines, and so do nuns with guns. At the Independent Cafe, employees are costumed like various characters from independent films. The talented Juliette Lewis is mocked by Pamela Segall in a re-creation of a Natural Born Killers scene, and Kane Picoy impersonates Christopher Walken. When Plump Fiction played theatrically, it was accompanied by a three-minute short film Swing Blade (a spoof of Swingers and Sling Blade). ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

    Ummmm, no. Let this one run one late night as I did other stuff and even then, it was less than entertaining. My love of all things Tarantino kept it on to see if a funny moment could pop out of this spoof. One didn't.

    Parodies of other films. Some good humor, some dead dumb attempts at humor. Actually entertained me, though I had to wince from time to time. I like Julie Brown, so I may be generous with three stars.

    I could barely finish this, it was awful. I mean its funny the first like 5 minutes because it is so rediculous but it just gets boring.

    Like spoofs? Then you might like this one, I didn?t really care to much for the movie but it got a few little laughs out of me when it had my full attention. They spoof a few movies such as Forest Gump, Natural Born Killers, Pulp Fiction and a few others. I wouldn?t recommend the... read more movie but if your bored one day and have absolutely nothing else to do then ok????.. I wouldn?t even watch it then. It sucked that bad in my book.

    I think the only part I liked in this movie is when they refered to the movie Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.

Possibly the most 'unfunny' movie ever made.
