Movie Quick Review: Comic Book- The Movie

Comic Book: The Movie (2004)
Directed by Mark Hamill
Starring Mark Hamill, Donna D'Errico, Billy West

My Rating: 3 out of 5

This straight-to-video movie is about geeks, for geeks, and by a geek. Mark Hamill does a spoof of the geek-a-thons that are Conventions, playing a major geek himself. It's rather slow, and most of the jokes in it are aimed specifically at geeks (for example: one of the funniest jokes IMO is a tiny clip where Billy West stands near a picture of Phillip J. Fry from Futurama. He then turns to the camera and smiles. Only a geek would find that funny, since West was the voice of Fry. It's little stuff like that that fill this movie). If you're a geek at heart, you will enjoy it.
