Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star Ratings & Reviews
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
Icky and repellent in ways it probably did not intend.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
Nothing to see here, kids.
Common Sense Media
Jeffrey M. Anderson
The movie is embarrassingly bad.
Movies.com
Dave White
I go take seven aspirin for my current headache, I do need to let you know that there's a whole other actually funny movie going on inside this one, struggling to come out.
Movies.com
Grae Drake
Don't put yourself through this train wreck of a movie. Unless of course you enjoy feeling like the screenwriter is hovering at your elbow during the film screaming "GET IT?!" after every joke.

Jackie K. Cooper
All involved will be known as those who took part in the worst movie of the year
Film.com
Eric D. Snider
This isn't even a series of skits, but a series of vague ideas for skits that nobody fleshed out.
Variety
Andrew Barker
Through all this, one feels nothing more strongly than an acute sympathy for all involved -- in particular Ricci, who gives her role more than it deserves, and Herrmann, a classy character actor who once won a Tony.
Boxoffice Magazine
David Ehrlich
Of course, Bucky Larson isn't one of the year's worst films because its laughs are poisoned and problematic-rather, it's one of the year's worst films because there aren't any laughs at all.
Boston Globe
Tom Russo
Swardson and the gang generally opt for silly over edgy and outrageous, but Bucky is just too dashed-off a character for the movie to get by on that.
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
You may or may not laugh, but at least you'll be closer to death and no better for it.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
This god-awful, unfunny, stinkingly putrid sketch-comic movie has exactly one snicker-worthy moment, involving Kevin Nealon and a stolen grape. But watching the rest of it will make you whine.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
Is there a staler target for satire than the porn industry? Is there any humor left to be gleaned from describing X-rated acts in G-rated language? Bucky Larson suggests there isn't, yet it plunges ahead all the same.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
This may be the worst movie Pauly Shore has ever been in. Think about that. If you dare, go on Netflix and test the hypothesis.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
About as funny as the typical scribbling on a public bathroom stall.
Entertainment Weekly
Keith Staskiewicz
With his pageboy haircut, ''Gee, golly'' Midwestern accent, and two protruding Chiclets for front teeth, Bucky Larson is a one-note joke played over and over and over.
Movieline
Alison Willmore
Wanders around in the general vicinity of a joke idea without ever approaching anything like a punchline.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
An inept, lazy R-rated movie whose sole purpose is as a glossary of euphemisms for genitalia and sexual acts.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
If you took this script to any sane film producer, they would assume you were pulling a prank. When you told them the shockingly untalented Nick Swardson was attached as the lead, they'd call security.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
The entire premise feels about 35 to 40 years out of date, and while the porn business is a supremely easy target for comedy, this movie doesn't have any idea of what might be funny about it, besides perhaps "tee-hee - boobies."
