Amazon.com: Cult film and TV star Bruce Campbell (Burn Notice) lampoons his own B-movie legacy with My Name is Bruce, an agreeably goofy horror-comedy which pits him--well, a version of him, anyway--against a malevolent Asian spirit in order to save a die-hard fan. Campbell also directed Bruce, and brings a loose, kitchen-sink vibe to the proceedings, which has teenager and die-hard Bruce Campbell fan Jeff (Taylor Sharp) kidnap his idol in order to save his small town from an ancient Chinese demon. Unfortunately, the movie Bruce Campbell is a broken-down, booze-swilling reprobate who lacks even an ounce of the insouciant charm of his screen persona in Evil Dead 2 or the Hercules series, and proves woefully inadequate in dispelling the monster. But as films ranging from Cat Ballou and My Favorite Year to Galaxy Quest and Three Amigos! have proven, the unwavering belief of a fan can bring out the hero in even the worst heel, and Bruce rises to the occasion in the picture's final third. Obviously, Bruce is slated towards fans of Campbell's eccentric screen c.v., and aficionados will undoubtedly appreciate the endless slew of nods to his previous films, as well as cameos by many of his co-stars, including Ted Raimi in multiple roles (one of which is a Chinese gentleman that gives Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's a run for his money in the stereotype department). Campbell himself remains the movie's chief selling point; his knack for physical humor (read: self-abuse) and pulpy line readings have lost none of their charm, which does much to override some of the flick's flotilla of stale gags. Campbell's sense of humor is also given free reign on the commentary track, which he shares with producer Mike Richardson; the DVD, which comes with a 24-page comic book adaptation from Dark Horse, also includes an amusing making-of featurette, as well as a spoofy tell-all mockumentary on the "real" Bruce Campbell, and a trailer for the atrocious film-within-a-film, Cavealien 2. -- Paul Gaita

Yeah the movie is corny, kinda lame, but what do you expect from Bruce Campbell. He makes fun of himself throughout the whole movie, even having the locals misspell his name on a poster. Yeah he makes fun of the chinese or what a reviewer called racist. But most of us orientals just smile looking up from our bean curd and keep on trucking. I would think the French would be bad mothing this movie as well as the white gys in the backwoods for the way they were shown in this movie. It is part of ... Read More

My Name Is Bruce would be mildly entertaining if it weren't also blatantly racist. Ted Raimi participates in some of the most offensive yellowface I've seen in years as the character Wing. Mickey Rooney's portrayal of Mr. Yunioshi in Breakfast At Tiffany's is almost tame by comparison. It's a shame, because I would otherwise have liked to support this movie.

Let me preface this by saying that Ted Raimi did NOT write this review, LOL. (People who saw the movie will get that joke.)
Anyway, this movie is a great tongue-in-cheek spoof of Bruce Campbell THE MOVIE STAR vs. Bruce Campbell THE ORDINARY JOE. I've watched it so many times, I just can't get enough. I've loved Bruce since Evil Dead, and I've seen him at Fango WOH's before in L.A., and I have to say he's just as over-the-top in person as on the screen. This movie is just too funny ... ...

I love America earnestly, and admit this without embarrassment or reluctance. I even proudly served in our nation's armed forces out of a sense of patriotic calling. Though I realize that our country is not perfect, just as no nation or society inhabited by fallible humans can achieve perfection in the practice of its principles or execution of its laws. Nonetheless, I truly believe this is one of the few societies in this world's history that where noble aspirations for governance have been successfully ... Read More

Bruce Campbell is back and as usual in great form. First of all if your not a bruce campbell fan or dont enjoy his movies then you probably wont like this one as it is trademark campbell....cheesiness and all. For the rest of us(his fans)we are instore for a treat. Bruce is back with a new movie and his all to familiar one-liners. the story itself is a bit cheesy but what did you expect? I thought it was a fun movie,loved the one-liners,as usual bruce's charm is what carries the movie.i hear they are making ... Read More
