The reason, I think, this film has such a low rating is because people who enjoyed the other spoof 'Movie' series by the Wayans went to see it mistakenly thinking it was by the same people. I've always found those films deeply unfunny, like it has been said, just a series of pop culture references with nothing else. Just comedy for people that don't usually watch comedy.
This film's title interestingly has ripped off the popularity of those films (I would have thought the 'movie' suffix was copyright actually, although it's maybe too vague) when it is usually inferior films piggybacking off better ones.
That said, this is hardly a classic but if you enjoy Naked Gun/Airplane style silliness and slapstick with a few decent pop culture references I would recommend this for a few laughs. 7/10.
Compared to most of the recent spoofs including Scary Movie which I would personally award 2/10. Not my sense of humour at all.
