Film Threat, Hollywood's Indie Voice
‘Whatever happened to Pauly Shore'I'm sure that's asked by someone at least once a day. For a while there he was - the hottest young and crazy thing. I still recall sitting in the audience of Son in Law (1993) only to go near deaf from the screams of ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at Film Threat, Hollywood's Indie Voice
MovieWeb (Fred Topel)
Pauly Shore is Dead is Shore's self-referential mockumentary about what happened to him after he fell from fame. Beginning with the overexposure of the wiezel and the failure of his sitcom, the film chronicles his downward spiral, plan to fake his own ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at MovieWeb (Fred Topel)

While catching a Pauly Shore movie might rank somewhere slightly below self-tracheotomy on the To-Do lists of most people, I'm about to tell you something quietly shocking -- this is actually one of the funnier movies I've seen in a while. ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at eFilmCritic.com (Oz)
Movie House Commentary
eFilmCritic
When we were all having fun making easy jokes on the back of Shore’s fall from grace in the 90’s, he obviously eventually came to a point where he had to make a decision on his future. Based on the traditional Hollywood career crossroads options, he ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at eFilmCritic

filmcritic.com (Christopher Null)
Well, I guess when your career has reached the nadir that Pauly Shore's has, directing a mockumentary about your own death is the sensible thing to do. In the extremely descriptive Pauly Shore Is Dead, Shore finds himself in present-day career hell ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at filmcritic.com (Christopher Null)
Sacramento Bee (Joe Baltake)
It works as a throwaway joke -- occasionally funny and often shamelessly tasteless. And it also helps if you like Shore. ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at Sacramento Bee (Joe Baltake)
Austin Chronicle (Marjorie Baumgarten)
Born and bred L.A. narcissist Pauly Shore turns auteur for this comedy film outing which, in addition to starring in, he also directs and receives screenwriting credit (along with pal Kirk Fox). It’s pure Pauly all the way, even though the movie seeks ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at Austin Chronicle (Marjorie Baumgarten)

Pauly Shore’s career spirals down into the toilet in the wake of a disastrous Fox sitcom.
Desperate, he fakes his own death, thus boosting his popularity. His plan seems to be working,
until the terrible backfire when he is caught and sent to jail. ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at UpcomingDiscs.com (David Annandale)

The Cinema Source (Paul Maniaci)
Pauly Shore 's career is a bit of an enigma. He was a successful entertainment personality and no one really knows why. He wasn't strikingly handsome or hilarious, but he could make us laugh with his offbeat pronunciation or when invoking his character ...read the complete Pauly Shore Is Dead movie review at The Cinema Source (Paul Maniaci)
