This review was written on another site nearly two years ago, when Anthony was still part of Smosh.
**THE REVIEW**
I watched the movie last night. As a long-time Smosher I was disappointed that Boxman didn't show up. Or Sergeant Anous, Billy Jean, Stevie, Charlie, That Damn Neighbor, Teleporting Fat Guy, or Ian's REAL mom!!! I thought that there would be tons of references to their videos and that their YouTube channel and videos would be a big part of the movie but no, not even an appearance of Ian's pink- frosted sprinkle donuts!!
I thought that you would have to know a lot about Smosh to understand the movie, but this didn't have to be a Smosh movie. It could've starred two different people, had a different title and it still would've worked. This movie doesn't even acknowledge that they're famous YouTubers. The only tie-in to Smosh it has are the title, the "SHUT UP" at the beginning, and our two main characters.
If Ian and Anthony ever make another movie, I hope it has more to do with Smosh itself. I'd love to see all of their famous characters in a feature length movie. Anous, Charlie, Billy, Jean, Stevie, etc!! Maybe even PokeMon if they can get the rights.
**END OF REVIEW**
However, since Anthony left Smosh in June, I don't think there will ever be another Smosh movie or Food Battle... unless Anthony comes to his senses and goes back to Smosh. Why he would leave such a successful job and channel that he co-founded and co-owned since the beginning of YouTube back in 2005 is beyond me.
