Lotsa tidbits

Rating: 6/10 (13 February 2005)

Taking a Saturaday Night Live skit and stretching it into a movie can end up anywhere between a disaster and amazingly good. Many have tried. Many have failed. This one comes somewhere in between. It's entertaining. That's a step above mildly entertaining. The Saturaday Night Live skit was always funny and guest hosts made the skit even better. Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan playing it dumb makes it hard to get through some spots. That doesn't help the fact that the movie won't ever become a classic. But, there's enough tongue in cheek humor, in-house humor, and well written jokes to enjoy. Too bad Chris Kattan's career hasn't taken off.
