Funny yet the setups vs staged stuff was distracting.

Rating: 7/10 (21 February 2007)

First of all I love mocumentaries (e.g. Spinal Tap, etc). This one is great in that it mixes in non-actors as real people reacting to the guys acting like he's from Kazakhstan. He does outrageous stuff and gets away with it because people think he a "foreigner that doesn't know the customs". I have to admit that I was rolling laughing at some of the stuff. Other stuff though fell flat. One thing that was distracting though was who were the suckers into thinking this guys is real and who are the actors acting a part. Spinal Tap didn't have this problem because you knew they were all actors. Spinal Tap didn't have the different kind of laughs you get when you watch real people confronted by this guys antics. I gave it a 7.0 and saw it at the $1 theater. I got my money's worth.
