I enjoyed it!

Rating: 8/10 (18 August 2006)

I enjoyed it. The humor is a little dry. This is a parody on the down and out who becomes successful without telling his friends, gets found out in the end. If you can't get the parody/spoof of a movie genre you probably won't like it. I found it extremely funny. You may wonder why Jack Black would produce a film. I suspect it is because this is an under spoken form of humor you don't see very often on the big screen. Similar to Steven Wright in that you need to really absorb the themes to enjoy. Not everyone goes to the movies for an experience that requires the viewer to pay attention and think about what is going on in a comedy.
