Great film - if you're looking for a laugh out loud affair, 21 January 2005
Author:
g_asal_98 from United Kingdom
This film's been released on DVD for a while and at my local
blockbusters, i noticed it quietly sitting in a corner next to Day
after tomorrow and dirty dancing 2. But as i work in blockbusters, i
get free rentals every week so thought i might as well rent it out.
Man, was i in for a shocker!! Talk about totally hilarious.Some of the gags in this film were quality - Robin Williams is at his
comical best. I'm not saying it's Williams' best ever film (cough good
will hunting cough) but certainly he's never been this funny. His gag
about the abnormally shaped cookie was so funny. In fact, i've never
laughed this much since Dumb and Dumber.Edward Norton was actually very believable as the clean cut good guy. I
didn't expect it from him after watching Fight club and American
history X but he carried out his role really well.Catherine Keener also looked really beautiful, she played her
power-hungry turned nice chick character to a tee.Even though the story is about a kids show, there's a lot of dark
comedy in it e.g. the involvement of the Irish gangsters (by the way
also very funny) showing what a good job Danny devito has done
directing this film. Credit to him. All the characters in the film
served a purpose and above all, did it well!! All seemed believable and
Robin Williams was the star.If you watch this film, persevere for the first 20 minutes because
after which the jokes and plot come in hard and thick.Top stuff, rent if you want a comedy with original storyline and a
little bit of good humoured smut thrown in for good measure.
