This is it - the lowest it gets.
There is nothing in this movie that isn't a complete disaster. CERTAINLY it's got one of the most appalling concepts for a movie ever...What I would give to have been a fly- or, rather, a coackroach on the wall of those executive meetings. I'd also love to sample some of those drugs that must have been going around the Geffen/MTV Offices. we've got to be talking about legendary, pharmeceutical-grade cocaine, here fellas - the stuff you just can't get anymore. Cocaine and LCD laced with insect repellant. I just can't imagine any sober-minded adults writing, approving, directing and then acting in this tasteless, disgusting GROSSLY unfunny venture - I can't remember who exactly said it, but some critic or another once said that there's nothing on earth worse than an unfunny comedy. I have to agree.
Nothing in this ungodly mess even makes sense. just one example: Joe's semi-retarded "artist" "friend" invites him to join his band named aptly named "s__t", completely un-heard. At the ensuing gig, Joe both sucks AND blows at drumming. And it's played as a big surprise. What was to be expected? what was the point of this entire sequence with the band?? what did i WATCH here?! am i losing my mind in remembering this? it couldn't possibly be what i think it was. NOTHING can be THAT bad, can it?
who thought this would be a profitable venture? they sunk 13 million and change on this f___ing train wreck. it's fabulous. I feel like i just got back from a frontal and rear lobotomy where'd you *beep*holes put my braaaaains?! whole hole holes nosebleeds uncontrollable nose bleeds
