    Fun dry humor

    I enjoyed this movie a lot and love all the actors!

    It's only funny if you enjoy dry dumb humor. It is a bit stretched out/ slow but I didn't mind because it's a mockumentary and they usually have that weird pace.

    I've seen a lot of bad reviews because they go in expecting something more.

    So to lay it out for people who are questioning if they want to watch it: You have to keep an open mind!

    If you don't like dumb humor don't watch. If you don't like a movie that feels like a bunch of weird skits forced together don't watch. If you enjoy watching wacky mockumentaries with awesome comedians then give it a try!
