| 04.09.11 | DVR | I wouldn't quite put this on my list of shame but it's true that I never saw it when it came out and Louis C.K. has become popular enough since then that I felt I should go back and watch. It feels like it should've been made in 1994 or 6 though rather than 2001. Still, it's fun to see comedians who have gone on to other things in this, and some of the gags were funny to me (Wanda Sykes spending the whole movie dancing like Rosie Perez in the beginning of Do The Right Thing is awesome). I also liked seeing Oz/The Wire vets Reg E. Cathey and J.D. Williams as Dirty Dee and Froggy, the weirdly Dick Tracy-esque villains. Oh and David Cross as the Pootie Tang imposter was great. So yeah, there are enough cameos and gags to make it worth watching but overall I got the sense that it should've been maybe a half hour short or something rather than feature length. It seemed pretty thin. |
