Overall Call:
This is one of the funniest documentaries I've ever seen. The cast of real characters is enough to just bury you with unintentional laughter. It is a middle American guy in constant pursuit of completing his film. Watching Mark try and pull real performances out of the townspeople is simply unbelievable. It's one of those movies that compel you to utter... Umm remember the scene when... about a million times till you've discussed the entire movie. So odd are they that David Letterman has had Mark and Mike on the show for commentary. I don't know what else to say but rent this one and be amazed that these people actually exist. How 'bout Uncle Bill?!
