Masterful Movie
Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
What the heck is with the DVD market these days? It seems as if anybody can shoot a movie on video and get it released. This film(er, taped film) is another in the long list of titles flooding the market with zero quality. The kid from American Pie must be having career problems. Otherwise he would be appearing in real films instead of directing and producing his own home made production ala "L.A. D.J." Even worse, this kid must really have an ego, otherwise he would know better than to put his name on this piece of garbage. I mean, really. This thing is really a stinker bomb. It is not funny. It is ridiculous. Gee, how many times can the word "dude" or "bro" be used in 90 minutes? And is farting in somebody's face repeatedly funny? I'll admit, "Dude, where's my car" was funny. But at least that film combined the bathroom humor with at least some intelligence. No wonder this went straight to DVD. It should have stayed off the market. Period.
I have never heard of this film, so I have no idea if it ever was in a real movie theater. I also have never heard of the film's stars, yet I went ahead and rented this movie. I use the term, movie, very loosely, as it was a very unsatisfying viewing experience. Very bad acting. I mean really bad. And the story line was very poor. Something along the lines of two very unattractive teens who want to be DJ's, and what is supposed to be comedy situations revolving around this so called plot. I had previously thought that "Attack of the killer tomatoes" was the worst film I had seen. But now this DJ film has eclipsed the former film as the worst film I ever had to sit through. I am 18 years old, so I usually like teen comedies. I even can manage a smile if a film is only semi-decent. But honestly, I never laughed once watching this. I did, however, frown at this piece of mush and would never dare sit through it again. It is beyond bad. It is stupid. Really lame. Blah!
You are not looking at the film from the right frame of mind. The reason your reactions are so strong are the same reasons why you should rent the movie again. You clearly don't get it. It's a different kind of film in a time when everything is special effects and vampires. This is the type of movie you have to read between the lines on. That's why I'm fairly certain the two negative comments below are part of a smear campaign. They are simply trying to stunt the growth of the film in the DVD market. It ain't gonna happen guys. I got news for you.... there are far too many people in our corner. I have received personal messages and witnessed peoples reactions in theaters and screenings all over the world. And yes, some people don;t get it. Because they are not dialing into the humor. Then there are other people who catch on and think it's the funniest movie they have seen in a long time. Well, please tell everyone you know how bad my movie is, because if you are what I think, then it won't matter because nobody will believe you anyway. Which that's precisely why you write anonymously over the internet. If you have any courage at all, send me an email @[email protected]. Sincerely,Tim Producer
I was invited to watch this film whilst at the Sundance Film Festival and I was massively impressed with the comic talent displayed in this film....Both the writing and acting was first class with a commendable comic performance from all of the cast... most notable was Thomas Ian Nicholas (aka Thombo) of American Pie fame, Tim Scarne (aka Timbo), and Caleb Moody (Larry).I will look forward to the next films in which the afore-mentioned three will be appearing... and for now my only advice is......GO SEE THE FILM!!Johnny English
