"This satire of the movie industry is both fun to watch and emotionally fulfilling. Martin Short as an agent is hysterical!"

"When Martin Short’s scenes happened I audibly cheered like someone watching a touchdown at a football game Also this dude really bought a Beverly Hills house for $1200 a month I love a film within a film! The film industry is a tough place and I love how this film shows how easily someone’s idea can evolve (for better or for worse). The music throughout this film is also so fun and has similar vibe to Lazy Town lol"
