About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like Hollywood-insider comedies and ensemble satire in the vein of Best in Show or A Mighty Wind; Not for you if you want a fast plot or broad, nonstop laughs.
Pros: sharp Hollywood send-up; strong ensemble performances; a few big laughs | Cons: uneven humor; thin story momentum; satire feels familiar
