This is the worst film I have ever seen in my entire life. There are not enough superlatives to describe just how gut-wrenchingly awful it is. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Le fait d'utiliser Harvey Weinstein himself en détective privé est peut-être ce qui rend Burn Hollywood Burn aussi méchant et osé en 2020, mais force est de constater que le film (renié depuis) d'Arthur Hiller est une comédie réussie sur le Hollywood des années 1990. Clairement, Burn Hollywood Burn est un film foncièrement méchant, de ce fait très inégal et parfois un peu comme un album d'Eminem, débile mais aveuglement incisif et donc qui, à force de taper sur tout le monde tout le temps gratuitement fait parfois mouche. Et comme pour Eminem, le côté sale gosse du film peut énerver car il est réalisé par des adultes en bonne et due forme et non pas des enfants de 10 ans en manque d'attention, mais il témoigne aussi d'une envie de mutinerie assez salvatrice quand les gags font mouche. Chuck D et Coolio sont formidables.

Satires about the movie industry have existed since the Golden Age, with classics such as Blake Edwards's S.O.B. to Robert Altman's The Player. Unfortunately, one of the blackest sheeps of Hollywood parody is the mockumentary film Burn Hollywood Burn, one that attempts to realize Alan Smithee, a pseudonym for film directors who claim disownment of their projects. Here, Smithee (Eric Idle) is an English filmmaker who, tired of being the studio punchline, steals the reels for his $200 million motion picture "Trio" and threatens to burn them unless Hollywood agrees to release his original version. "Trio" is an action movie-within-a-movie starring Sylvester Stallone, Whoopi Goldberg, and Jackie Chan as three gun-wielding detectives. Various studio heads get interviewed from James Edmonds (Ryan O'Neal), Jerry Glover (Richard Jeni), and the Brothers Brothers (Chuck D and Coolio), all of which try to talk Alan out of burning his movie. Obviously, Burn Hollywood Burn tries to be for movies what Rob Reiner's This is Spinal Tap does for the music industry, but this one doesn't take any risks or try to attack the Hollywood system. Instead, it aims for the obvious, with painful in-jokes, tired visual gags, painfully offensive African American stereotypes, obligatory celebrity cameos and sleazy interviewee subtitles, all in a desperate attempt for a laugh. In fact, I was surprised that everyone involved in the making didn't change their names to Alan Smithee, especially Harvey Weinstein (surprisingly, not his most shameful act). At least Arthur Hiller, usually a talented director in his own right, had the courage to back out. Whatever the case, Burn Hollywood Burn sucks. (1/2 Blackface Cane out of 5)

Greatest mocumentary ever! Haters are just haters!
First it was too keen, and Hollywood bonzas were afraid of its truth. Then hamsters followed: "Oh, everybody hates it? Cool, I gonna hate it too".
After weinsteingate this film looks like prophecy! Authors knew it in 90s, and they showed the true face of Hollywood.
I watched it in 2019 in one breath.
By the way, everything toched by Eric Idle turns to gold.
