Joe Leydon Variety Michael Mongillo's modestly clever mockumentary Being Michael Madsen could generate smiles of approval (and shocks of recognition) among showbiz insiders and media-savvy civilians as homevid and pay-cable fare. Dec 11, 2007 Full Review Phil Hall Film Threat Sharp, hilarious satire. Rated: 5/5 Jan 9, 2009 Full Review Sara Maria Vizcarrondo Boxoffice Magazine Give it time. There's a lot here to like.

Iamwhoi M Fun little mockumentary. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/04/25 Full Review Audience Member Give Michael Mongillo's modestly clever mockumentary Being Michael Madsen some time to sink in. There's actually alot to like here. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Actor Michael Madsen turns the tables on notorious paparazzo, Billy Dant, by hiring a trio of documentary filmmakers to chronicle Dant's life, loves, and troubles. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I thought this was hysterical -- but maybe because I had seen so many dark films in the previous two days. Still, quite entertaining. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A well written finely acted "mockumentary" about the paparazzi world. Hilarious and unmissable! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Unsurprising. Average. Not very well executed. Few funny bits. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
