Ron W This is a really well done mockumentary that keeps everything believable while also building up the humor until a fun climax. How they managed to make the main character both the hero and the villain was impressive. If you like the Christopher Guest mockumentaries like Waiting for Guffman, you'll like this too. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/03/25 Full Review Kate K The Premiere is funny, sharp, and refreshingly unexpected. What starts as a seemingly straightforward story quickly flips into something much more entertaining, keeping you on your toes the whole way through. The humor is clever without trying too hard, and the film manages to surprise while still being incredibly fun to watch. It’s the kind of movie that makes you laugh, catches you off guard, and leaves you talking about it after the credits roll. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Dina G I thought the movie was really funny! I laughed more than I thought I would and would recommend this movie for others to watch. Try it! It will be worth it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Katherine C You’ll watch it again and again!!! —absolutely hilarious and so clever! I was laughing the entire time. Sam is brilliant!! Filled with humor and heart! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Donna M My face hurt from laughing so hard! Must watch! Pure comedy gold! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Lisa G Hilariously twisty and fabulously wild. Sam does an excellent job of plotting and twisting then turning when you least expect it with cringe and chaos at the center of it....but it all makes sense and comes together so beautifully. The best comedy in recent history and totally a must see!! The cast of characters are all woven in so well and Sam's delusions make you love hating him.
