        Kristen Wiig shines in this irreverent comedy about a bipolar woman who wins the lottery and buys 100 episodes of her own local broadcast show, unintentionally inventing the "narrative informercial". There are plenty of laugh out moments, but unfortunately all the characters except Kristen's Alice are one dimensional and pointless, which is sad considering there are plenty of talented actors on hand. There isn't really a plot or anything at stake. This is a character sketch for showcasing Wiig's talent. If it had more of a narrative thrust, this could be a classic on par with Being There, but unfortunately, it is a few fun scenes and no bones, just slightly better than Bridesmaids co-star's "Tammy". Unlike "Tammy", I wouldn't recommend skipping this. It's absurd and the kind of quirky that isn't annoying. This is a great premise, and it was sadly wasted, but there are enough funny moments to sit through the failed attempts at launching a plot.

        A woman with Borderline Personality Disorder wins the lottery and buys off a TV station in order to produce a daily talk show. Kristen Wiig gives an excellent performance in both the dramatic and comedic/dramatic sections of this film. Her deadpan delivery was never more appropriate, and she mines soul-depths to create an interesting and compelling character. However, the film simply doesn't have enough plot events. It contents itself with scenes wholly motivated by Alice's (Wiig) disorder, occasionally interrupted by scenes of the TV execs arguing about whether it is ethical to display Alice's disorder despite her financial largess. It's a collection of the same scenes on repeat, so the plot doesn't advance, and the deus ex machina at the end is as unmotivated as the rest of the film. Why should the receiving character so spontaneously switch her stance? As a result, the film is a stagnant character study and is too thin on plot. Overall, Wiig is excellent, but the story isn't.

        Understandably there are a bevy of flaws concerning this film, and I will get to them in the following review, but I should say right off the bat that I thoroughly enjoyed this little traipse into mental illness' machinations. Kristen Wiig has been killing it in indie roles lately, especially in "The Skeleton Twins" and "Girl Most Likely." Even when those films fell flat, Wiig's performance shined through like a piercing beacon of light. Okay, now that we have exalted at the SNL alumni throne, we can move onto the film as a whole.

        Kristen Wiig is talented and charismatic enough to sell us this uneven story and not alienate us from her selfish, awkward character, although the film doesn't really find the best balance between comedy and drama.
