This little masterpiece is a sharp stick in the eye of today's theater (stage-screen) literati.
It is the purist (of the pure) example of humor springing forth from the characters: not from the ribald language; not from contrived camera angles; not from some anorexic, over-paid floozy; not from some get-Bush, get-Ashcroft (can you say Saturday Night Live) excuse for humor.
Perhaps its creators do not realize what a priceless gem of a film this is... but it is. The timing, the deadpan lines and the totally in-the-now acting generate timeless humor that can be watched again and again.
Buy it.
dead on.
I loved this movie - I do think I'll buy it. I laughed out loud during it more than any movie I have seen in a long time.
I liked "Team America" too, but it's nice to see you can get belly laughs without obscenity.
So they play games, making you think that Uncle Rico is having sex with his customers. But he never does. The film toys with the prejudice towards the ribald that we have developed.
