Serial

A mildly amusing off-beat ensemble comedy which parodies the fads of a very particular time and place, and as such is probably best appreciated by people of a particular age and origin. Even though the humour is universal and timeless to a certain degree, I never felt truly connected to any of the characters or their situations, and the film was a little like lukewarm leftovers. Though it was nice to see a film of this era made with such an abundance of creative freedom, spirit and absurdity.

A really dumb comedy, but a fun one. Worth it just to see Christopher Lee perform a scene with Martin Mull

A number of laugh-out-loud lines, as well as some that laid it on awfully thick (I guess that must be why satire closes on Saturday night). A fair amount of this material no longer appears overly relevant, but (unfortunately) a lot of it still does, particularly that terrible modern tendency to grow relentlessly talky and overthink things (which seems to have become a national pastime).
