Playing this 100% straight was the correct choice. Thought it was great.

Seems like just about every comedian ever did a cameo in this.

I was never a big Weird Al fan, but the humor would be exactly as you'd expect.

Ridiculous and hilarious. I'm only disappointed that they stopped short of White & Nerdy.

Some day this will be perhaps not technically the best movie, but it will arguably be the most famous comedy in an extremely specific genre of movies.

I totally forgot that this movie started out as a skit on funny or die many years ago.

Worth the watch, loved the totally straight , just the facts approach.

1st time watching the Roku channel, ads were annoying but no more than they are watching a football game. 99% political ads though, Tuesday cannot come fast enough!

Great movie. Ending during the credits was my favorite part. Had to relisten to the Gilbert Gottfried podcast when he interviewed Weird Al.

Its a song Michael Jackson made up copying you , "something about getting into fights or trying not to get into one? I dont know."

I really wanted them to double down on the Michael-Jackson-copying-him thing with Fat. The movie was getting long at that point, but I would have trimmed some earlier stuff and had him really beef with Michael. Throwing in Prince was a nice touch. (For those that don't know, Prince was one of the few musicians that denied Weird Al's request to parody him...he had at least 3 songs ready to go if Prince ever gave him the green light.)

He performed Beat On the Brat live at the show I went to last month. Front row center...literally felt like it was just Weird Al, myself, and his 2 guitarists jamming. Nobody else in the audience existed. I don't know how long he's going to keep doing this, but if that's the last time I see him in concert, it couldn't have been better.

Watched this last night, very well done. Didn’t have great expectations and I was surprised. Funny throughout.

This was even more outrageous than I expected. Loved it. It had some spots that could have been written/edited better, but overall enjoyable since I've been a huge Weird Al fan from the start.
