Review

An exhilaratingly original and innovative spoof which will not disappoint. The film's story follows the unusual road to fame taken by two misfits: the deliciously sleazy Cusack and the constantly bewildered Robbins. They join forces and set up an independent video production company. Stymied by their failure to make rock videos, they subside on the fringe, making living (and not so living) wills as well as taping funerals until their big break comes. The film is crammed with crazy comedy and peppered with unforgettable lines. There's some wild musical numbers and both Cusack and Robbins are wonderful farceurs -- and if that's not enough, Junior Walker and Sam Moore appear as "The Swanky Modes."
