Other films by Christopher Guest I've really enjoyed (Spinal Tap, Best in Show), but this one just seemed dull in parts. Like it was lacking humour, or direction. A lot of the time that it was just a bunch of actors getting together again and saying, 'Hey, we did it before and it was funny, so I suppose we just have to keep doing the same thing?'
Characters and plots just fizzled out all over the place, and nothing felt tightly structured or resolved. The mocumentary thing, with people looking at the character, is getting so old now, and I feel like all irony and originality has been bled from that format.
I'll give this a 6/10 and move on with my life.
After thought: The scene with the plumber and the poo was amazing.
