The levels of ridiculousness this satire hit were pretty entertaining at times and it was kind of fun to imagine this going on just on the other side of the river, but the formatting was off enough for me to never seem to be able to fully get into it. It didn't seem like much editing was done past its original movie script form...and I think I would have liked the movie better had it been made.
