I must admit, when reading some of the comments that it bestows me in the thought that Americans simply can't stand being made fun of. In my opinion this movie is funny, ironic and wonderfully precise in its portrayal off radio entertainment in the thirties. One of the things that made the movie additionally fun to me was the portrait of several well known stage acts from back then. You could call this movie: "Radio days" on speed. To add to my observations about American humor I might add that the funniest movie Spielberg has ever made (1942 where's) was criticized, almost machine gunned out off box office because it dared to question the American morale during the war.
