...but it falls flat. Granted there are at least a half dozen cuts of this movie and I have only seen Troy Miller and the Studio cut of it. That being said it is so bad. It's the same joke for 90 minutes with a few nuggets of comedic gold, they are few and far between and don't save the movie as a whole.
After cutting it and shelving it for the last 2 and a half years apparently New Line is planning to try and cash in on the release of Mr. Show Season 3 DVD in August. The release date for the RRR DVD is 9/16/03 and it will most likely be the Studio Cut I have seen with very few extras. If your a fan of low-brow, dumb dumb, stupid movies you might like. However; fans or Mr. Show and Bob and David's previous work will be left extremely disappointed.
Even Bob and David themselves are completly embarassed about the way this movie turned out. They asked the studio to not release it and begged fans to stop asking about it, so New Line decided to do the opposite. I sincerly hope that first time viewers will not think this is the apex of Bob and David's talents as comedic artists because it simply isn't.
That being said while the script and jokes tend to fall flat the performances are actually pretty decent. Bob's Terry and David's Ronnie definately have excellent and David Koechner's Clay as the narrator and Ronnie's friend steals almost every scene he is in and leads to probably the best running joke of the movie.
I can't emphasize enough that this movie is not a Mr. Show fan friendly movie. Watch it only as a goof and don't expect too much in the way of laughs. I'll give it ** out of ***** mainly due to Koechner, Cross and Odenkirk's performance.
