Friends told me I had to watch this crazy DVD and so we did and I was definitely amused. But there are times when you do realize that in the long run, it was a very cruel joke to play on this guy - even someone as clueless and egotistical as Perry. He kind of reminded me of the DeNiro character in King Of Comedy - a guy who was going to pursue celebrity and fame no matter what (as in - no matter that I don't even have a shred of talent). The film touches on that and the thirst for stardom and Perry shows to be quite a jerk and yet the other two, Don and Mole are even bigger jerks because let's be honest - it's not that hard to pull something over on such a dim guy like Perry. That's like cheering because you outran an old lady or took something from the blind guy's newsstand. I mean - so what??? That's not to say there aren't BIG laughs in this - there are. I was entertained as I watched it but also felt like part of a mob afterwards.
