A Mighty Wind (2003)
Hi, folks. I understand that there are some people out there who see my reviews as a sort of entertainment guide, a barometer for them so that they can figure out whether a particular movie might be to their taste. I'm flattered by this. And, if nothing else, I'm here to help. So I offer to you a Consumer's Guide to A Mighty Wind, in order that you (yes you, dear reader) might tell if you would appreciate this film.
You might like A Mighty Wind if: You enjoy folk music; you will watch Eugene Levy in anything; you're interested in improvisational comedy; you REALLY enjoy folk music; you will watch Parker Posey in anything; you think that scripting a film isn't always necessary; you believe that catheters and Jewish surnames are automatically humorous; you think endings are overrated; you're the one person in America who'll watch Jennifer Coolidge in anything; you amuse very easily; your name is Owen Gleiberman.
You might dislike A Mighty Wind if: You think a comedy ought to be, you know, funny.
Grade: C
