And what the bloody hell was that suicide bomber arab kid contestant near the end? what the ??? was t... read more

Even though he has past his prime, I still have a weak spot for Hugh Grant and I try to check his movies whenever I get the chance. I thought this one, for example, was a nice surprise. It is basically a satire of 'Idols' and such talent shows and it hits the right notes many times during the whole movie. There is also a pretty good cast (Hugh Grant, Dennis Quaid, Mandy Moore, Willem Dafoe, Chris ... read more

It is basically a satire of 'Idols' and such talent shows and it hits the right notes many times during the whole movie. There is also a pretty good cast (Hugh Grant, Dennis Quaid, Mandy Moore, Willem Dafoe, Chris Klein, Jennifer Coolidge, Marcia Gay Harden) and they all delivered some decent performances, especially Hugh Grant who was, as usual, rather hilarious. Unfortunately, I must admit the whole thing was rather unfocused and, honestly, rather messy but still, I think it deserves more credits than it usually gets.
