A Mighty Wind Reviews

Honestly, I keep watching those mockumentaries by Christopher Guest and each time, I really want to love them but, each time, they actually fail to really impress me. Eventually, this flick was not exception. I’m afraid. I mean, it has a very solid reputation so I had some rather high expectations and, indeed, all the actors involved were pretty good and the directing was decent but never during the whole thing was I really laughing. I mean, seriously, when you watch a comedy and you're not laughing then there is definitely something wrong, at least, that’s my opinion. I mean, I can see where they wanted to go with their satire but I don't think it was really hilarious. At best, it made me smile from time to time but that's it. Above all, I thought it was not really interesting. I don’t know, maybe I wasn’t really in right mood when I watched this flick and mabye I should give it a 2nd shot. To conclude, there is in fact absolutely nothing wrong with this feature, it is a decent flick, I just don't think it is really funny, but it is worth a look, especially if you like the genre.

Christopher Guest nails it again with his musical mockumentary, A Mighty Wind. The subtleness of humor makes each character truly believable in their roles. I definately recommend it.
