Okay, this film has virtually no character development,a collection of sketches posing as a narrative, and much less importantly, modest production values, but it does have two killer scenes. When Barry goes to the mattress audition and insists on doing an accent, and then won't leave, is priceless. Adam Reid offers the best bit of acting in the whole movie as the enraged casting director, bettering Scott Thompson as the dick-head director tormented by Barry's incompetence on set in the other great scene in the movie. The Mike Beaver segments are pretty much forgettable and neither lead characters have much depth due mostly to the writing, and in the case of Beaver, endless scenery chewing. Considering the budget and thin writing, the directing/editing was pretty good and often transcended the weakness of the insular material. For the Jones bits 3/5, for the Beaver bits 1/5 (and the 1 is for Jenn Baxter). There was also some great music.
