Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie - 3726

Amazon.com Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim specialize in a style of comedy in which the awkward pauses between laughs are at least as important as the actual jokes. When taken in the 15-minute chunks of their various television projects for Adult Swim, the results can be both strangely hilarious and cerebrally upsetting--the sort of thing David Lynch might produce if given the keys to a public access studio. Watching their first feature, however, can leave the viewer feeling like they've been locked inside with Lynch for a four-day weekend. All of the duo's trademarks are present--the unsettling close-ups, the lovingly crafted re-creations of late-night commercials, a supporting cast that seems to have stumbled directly out of the Star Wars cantina--but 90 minutes of this may just be too much of a weird thing, really. Beginning with a hysterically dead-on parody of modern studio credits, the story finds Tim & Eric on the run from the mob after blowing a billion dollars on a 15-minute movie. Looking to repay the debt to the Godfather (Robert Loggia, still terrifying after all these years), they find themselves in charge of a rundown mall packed to the rafters with oddballs, including a jittery Top Gun enthusiast (Will Ferrell), a sickly Wolf-Boy (John C. Reilly), and a ghost haunting the yogurt stand. Then things get weird. There are some very, very funny moments scattered throughout Billion Dollar Movie's running time--most notably a transcendentally disgusting love scene that could very well end the existence of Valentine's Day--but even the most ardent fans may find themselves wishing for a pause button and some fresh air midway through. Newbies and/or the queasy, meanwhile, are advised to get their affairs in order with an attorney before viewing. --Andrew Wright Product Description An all new feature film from the twisted minds of cult comedy heroes Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim (TIM AND ERIC AWESOME SHOW, GREAT JOB)!
