i like the series and i think it hilarious . this movie take the plot of a half hour tv show and stretch it to 90 minute and make it very bland . they could have do a lot well with the whole thing . while it have a few laugh and it do not compare to the series a a whole . the joke be so few and far between that the audience be itch for them when they come . it really sad and this have a lot of potential . even stephen colbert do not seem to want to do a very good job with it . his character wasn not a biting or sarcastic a usual . i guess this could be consider a a prequel to the series because it tell the story maybe a week before the series start and but it nothing that couldn not have be pick up just watch the show . totally unnecessary and not worth the drive all the way across town to the one theater that be show it . the best thing about this stinker be see the trailer for john cameron mitchell new movie .
