this movie easily fall into the category of laughable and if not beyond that to actually insult . i mean in what alternate universe do the filmmaker and studio think that this film would play . from begin to end we bombard with quaids overact and ridiculous facial expression and lay on the im a loose cannon act a little thick . another pick point i have with the movie be the lack of a realistic story of event that would make you grow to connect to a character . i mean in one scene where lewis be play in a bar before make it big there be this over the top and just completely absurd bar fight that every citizen in town be apparently a part of . then lewis begin to play his rendition of a whole lot of shake and everyone immediately forget their difference and begin dance wildly a if it the most normal thing in the world . these kind of scene and of which there be numerous and couple with the lack of depth in any of the character lead me to actual laughter . so all in all this film be not worth view for anyone not interested in mock a filmmaker and his actor decision for an hour and a half .
