Review of A Mighty Wind (2003) by Trentvano — 27 Jun 2018

The good: Talented cast. I'd say about 30% of the characters are well done and entertaining enough. A lot of the folk music is actually enjoyable to listen to. The bad: A lot of time is spent just watching people sitting in chairs talking. Eugene Levy's character is just weird and annoying, a waste of his talent. With such a large cast, it feels like everyone is spread too thin.

Overall: If you're expecting something as good as Best in Show, you'll be disappointed. There are a few chuckles to be had here and there, but nothing that justifies the running time, which is actually pretty short and that is a good thing. There are some good performances though! Just set your expectations, this movie is probably about 70% as good as Best in Show was.
