Review of Heckler (2007) by Andrew W — 23 Jun 2009

Kinda weird to critique a movie that is so anti-critiquing (though he does allow for it in a 20 second addendum). all in all, this is a very cathartic movie for jamie kennedy. he confronts his critics, and a few hecklers, and asks them why they do this sort of thing. interesting idea. it should have been called 'critic', cause that's what 70% of the movie is about, but whatever.

Here's the problem. kennedy gets all up in these peoples' faces about their critiques of his movies. half the time, he's pissed cause they are critiquing him as a person, and not him as a character, or even the movie. this, I agree with. however, he gets pissed at critic when all they do is critique the movie (roeper for example). make up your mind. then, kennedy goes and bashes half the people that critique him, personally. it's a pretty self-loathing movie, an interesting concept, but could have been executed better.
