Review of Wet Hot American Summer (2001) by Mark F — 24 Mar 2008
This movie has generated something of a following- obviously. But even after a lot of my friends recommended this to me, I have to say I found it very uneven. When this was made, these actors/comedians were not all that well known ( aside from the "headliners" like Janine Garafalo and David Hyde Pierce) and for being something of a wealth of budding talent, this movie is good.
There are so many characters and plotlines that there's little room for any one story or character to really shine. In a way it feels like a really long pilot for something on Comedy Central. But it has heart and it is pretty funny- even if it is rough around the edges.
