I caught 'Danny Roane' one rainy morning on comedy central and was late to work because it was so funny. When I logged on to Amazon to find this movie I was suprised to find a one star rating. I had to chime in. This mockumentary in the style of Christopher Guest, has an amazing cast and Andy Dick makes a hilarious comment on hollywood, filmaking and himself. I loved it and highly recommend this film for anyone who has a sense of humor.

Much better than I expected it would be. If you buy it cheap, its worth the money.

I'm actually a fan of Andy Dick and his unpredictable, teetering on the edge on maniacal style of comedy so I actually was hoping that this dvd, his first time film theatrical effort would actually turn out to be decent. Sadly that was not to be found with a mostly medicore and unfunny 84 minutes that felt stitched together at the last minute with a cheap (digital video) and unfinished visual style. The flick does get 1 extra star for Jack Black's cameo.

This whole movie was one big joke. It was hilarious. Especially the part where Anthony Rapp does the "Another Great Day for Drugs" scene. There were little references here and there that someone might not catch if they haven't seen other movies these actors have been in. You gotta love Jack Black and Anthony Rapp. It was awesome.

Andy Dick is out of his mind, but you can't beat this for stomach hurting laughs....you have to watch this 2 or 3 times to get all of the humour.

Andy Dick is amazingly creative in this "auto-biography"??? poking fun at aspects of Hollywood and perhaps his own life in this mockumentary featuring cameos from Hollywoods finest actors and comedians. He is self effacing to the point of re-enacting painful rehab memories. This all star cast delivers the unexpeced around every corner. I highly recommend this for any lover of Spinal Tap, or any Christopher Guest film.

Oh, Andy. I caught a little bit of this on Comedy Central and thought the whole thing must be hilaious, so i bought it. I have been a fan of Andy Dick ever since "The Ben Stiller Show" and I know not all of his stuff is gold, but even with all of the quirky cameos, nothing could save this mockumentary. I laughed twice. In 83 minutes.

This guy joins the list that includes such amazing talents as Carrot Top (Blueberry HEad), Tom Green etc in creating "humour" that is just idiotic and cheap. I cannot believe he is actually got a career he is awful. Talentless Hack. Someone needs to buy him a comedy manual or better yet remove his vocal chords so no one has to hear his awful awful awful "jokes"

I had low expectations going into this, but Andy surpassed them. I watched this amazingly s***ty movie on Comedy Central (it went direct to cable for obvious reasons). This is one of the worst pieces of s*** I have ever seen. It's badly acted, directed, and filmed (it was shot on cheap looking DV). Dick got all his comic friends together and said "I'm making a film". Jack Black and Ben Stiller (among others) appear here, and they look tired, annoyed, and completely uninspired. There was a few scattered laughs, but this was due to the fact that the film ended up being like an Ed Wood film because it was truly awful. The film reminded me of a really bad "art" film from the 1960's where the filmmakers use a bunch of technical tricks to try and cover up the fact that they don't know what they're doing. The film is a true trainwreck. Andy Dick is the most overrated performer, and I've never understood why people think he's so funny. He's just a drug saddled celebrity, the male equivalent of Courtney Love.
