A docu/ Mocumentery that has sound bytes from many stars. Listing these stars in the credits is misleading. Really angry about what I got compared to how it was presented. NOT A GOOD PURCHASE.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO BUY THIS DVD FOR NICOLAS CAGE, DON'T BUY IT. I DIDN'T EVEN SEE HIM. MAYBE A SHORT GLIMPSE OF HIM SOMEWHERE ON THE DVD. SHORT INTERVIEWS WITH BIG STARS ON THE RED CARPET. A TALE OF A WANT TO BE ACTOR.

Every time I see this film I find a new reason to laugh. With a great concept and a genuinely funny script, Tony Markes and Adam Rifkin here prove that the demented "Dark Backward" was not a creative anomaly. Watching Rifkin and Markes get a bunch of bona-fide stars to be in their zero-budget movie for free is inspiring - a textbook application of the Bowfinger principle - but the real fun here is seeing Markes play all the actors he DIDN'T hire when he was a casting director. These guys are not Farrellys, to be sure, but they're creative and sharp, and until their new collaboration - "Getting Hal" - comes out, this film and "The Dark Backward" will give you strange dreams, indeed.

This film is a biting take on fame and the city that's on an endless search to foist it on people. Anyone who's ever been on an audition will laugh/cringe as the true humilations of such events are placed squarely in the crosshairs. What this film lacks in production values, it more than makes up for in humor and insight into the world of entertainment. Well worth your time and money.

this was very weak----
I'd say down right terrible-----
sandra bullock was really not even in this movie-------------
I'd give it a minus 100 stars

This is a wierd one Ordered by mistake and now selling in ebay. Not by far one of my best choices but might apeal to you if you like to be fooled into thinking that this is for real. i really would not waste my time nor my money like we did by buying this dvd and then spending the time to watch it and then still be waiting to see what the heck it was about
