Wow! Anybody else out there dig this flick? I've only had the DVD for a few days, but this is rapidly becoming my favorite movie about a movie!

I'd never thought I'd say this but Mario Van Peebles acts his ass off and displays some unheard-of talent. The pacing is great and how about that clever casting with Vincent Schiavelli as Jerry Gross!

Without a doubt, One of my favorites of the year.

I enjoyed this also, I rented it the other day. I saw it in the theater also, but I was way too drunk to remember much.

Just rented it and liked it so much I may buy it.

Truly inspirational, entertaining and funny.

I just watched this film and loved it. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys film biographies or just a great flick.

Tim :-)

i watched this for the first time yesterday, and i couldn't help but watch it again last night.
amazing movie, funny, touching, extremely well acted

Count me in as well. I haven't gone through the extras, but the father son commentary should be fairly interesting.

I heard this movie was great.

trailer link?

High Res.

Excellent movie.

...coming from a guy who HATES movies about movies. I think they're the lowest of the low.

Loved Mario Van Peebles in Heartbreak Ridge.
Yeah, I know, cheesy movie but what great cheese!!

Karimah Westbrook (The movie's brickhouse) helps make it great.

That's funny. I also hate movies about movies... and movies about plays. But Baadassss! was a decent flick. And "Waiting For Guffman" (about a play) is possibly the funniest movie I've ever seen. So, there goes my hatin' on movies about plays!

Slightly off topic...

"Topsy Turvy" was kinda about a play but if you haven't seen it do so. IMHO It was excellent. Nothing but solid acting by Jim Broadbent and others.

Just finished watching this and I was amazed at how much I enjoyed it. Absolutely terrific film I noticed Blockbuster had a pvd one for sale when i traded some things in the other day, so i'm going back tomorrow to buy it.

You ain't kiddin.... that was some of the finest unexpected cinema skin in history. Good god that woman has got it goin on!!
