Now this is peak cinema. David Bowie, Winona Ryder, and Natalie Portman!?! Really really funny, this is probably my favourite Ben Stiller movie. Owen Wilson on that fucking scooter was hilarious, seriously this film was so stupidly good. And that whole 'Jitterbug' sequence was absolute gold, especially the quick cut to the funeral. "When I was in 7th grade, I was the fat kid in my class." "Ew."

It was a bit slow at times, but the fashion and 80s slang made up for it. Where can I get my hands on a pair of light-purple high-top Converse!?! The concept of pretending your obviously dead boss is alive to allow for a party to continue is so stupidly funny; weirdly enough, the concept of this film is more popular than the actual film itself. SNL did a good digital short inspired by it, which I have to mention because it pretty much sums up what would have happened if the people noticed he was dead: https://youtu.be/G-vUVc-lEgo?si=Mh-QJXKfVYd2xHIi
