They could’ve thought a bit harder about how to shoot it because it’s funny and mostly well-written/conceptualized, but it also feels like a total husk of their work up to this point without the obscurity and anonymity that made their work feel uncanny… the camera is ‘in’ on their sense of humor when it should just be trying to be bland bullshit like Old School or Talladega Nights, and yet it can also be described as bland in its own way, capturing humor rather than complementing it… a part of their appeal is that they push formats and conventions to their limits, but this is really goddamn conventional and only vaguely subversive… kinda a cool meta-narrative going on with these conventions too, one that is actually very similar to Freddy Got Fingered in fact, but not nearly as effective nor as idiosyncratic 

I think what throws me off is that their sketch work (ie Awesome Show, Great Job) exists in a vacuum, which means there are no people directly consuming it as intended, there’s only us watching at 2am on Adult Swim, alone, sleep-deprived, hallucinating, in some dark room… watching people watch their strain of humor in the real world as if it’s normal—and that strain of humor marking all interactions with technology—just doesn’t sit right… it only really works with the Chef Goldblum intro

Tim and Eric use the film as a chance thrust themselves into the cinematic world of the contemporaries that largely funded their works up until this point but fail to actually set themselves apart… bits with Ferrell would work in a Ferrell film, same as the Galifianakis bits… John C. Reilly shows up tho

Too weird to work with the audience of their really famous costars but not weird enough to resonate with their core audience… I understand why Tim and Eric are kinda defensive about it, but it is a failure, it fails to coalesce their style with the medium… I have a lot of similar criticisms about the Nirvanna the Band film, but that internet comedy duo deviates by virtue of their ability to transmute the energy of the show into a mass product rather than dilute the former for the latter (or shove most of the humor into the subtext)…

another 2.5 comparisons to Johnson and McCarroll: 1) each pair has inverted sexual tension… they basically don’t touch in Nirvanna the Band and yet are wrought with sexual tension while Tim and Eric are all over each other without any sexual tension… Tim and Eric use their form of suppressed homosexuality for laughs only, it’s very static in the long-form, especially without any alter egos (Casey Tatum and His Brother, Jan and Wayne… just something to add that’d also be static but be different and static) 2) NtB heighten stakes and tension while Tim and Eric deflate stakes and tension, the former uses it for drama while the latter uses it for gross-out and/or awkward humor, the former’s film is really hammy and charming while the latter’s film isn’t awkward nor consistent enough… go dumber if the comedy’s dumb, accentuate the absurdity of the TV stuff, don’t truncate it… it’s a poor application of cinematic limitations, they’re more comfortable within the limitations of TV
