For years I've loved the work of David Cross and Bob Odenkirk, and certainly enjoyed Mr. Show, probably the best television comedy show since Kids in the Hall went off the air.  However, when Bob and David themselves set out to warn people how awful this movie was, you KNOW you had to be worried.  The fellas claim that studio interference from New Line made the production problematic and that the cut of the movie they wanted was largely sabotaged in favor of trying to compete with your usual "Cooter Patrol" style Hollywood comedy in the vein of utter retardedness like, say, American Pie. In the end, they claimed that Run Ronnie Run had been turned into a piece of garbage, and they are RIGHT.  I don't care how deep your love for Bob and David runs...avoid this movie.  Everything clever, subtle, and interesting about their comedy is sabotaged in this flick.  Yes...it has it's moments. There's a few scenes here and there where I did honestly laugh.  But all together, that totaled maybe 5-8 minutes of the rest of the flick.  I love these guys but I have to be honest...something screwed up here.  Whether it was New LIne or Bob and David just not being too good at a movie-length format, this just isn't what Mr. Show fans want to see.
