Why?
27 June 2008
A video rental store under threat of closure. Two idiots who stumble on a way to exploit other idiots to save the store. Ummm...that's it.

I get this film. I understand what it's trying to do, I really do. But at the end of the day it's just rubbish.

Yeah, so some people are entertained by amateurish remakes of films. Good for them. Sentimental stuff about Fats Waller is good too; there's nothing wrong about preserving things worth saving for future generations to ignore.

What this film amounts to is the list of films that are paraded for you to take note of somewhere in the middle. By all means, watch them, enjoy them, make your own judgements. That's all this film is about...could've been achieved by some obsessive nerd listing his favourite films and likes on his blog.

The world has moved on. VHS won't be mourned like vinyl. Amateur videos are okay on Youtube, but most people actually have lives. What is the point of this film? Please explain.
