Los Enchiladas!

...don't assume that you will love, like or even barely tolerate this movie.

I saw that one user review selected the "contains spoilers": option. There's nothing about the plot that could be revealed that would cause an issue. The spoiler is the movie itself. Don't let it spoil your appreciation for Mitch's vastly better standup work.

TECH ISSUES: I watched it on YouTube on a 65" Sony OLED, but I'm pretty sure the technical shortcomings would be noticeable on an iPhone 3GS. It was clearly digitized from a VCR tape; in fact near the beginning, the picture briefly flashed to a blue screen that said, "Play" and then back. The video was terrible and the volume bounced up and down for most of the movie. If there's subtlety in there somewhere, you're going to need a microscope to find it.

PRODUCTION VALUES: Another user review estimated its production cost at about $500.Surely an understatement made for effect, but don't expect much.

ACTING: A few "not so miserable" performances, especially the chef and his interactions with the menu author. Weird, but about the only high points.

PLOT: Slackers, malcontents and weirdos work at a Mexican restaurant in MN and their manager and chef run away leaving the inmates briefly in charge until a conclusion that more or less says, "okay, it's over!"

HOW TO USE: Late night, I got nothing better to do and can't sleep, curiosity only.

Now this is a gem.Los Enchiladas! not only starred Mitch Hedberg but he also wrote and directed it. Who is Mitch Hedberg you ask?Only one of the funniest men to ever walk the earth.It's surprising he did a movie since one of his most famous bits is about comedians becoming writers and actors. "You are a good chef, can you farm?". His drug fogged reality made for a hit or miss one liner style and he almost never looked at the audience. As sad as it was to see him die,I can't say I was surprised. Anyway,this movie is exactly what you would think a movie written by Mitch would be,FUNNY. If your idea of funny is Friends or Everybody Loves Raymond,you probably won't like it. If you like Cheech & Chong or Tim & Eric or Mr. Show,you will love this. The story is loosely based on his real life and is just about him traveling the country working in restaurants. Dave Attell and Todd Barry are also in this but the funniest person in the movie is Jim Jorgensen,who plays the wacky chef. Most importantly,this movie was never released.All that exists is one not so good VHS copy. Mitch's widow is supposed to be trying to release it but she said that years ago. If you like to laugh,SEE THIS.

This movie went nowhere; Like a puddle on the concrete after a hot summer rain it was shallow and dried up quick. Don't know why this movie currently ranks above a 3. Mitch Hedberg's stand up was funny, but he was still lacking serious popularity - His "life style" issues and subsequent death didn't help. I never laughed once at this movie, not even a chuckle and I nearly fell asleep waiting for any spark of a plot. Centering the theme around a fast food restaurant is lame. Maybe if Mitch would have incorporated his humor/jokes into this movie, added some romance, a love story and most of all any resemblance of a main plot it might have had some redeeming value. As it was, watching a pack of mutts going in circles sniffing their butts would have been funnier. Jana Johnson (Amy) was the only bright spot - should have been a love interest of a romance story, and "Amy" could have had some physical sex appeal. Perhaps it ranks higher than its worth because of Mitch's death just as he was showing signs of blossoming - Mitch Hedberg fans are emotionally confused and objectivity went out the window. Mitch said he submitted his script to several movie makers and it was rejected, I can understand why.

I though maybe this was a case of a decent movie that didnt get the exposure it needed and never got popular. Nope... It's just badly done throughout. The acting (if it can be called that) ranges from "meh" to terrible. Really bad music. Bad dialog. Tried watching this three times and couldn't watch more than 15 minutes of it. Yes it is bad. Skip it you aren't missing anything

Love Mitch but movie was awful. Probably cost $500 to make.Mitch has funny ideas but the photography wasn't good at all. Looks like they just threw this thing together . Too bad he left us too soon. It would have been fun to see him develop even more as an entertainer. I couldn't even watch more than 5 min.
