    A feeble attempt to catch the "edginess" of a Jay Leno skit

    If you've chosen to live your life according to a convicted con man's plagiarism of a 19th century science fiction novel so bad that the author abandoned it, you don't get to roll your eyes at people who aren't fully versed in the current iteration of your mythology.

    Two Mormon filmmakers attempt to recreate the look and feel of the "Jaywalking" skits on The Tonight Show, but are somehow less funny. Generally polite, the interviewers sometimes get condescending when the general public mistakenly assumes that the LDS still follows its original doctrine.

    Overall, this film better serves to highlight the fallacy of composition common in Mormon entertainment. Unoriginal, boring, and providing nothing more than another example of the blindered existence of a very deluded cult in the desert.

      Although it may seem like one trip, it actually took Daryn and Jed three separate trips to various areas of the United States in order to obtain all of the footage and interviews they wanted for this documentary.
