As other reviewers have noted this is a totally forgetful, seriously unfunny film. I would say this is a film for the star to exhibit his narcissism especially when doled up as other UNFUNNY CHARACTERS.
The plot was missing and whatever it attempted to have didn't make any sense as it eventually went nowhere especially at the ending.
I didn't even comment about it at the end with anyone it was so ephemeral.
I am now recalling the film for this review it was so bad.
Where were Siskel & Ebert to warn me not to watch this piece of drivel? This movie destroys the reputation of the first one and all the fine film making it exhibited but don't be mislead as it was excellent. This movie OTOH needed the "wipers" for cleaning it up.

This film is loud and will keep you riveted but be prepared to be verbally assaulted. The actors are excellent and convey their roles perfectly. They never waver. You never lose your train of thought. That said, the subject of the film is difficult to watch and you feel trepidation as it moves along. It does have moments of respite and the soundtrack helps alleviate the tension, but it keeps reminding you that the business of this film is unsettling.
I gave it a lower score because I found it too abusive to watch in places. Yes, thats the reality the film is conveying, but perhaps it was too real for me.

Harbourfront should not have screened this movie.
This movie is an insult to what a movie should be. It lacks an interesting script that an adult can follow. Perhaps, it is meant for 8 year olds. I watched the animated comic as a kid and remember the cartoon being interesting, something this piece of crap lacks entirely. On the other hand, it is full of logos for real products that gets annoying in an instant. This piece of worthless celluloid is full of logos almost on every frame. I cannot believe I actually sat through the whole thing. A lot of other reviewers give this movie more points because they believe that the endless product placements are being satirized but given the amount of it, it must have been how the movie ended up getting a budget.
One redeeming aspect is the actors but they have shot themselves in he foot by being associated with this piece of worthless drivel. I mean, to go from Titus Andronicus to this for Alan Cumming is beyond the pale. Had this movie had a worthwhile story it would have been great. Instead we got a horrible pastiche.
