This movie was really different--part comedy, part documentary, part character study. I loved the quick cuts--it was what kept me watching. The acting was stiff, but it was supposed to be stylized like a 5th grade play (or at least I assume it was).
The cameos actually took away from the film a little bit for me. They were fun, but they took me out of the moment. They were too "clever" for the rest of the film. I was more interested in the strange circumstances that caused these guys to first become acquaintances, then reluctant roommates, and eventually, friends. So the cameos were a little distracting. (I have to admit, though, that the Kevin Bacon cameo alluding to "6 degrees" was really funny).
Overall, I enjoyed the 90 minutes or so of this experience. In other words, I was entertained, and that's all that really matters, right?
