Oh hell yes!

Frankly as an Indy film lover and guy who works with Indy filmmakers myself. I've seen most of or know enough about most of the films being ripped on here I have to say this is so dead on. Don't get me wrong I love Pulp Fiction, Swingers, Run Lola Run and all the rest (except The Good Girl which this film so burns so rightly) but yes this film rips each one of them a new one. And the rip on "The Good Girl" OMG I couldn't have done or said it better.

I know some people will see this film and lose their minds over the fact someone has the nerve to parody their sacred cows but yes someone did it and did it well. Even going after Momento and Amelie. By the way, the actress that parodied Amelie, she was great! The other actors were wonderful too. I can't say enough about how funny and in your face this movie was.
