Outrageous and Hysterical. Completely blurs the lines of reality...great music, great cameos, great comedy!, 17 March 2006
10/10
Author: yeshegonpo from California, USA

I saw this DVD at a friends house and was completely captured. I couldn't tell if I was watching a bizarre documentary, the ultimate promotional piece for a band I'd ever seen, or an over-the-top sophisticated comedic creation.

From what I've now heard it's a little bit of all three. There really is a group called Chutzpah and this film really does document the making of their record and video...and a CD of theirs is available! With mini music videos and surprising cameos by Gary Oldman, Debi Mazar, Sharon Osbourne and Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard (!) there is a lot to enjoy.

What parts are not true are still unclear to me...whatever the case may be this is a must see for fans of hip hop, Spinal Tap, Jewish humor, and George Segal...yes...George Segal!
