Reviews
Wet Hot American Summer (2001)
For fans of 'The State'
I just saw this movie last night, and i haven't laughed like that in a long time. This wasn't so much a movie about summer camp, like 'Meatballs'. This was more of a showcase of connected skits from the talented people that brought you 'The State' and 'The Upright Citizens Brigade' (i believe thats the name). Anyone familiar with these groups will appreciate their brand of humor. Since 'The State' was canceled back in the 90's, it's been a long time since I've seen that type of comedy. I was so pleased to see it again in this movie. It did have it's continuity and editing errors, but that may have been on purpose, and only added to the humor. It's a very goofy movie, yet it doesn't stoop to simple 'gross-out' gags that have plauged the film industry lately. This movie, as with 'The State', takes comedy to a much different level, and, sadly, will probably be under-appreciated. But, for those of you that would 'get it', this movie should not be missed! :O)
