I saw this in NY at a festival and loved it!
It came across as a studio movie.
As a matter of fact, I think it should have been longer. Maybe they ran out of money and could only make it a half hour. If that is the case, they could have saved some money on the production and extended it to 90 minutes. For instance, instead of shooting it on film, they could have used digital cameras and saved a ton. They used non-named talent so I assumed they saved some money there, not that the actors needed to be named talent; they were all quite good. It just seems they could have done a feature length movie with this topic, but, hey, what do I know about movie making.
As far as getting a chance to see it, I'm not sure where or when this film will pop up in your area, but if you see a notice or advertisement, go see it. It's well worth it.. especially the guy at the end in the "interview". (Hint: it's thrown in after some credits roll).
Bottom line: Funny original movie, but too short.
