The movie was great, there is no getting around it. I laughed time and again at the way they attacked such a simple premise. This idea feels like vignette. Get the point across, knock it out of the park, wrap it up in about 10 min. (a great example of a movie like this is called me and the big guy, (). but they managed to string a whole feature length film out of the one joke. Frito and the gang just kept finding new ways to make the same joke in a new way, and kept it funny. But as i thought about it, i realized, what if you don't like the joke? what if you don't buy the premise, or think it wholly lacking in comedic value? Then there is nothing in it for you, and the movie became torture. I know the old adage, you can't please all the people all the time, but most movies manage to find a bit of middle ground. So here is where i turn to you, fair readers, and ask a bit of a question. What other movies/shows/broadway hits were like this? I can think of Arrested Development off the top of my head, but i am sure there are more that i just am not thinking about right now.
