Then there's the fact that several of the key scenes were filmed at actual events, with none but those involved in the production having any idea that the antics were staged. At one point David James interrupts a police-conference of some kind, at another the Citizens For Truth make an impassioned (and nonsensical) speech at a political rally, the spectators cheering and applauding the demands for "truth" from the LAPD.

But all these stunts and all this marketing and what not mean not a damn thing if the film can't stand on its own outside of it. If this shows up on telly or something, they're not gonna interrupt it every five minutes to say, "By the way, the website was really convincing, is what" or "those motherfuckers didn't even know this was a film. Imagine how ridiculous they feel, like when Ali G says a funny question to Buzz Aldrin or some shit."

For that kind of information, you would imagine you'd need a DVD Commentary, which, thankfully, is included on the disc of this very flick.

For the first ten minutes, the commentary is excellent. Director Brian Flemming worked as a DVD Critic at a time (by the way, The Duke would like to point out that DVD Critics are, in fact, the scum of all earth and should be hunted down and torched, but sent free DVD's also), and proceeds to mock directors who waste the yack-track by saying stuff like, "And now we see so-and-so reaching down for a bottle of beer" or "this is such-and-such going to the store, where, you'll see, he gets some soda. Oh look. That's the soda right there. He's just gonna pay for it now." You know the typea crap I refer to.

Unfortunately, Flemming goes on to conduct a commentary which is, I believe, at least 78% more pointless than those mocked hitherto. Crushingly, he decides that the thing to do would be to call in the actors and have them "play their part" and so on, like it was all "real". So we get what amounts to two phone calls playing over the film, in which the "characters" talk a load of horseshit about "yeah, I liked the documentary" or "no, I didn't like that bit" and so on.

Even when Spinal Tap did that, it still annoyed the hell out of The Duke, and they were funny, man.

A film with such an amazing behind-the-scenes tale deserves a commentary what discusses such nonsense. In case these folks don't know, we're pretty sure that this is all, y'know, "fictional".

Imagine if "Dr. Spock" provided the sole commentary on a Wrath Of Khan disc. You'd spit your coffee or whatever beverage you were drinking right across the room. You wanna hear the stories, man, you don't want this fella yacking about "Yeah… um…. I didn't like the movie cause it portrayed me in a bad light."
