November 28, 2008The parodies in this movie may seem dated, but I think of it as an oddball companion to another oddball film about television: UHF. I spent more time wondering how Spike's HTV universe worked than I did paying attention to the parodies.

Has its moments...a second-rate screenplay is given a first-rate treatment by underrated director/cinematographer Peter Hyams.
