Move over Spinal Tap, now for Popstar Never Stop Never Stopping! Okay, okay, you can't really push This Is Spinal Tap to the side, but Popstar is a worthy, far more silly, entry in the music mockumentry genre, trading on the pop music culture of the last 20 years. Andy Samberg is a lot of fun as the conceited, sheltered protagonist, and he surrounded by an amiable cast and lots of cameos from real music celebs, both as themselves (showing a welcome ability to laugh at themselves and their industry) and in amusing bit parts. The movie only infrequently seems to forget it's a documentary (though celebs of this nature would probably not notice the camera after a while), but the production (video and live show) of the foul-mouthed, wrong-headed songs is a highlight. Final test: Did I laugh? Yes, a heck of a lot. The targets of the satire are easy pickings, but by pushing the ridiculous (no way you mistake this for a real documentary and end up marrying Christopher Guest), the movie offers more than those easy targets. 7 years 9 months ago -

Was very suspicious about watching it but ended up loving it.
Lots of laughs and great satire about pop stars and celebrities in general. 7 years 3 months ago -

Probably one of the funniest films I've ever seen with the catchiest music I've ever heard. But droned on a little to long, and had quite a lot of scenes that didn't really make all to much sense. But dude... so worth it for those songs. 7 years 5 months ago
