Do NOT "See This Movie".
Added 8/28/2009
This is one of the worst movies I've seen. It's only not worse than "Date Movie" because it's not epically unfunny (it doesn't take a crack at being humorous...I don't think?). It's uninteresting and doesn't make sense. The plot, what is it? The resolution? Seth Meyers is still hot as hell but I wouldn't be surprised if this sucky movie took home a couple Razzies.

I ordered this not knowing what to expect, and it was better than I thought it was going to be. It's very different---but very funny.

More like 2 1/2 out of 2 stars...why wont you let me rate it that Amazon?! Anyway onto the movie called "See This Movie" where Jake Barrymore, played by Seth Meyers (SNL, upcoming American Dreamz) graduated from his film class and decides to make a movie in which there is no movie yet and in which he goes to the Montreal Film Festival where his ex-girly girl Annie, played by Jessalyn Gilsig (Nip/Tuck, Boston Public) happens to work. He and his friend Larry, played by John Cho (Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle, American Pie movies) swindle their way into the festival and their film...the film doesnt excist yet. Martin, played by the wonderful Jim Piddock (Best in Show, A Mighty Wind) is Jake's film school teacher and who also is going to edit the film...if one becomes one. Jake casts the movie with actors (actors I wouldnt wanna put in my film if I made one). Jake writes the script as the story progresses which is basically moments that have happened in the movie he just happens to shape and form them differently in the movie. Meyers is funny some of the time but his character becomes annoying as the movie progresses. Cho comes off the better of the two and Piddock is hilarious playing the Bisexual Martin. Also starring Patton Oswalt (Blade: Trinity, Failure To Launch), Jessica Pare (Lost & Delirious, Wicker Park) and Paul and Chris Weitz (Chuck & Buck, forgot which one played the man who Jake thought was Wim Wenders...funny scene by the way). 2 1/2 like I said...not a bad movie but has its flaws here and there. Surely worth a look for movie buffs

"See This Movie" is a very funny film. If you like the work of
Christopher Guest (ie: "Best In Show", "Waiting For Guffman", etc.) you
will love this movie. A great premise (two bumbling, if well
intentioned guys, try and make a film on the fly in time for the
prestigious Toronto International Film Festival), hysterical acting
(particularly from John Cho of "Harold And Kumar Go To White Castle"),
good direction and a cool look make this an indie flick well worth
one's attention. If you're looking for a funny and touching little
movie I would recommend that you (you saw this coming) "See This
Movie."

Seth Meyers (SNL) and John Cho (American Pie, Harold & Kumar) make a great comic duo as wannabe filmmakers who bluff their way into a big festival without actually having made a movie. Meyers and Cho keep the laughs coming, as do terrific performances from the other actors including Jim Piddock, Jessalyn Gilsig, Jessica Paré, and cameos from writer/directors Chris & Paul Weitz (American Pie), Miguel Arteta, and comedian Patton Oswalt. If you like to laugh... See This Movie.
