Weird -“The Al Yankovic Story”

Posted by Bruce - in Blog, Uncategorized - No Comments

“Weird Al Yankovic” story on Roku is true in a way I’m not sure the filmmakers knew they were creating. The film has moments where it is hysterical and other times where it is simply over the top and I’m sorry to say a bit annoying. Very similar to Weird Al Yankovic.  The film is worth seeing because it makes fun of every other “true story” about musicians where it feels like the world or at least the film was created just for them. Yes, the world spun before and after such a star was born but when watching many of these films they make it appear as if it just stopped until….  Weird Al Yankovic appears to be a nice and unique individual which this movie truly captures which in the end makes it more true than many other biopics.

** 1/2 – It really fell off at the end. I guess you can give a 1/2 credit more if you stay for the full credits.
