Bill Williams, a retired actor, is unexpectedly hired to make a sequel of the movie that made him famous some time ago, it was a supporting role in the block-buster True Lies. His new co-star is Aaron Roman, a kid having no acting experience, and that means Bill will have a lot of bizarre misadventures instead of having the magnificent back-on-stage. Aaron's father, Davis Roman (Joe Mantegna), is a very wealthy man: as a present for his son's 18th birthday, he's going to bankroll a professionally shot action movie which will star Aaron. Would Williams refuse to write and to play in Aaron's birthday movie? Williams isn't so sure in that even with a million-dollar payday, until he meets Aaron. Charmed by his aspiration, Williams signs on for the world's most expensive home movie. Williams and producer Susan Mandeville (Linda Hamilton) hire Wayne's World director Penelope Spheeris to helm the project, and persuade bikini model Arielle Kebbel to appear as Aaron's love interest, but what started out as strictly a job-for-hire becomes something more as Williams and his fellow cast and crew members get to know their challenged young star. |

New York, 1959. Max Bialystock was once the king of Broadway, but now all his shows close on opening night. Things turn around when he's visited by the neurotic accountant Leo Bloom, who proposes a scheme tailor-made for producers who can only make flops: raise far more money than you need, then make sure the show is despised. No one will be interested in it, so you can pocket the surplus. To this end, they produce a musical called Springtime for Hitler written by escaped Nazi Franz Liebken. Then they get the insanely flamboyant Roger De Bris to direct. Finally, they hire as a lead actress the loopy Swedish bombshell Ulla (whose last name has over 15 syllables). As opening night draws near, what can go wrong? Well, there's no accounting for taste... |
