Trejo finally gets lead role as Rodriguez realizes that his bad movies are his best. Simultaneously lampoons lost genre while actually analyzing current affairs issue. Beautifully incorporates footage from source trailer and provides caricature stereotype characters for Latino cast and wild ones for De Niro, Lohan, and surprising impressive Segal.

World's Greatest Dad

Baumbach-esque tragicomedy analyzes hypocrisy and grief. Williams shines in role reminiscent of his Will Hunting performance. Daryl Sabara matches Williams from what may be the douchiest child role ever. Abrupt ending detracts from otherwise expert script. Poor editing and music cues hurt film, though not as badly as mismarketing did.
