Tubi Recommendation: Chop and Steele

[Hornius Emeritus 12462]

I just watched the documentary "Chop and Steele" on Tubi.  I know, I know ... commercials suck but one of my friends told me about it and said it was one of the funniest movies he's ever seen and Tubi is the only place to watch it right now.  Holy cow there were moments when I was roaring, I mean on the verge of peeing my pants, with laughter. I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe and thought I might crack a rib.  It's about two guys who've made a life of pranking people and who invent a strongman act that is absolute nonsense, then get morning shows on TV stations across America to invite them on to demonstrate their act.  My Lord the results are spectacular.  They end up getting sued by a media conglomerate. I won't tell you how the lawsuit ends or what happens when they actually make it to America's Got Talent but it's surreal and meta and it slams hard.  Directed by Austin's Ben Steinhauer, who directed Winnebago Man if you've ever seen that. 

Anyway, it's got a 100% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes.  My favorite review is the NPR critic who says "Hysterically funny, wonderful, and really terrible."
