The story of Post vs Kellogg in the race to change breakfast.

So many stars. So very well done. A little bit of stupidity but some hilarious Easter eggs and meta jokes (Hugh Grant's turn as Tony the Tiger cum Q-Anon Shaman was hilarious).

Put your brain on the self for 90 minutes and enjoy this.

Terrible.

Over the top ridiculous. Seems like Jerry called up a bunch of his friends and they put together their goofiest stuff and found a way to stitch it together.

I laughed out loud a lot.

Trying to think of what kind of comedy I would compare it to. It'll either be your cup of tea or it won't.

Wife and I hated it. Some dumb ideas only work for an SNL skit's length of time. They weren't meant to be 1.5 hours.

That said we did laugh out loud a few times. We'd bag on it then laugh out loud. Not enough times to salvage it.

The thing is, you'll know within 5 minutes if it's for you or not. In fact, I would say you just need to know the premise to know if it's for you. The movie goes exactly how you'd expect a movie about the fake history of pop tarts to go.

Everyone in my family enjoyed it a lot. Not every joke hits. Plenty of eye rolls at times, but overall, I thought it was fun.

Also, I want a campaign to get Bill Burr an Oscar for his portrayal of JFK. Probably the most honest representation of a US president ever.

This movie sucked. Sorry not sorry

ASK! NOT!!!

That whole bit might have gotten my biggest laugh of the movie. Chuckling now just thinking about it.

It was either the JFK bit or the funeral that was my favorite part. The ceremonial pouring of cereal and milk over the casket, the folding of the toy surprise, and freaking Toucan Sam singing Ave Maria. All the while the widow is like "WTF is going on?!?"

Freakin gold.

I watched it a week or so ago, when it was released. It was silly and I laughed so much. But a lot of them are comedians I've grown up watching so it was entertaining seeing them all together. But it's definitely not for everyone. I can tell you that. For example if you aren't an Amy Schumer fan you won't like it.

I disagree. I don't enjoy Amy Schumer as a standalone comedian but I liked her in this. I don't enjoy the standup of several of the comedians in it but everyone played their roles pretty well.

That's one of the things that I thought worked well about it. You got little doses of a lot of different comedians.

Yep, all of that and Snap, Crackle, and Pop at the funeral legit had me laughing out loud.

I watched it mostly for the Don Draper-Roger Sterling bit. Worthy send-up of those two characters. I like that they can poke a little fun at their most iconic roles.

I laughed a lot throughout but then I have a low humor threshold.

Completely agree that you'll know in a couple of minutes whether it's for you.

I liked it. The only thing that I thought was unfunny and dumb was the live little pop tart thing.

It reminded me of the Weird Al "biopic" starring Daniel Radcliffe.

I loved both movies.

So it's a high brow Adam Sandler film?

Amy Schumer has fans?

I'm debating between this and Movie 43 tonight. One seems like silly comedy. The other seems cerealously funny. Can't decide.

Don't be such a flake.

Corny joke.

I guess I'm missing the part of the funny bone this movie tickled because I think I only half chucked once or twice the entire time (when Burr/JFK made the quip about his son). I LOVE Seinfeld but this was not my cup of tea...like at all.

This was such a terrible movie that I stayed with it just to see how bad it was. I'm surprised Jerry Seinfeld did this garbage.
