This looks awesome

A parody of someone’s life that’s a king of parodies. Genius. Clever
 
Well, it's a weird movie, but once you realize it's actually a parody of biopics, it all makes sense. Everything is exaggerated, or reversed, or just made up. It's surely different, and pretty fun. Just need to be better prepared than me as to what this movie is like!

Evan Rachel Wood is great as 'Evil Madonna', and there's an awesome Boogie Nights scene parody that I loved.
