Personally, I thought this was a steaming pile of you-know-what. Had the supporting actors played it straight then I might have bought into it but everyone was hamming it up so much (as actors do when they know something isn't very funny) that you couldn't possibly think it was real. Take the buffet scene, for instance. The 'star' of the film is asked to protect the food! Perry might not be a rocket scientist but anyone with an interest in the business would know that would never happen. To support their claims that the film is genuine it's been stated that Perry suffered brain damage in a car accident. Even if that was the case, where's the entertainment value in making a fool out of someone who's mentally impaired? I'm sorry, but I just don't buy into it one bit. I'd suggest that if the joke's on anyone, it's the people who believe it was real. Simply wanting something to be real doesn't make it so.
