Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Mascots (2016)

Christopher Guest is subject to the same law of diminishing returns that plagues Wes Anderson: he keeps following the pattern that put him on the map, but the shtick is getting tired. Though the setting varies, he always hits the same awkwardly quirky beats -- and we often see the same actors going through the same paces, but in different outfits.

The only real fun here comes during the final mascot performances.
