A fledgling and therefore slightly disappointing effort from Jody Hill but it has some funny moments.

I'm a fan of Jody Hill's dark sensibilities. He also doesn't think of the movie as a typical comedy; and it is not. It's dark and dismal. The lead character is quite racist and quite delusional.

From http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/features/jody-hill-observe-and-report-interview.php

When Hill describes his movie as a comedy, it’s clear that he’s uneasy about the moniker - a new reality to deal with while working with a major studio. It’s much easier for a marketing team to tell the public at large that something is a comedy or a drama, something that fits neatly into those two boxes, than to make a trailer that tries to capture the true nature of a movie that should (if it succeeds) make you laugh during the dramatic parts and give you pause during the funnier sections.

When the film played at SxSW - the crowd was ideal for the screening. It was a huge audience all revved up and ready to laugh. Of course, it also helped that Seth Rogen’s hearty, boisterous laugh filled the room along with everyone else. It’s a funny movie - but even Hill doesn’t think that it will have the same hilarious effect in the general release.

“I don’t know if the movie is going to play quite as funny to people who are watching it at home. I tend to think it’s kind of a sad movie,” he says.

Those two guys on the couch are my friends! Ben Best ("Is that blood?") and Jody Hill ("I've never before seen that in my life").

Actually, Jody Hill directed a movie that should FINALLY be coming out in August called THE FOOT FIST WAY, which is the funniest fucking movie I've seen in a long, long time. Will Farrell saw it and decided to attach his name to it. Coincidentally, Ben Best is in that, also. They're really cool guys, so don't think this is me dropping names, but rather a good friend giving them props. Assholes.
