As a non American I've never ever heard of this guy before. I came here in 2022 after seeing a video of 'what happened to Paul's shore' tgat cropped up on you tube and had to see if he was un funny and un talented but amazing guy successful as tge clip claimed this, back in 2003, was meant to be him comeback redemption movie and it is incredibly, for two things, first, tge incredible amount of cakes from famous people he managed to call in and second how unbelievable bad, considering it's a 'comeback' movie, it is made. Tge directing, shooting, lighting and editing are plain awful. Not having any nostalgic or emotional attachment to the guy from the 90s I can safely say those that do are woefully misguided. This brand of 'comedy' is just tragic. It's so bad. What were you all thinking. As far as I can see this guys talent back then was that his mum owned a famous comedy club and basically that gave him a career, albeit a limited one. Once that had run it's course and the Pauly gravy train had run it's course, it was all over in about 7 years. Not bad really for someone with little to no talent. He had a good run. So don't feel sorry for Pauly. Not only is he still working but he got to star in a load of movies. Most people would give their right arm to have had that life back then. His life was so good he was able to pull together this group of celebs including Pamela Anderson and Charlie Sheen to make this amateur looking crap. So, 21 years later did it work? Nahhhhh. Of course not. He's still as obscure to anyone outside 1990s US as he ever was. He's gone back to tge clubs and still doing stand up. Is he funny in 2022? You tell me. Judging by this I've no desire to find out.
