Most of the big studio films out there try way to hard to go for the joke. These filmmakers actually put some thought behind the style of the humor. Yes there was a little too much bathroom humor for some people, but I strongly suggest that you rent this. I loved it. It reminded me a little of Bottle Rockets by Wes Anderson. There are too many movies that have the same five actors. It's nice to see some fresh faces. I wouldn't be surprised if these brothers become a powerful force within the industry. I look forward to more of your stuff guys! Keep it up! BenP.S. Really great commentary on the DVD.

I have never heard of this film, so I have no idea if it ever was in a real movie theater. I also have never heard of the film's stars, yet I went ahead and rented this movie. I use the term, movie, very loosely, as it was a very unsatisfying viewing experience. Very bad acting. I mean really bad. And the story line was very poor. Something along the lines of two very unattractive teens who want to be DJ's, and what is supposed to be comedy situations revolving around this so called plot. I had previously thought that "Attack of the killer tomatoes" was the worst film I had seen. But now this DJ film has eclipsed the former film as the worst film I ever had to sit through. I am 18 years old, so I usually like teen comedies. I even can manage a smile if a film is only semi-decent. But honestly, I never laughed once watching this. I did, however, frown at this piece of mush and would never dare sit through it again. It is beyond bad. It is stupid. Really lame. Blah!

Hi, Everyone,I have just watched the DVD of L.A. D.J. and I will send my bouquets to all the cast and the crew. This one is worth watching.The actors are all likable and we probably have met someone like each of these people at some point in our lives. I like the mom and the security guard at the disco door and the nurse and the deejay on the Razor scooter and all the grandmas and kids and creeps who show up in Tom and Tim's lives. Tim and Tom might be the Laurel and Hardy of the late night music scene. They have a smiling ineptitude that gives those of us in the audience a chance to see how smart we are. We know who will fall in love with whom before they can figure it out.Steve McQueen's first real movie success gave no hint of the parts he would play in later years. His debut starring role was in "The Blob." It was a good movie but Steve quickly did totally different roles. That might be the case with Tom and Tim. They might do more zany comedy or either of them might find a bigger role just beyond the rainbow.Hollywood will not roll out a red carpet for independent filmmakers these days. Maybe Tim and Tom will find a red linoleum leading into the back door of some awards show that recognizes what this movie represents. This is real movie making that could catapult these two past the Hollywood glamour boys of today. Excellent photography, casting and background locations. There are a lot of little laughs if you look for them or listen for them. All the cast members do a great job, which means there was good direction happening too.Tom Willett aka Yonhope

I was invited to watch this film whilst at the Sundance Film Festival and I was massively impressed with the comic talent displayed in this film....Both the writing and acting was first class with a commendable comic performance from all of the cast... most notable was Thomas Ian Nicholas (aka Thombo) of American Pie fame, Tim Scarne (aka Timbo), and Caleb Moody (Larry).I will look forward to the next films in which the afore-mentioned three will be appearing... and for now my only advice is......GO SEE THE FILM!!Johnny English
