What an unexpected, enjoyable find this film was. Actor-turned-writer/director Rhys Wakefield and a blonde-haired Nick Cannon parody their experience in LaLa Land with a funny, smart, tight, twisting meta-narrative that draws you in and never lets go. A modern take on movies about Hollywood such as Sunset Boulevard or Mulholland Drive, the humour is biting, satirical and self-effacing. Wakefield establishes himself as a unique voice in cinema and one to watch.

A movie within a movie, the story cleverly plays in to the classic format of a film script as the driving meta narrative to the film. The tension between Wakefield and Cannon's characters feels true to so many male friends in their late twenties that I know. Shot beautifully in the glamorous hills of Hollywood through the lens of a mushroom trip. Make some popcorn, grab your funny friend that loves a twisted story and watch this movie.
