Weird: The Al Yankovic Story Review: A Hilarious Satire of Musical Biopics

Weird: The Al Yankovic Story tells a glorious tale of unparalleled greatness. How one man conquered the music world... in a very specific category, battled a ruthless fan turned Colombian drug lord, and lustily romanced a conniving pop star seductress. You might have heard of Madonna. Insert sidesplitting laughter to tears here. "Weird Al" Yankovic and director/co-writer Eric Appel satirize biopics with deft aplomb. They take their 2010 Funny or Die parody trailer and beef it up to a hilarious feature film. Sure, Weird Al's rise to improbable success and stardom is interesting. But why not slightly exaggerate the accordion-playing shenanigans with a spicy edit.
