I had a blast with this. Jason Reitman continues to be one of my favorite modern directors and infused this movie with so much frenetic energy. Whoever was in charge of casting deserves all the awards, because every actor disappeared into the character they were playing to the point where I felt like I was watching the original SNL cast. I do wish that during the credits they had included portions of the original sketches or their cast recreating them. That would have been fun.
