Not many people know who weird Al Yankovic is today apart from the hardcore fans who listened to his classic songs that were mainly famous throughout the 80's and the 90's, Weird Al mainly re-writes famous songs sung by famous pop singers and rock stars and turns them into silly and hilarious parodies! He famously is know also for his passion of playing the Accordion which he plays on many of his albums, he's done songs by many famous people including Madonna, Michael Jackson, Queen, and even turned American pie into a song about Star Wars. A very funny comedian who has starred in previous movies like UHF and cameoed in other popular comedies like Naked gun. The new movie is absolutely hilarious from beginning to end, its a highly exaggerated parody of his real life with a long list of amazing stars such as Daniel Radcliffe, Jack Black, Rainn Wilson, Evan Rachel Wood and even the real Weird Al himself plays a character, the movie is original and funny and is a must watch its a breath of fresh air, and it'll even make you look up the years of music Weird Al has made over the years and find some fun in that.
