Robert Downey, Jr. is fucking hysterical. And I'll admit that I found myself laughing quite a bit. (The two surprise cameos are what really did it for me, but I won't spoil them.) The whole point of the movie-within-the-movie is specifically to criticize people who are insensitive towards the mentally disabled. I'm kind of at a loss why they'd pick this film to do this to. There are far worse examples of it.</p>
