Good start, care of remarkably good, love-to-hate-him Sabara. Loses focus, interest in "satiric" second hour.

Best-case scenario: Goldthwait evolves into more consistent filmmaker willing to topple sacred cows of "American values" from eccentric angles, with access to popular talent. Early, but hopeful.
