Review of The Trial

The Trial (2017)
10/10
The Most Brilliant Spoof Ever!
19 July 2019
I am of the opinion that you are either a Tim Heidecker fan or you are not. His dark humor is not for everybody. However, if your mind works the "right" way, this is quite possibly the funniest human being ever. In this spin-off from "On Cinema," sociopath Tim Heidecker tries to defend himself from charges that he was responsible for the deaths of twenty young people at his Electric Sun concert. Is Tim responsible? Oh hell yeah! However, in Tim's incredibly dark and devious mind, prison is not an option. So we are treated to one of the most bizarre and narcissistic defenses ever put forward by one diseased mind. The real treat is how incredibly realistic this trial seems. The acting is so top-notch. We have the courtroom actors and favorites from the show like Gregg, Dr. San, etc.. I laughed so hard, while at the same time, feeling somewhat troubled at how comfortable Tim portrays such a sociopathic monster. I wish more people could appreciate this, but I realize that it is not for everyone.
