There’s little doubt, however, that A Night at the Roxbury isn’t entirely able to justify its feature-length running time, as the movie, though running about 77 minutes without credits, suffers from a handful of palpable lulls and ineffective subplots that cumulatively prevent the viewer from ever wholeheartedly embracing the material. It’s a thin premise that’s employed to mostly watchable yet exceedingly hit-and-miss effect by John Fortenberry, as the filmmaker, working from a script by Ferrell, Kattan, and Steve Koren, delivers a relatively brisk comedy that benefits from its stars’ likeable work and an ongoing emphasis on admittedly amusing gags and set-pieces – with the movie, in addition, certainly receiving plenty of mileage out of the appealing efforts of an eclectic supporting cast that includes Dan Hedaya, Molly Shannon, and Michael Clarke Duncan.

During a montage of celebrity impressions it becomes clear Kattan is not the best mimic on the show, but his take on Pacino is absolutely hilarious. My absolute favourite in this collection has to be the 'How do you say? Ah Yes! Show' with Antonio Banderas and Jennifer Love Hewitt. Besides, I think they edited it somewhat. The ones with The Rock and Tom Hanks were much funnier. Peepers skit with Kevin Spacey as the best one. When it comes to his most energetic and far out character of all, I would not have picked the Mr. For some reason Jovi seems to drag out the ending long past the stage of being funny. J-lo), Suel Forrester in court, the Zimmermans at Halloween (Chris and Cheri Oteri are a great match) and that other pair of dancing brothers, the DeMarco's, auditioning for Bon Jovi.
