Delirious, over-the-top, gorgeous to look at and with comic timing delivered at a machine-gun pace, Spain’s “My Big Night” is not only the fastest-moving film of the year so far this side of “Hardcore Henry,” but one of the most entertaining as well.
Álex de la Iglesia’s instant camp classic is set in a TV studio, where the filming of a New Year’s Eve broadcast filled with celebrities is fraught with difficulties.
A crane falls on an extra; there are riots and protests outside the studio; a hunky singer is being blackmailed by two girl-crush fans; a Sinatra-like aging crooner is targeted for assassination by his adopted son and manager; and two extras fall in love, even though the woman seems to be a bad-luck charm.
[...] in his 70s, he seems to be having great fun parodying himself, bringing gusto as a maniacally demanding father and an egotist jealous of the hot young singer of the moment, the Fabio-like Adanne (Mario Casas).
Adanne’s big hit “Fireman” is sexually suggestive lunacy; he’s the one being blackmailed by social media-savvy fans.
The heart and soul of the movie is the opposites-attract relationship between two extras, the nebbish Jose (Pepón Nieto) and the hot but accident-prone Paloma (Blanca Suárez).
