I will admit this is a different comedy and not for everyone, but it deserves far higher a rating than it got. I can only guess it is because it is a Canadian movie with Canadian humour and we are after all far outnumbered by Americans.
I love character comedies, especially when done as a mocumentary. "Best in Show", "Mighty Wind", "Borat" and a host of others are among my favourites and I believe Ham and Cheese is a great character movie.
These two dolts have not a thimble of talent between them, yet they have dedicated their lives to succeeding as actors. We follow them from leaving home to various auditions, always getting insight into their passion and commitment. Highlights are Beaver paying for his lessons with Foley in saved change and Jones telling us his theories on comedy timing as he waits for a price from a hooker.
If you like well developed, funny characters living their unbelievable lives for the camera then give this a try.
