Funny! Worth watching., 24 October 2004
Author: warriorwhacko

Not to be confused with the ACTUAL documentary of a failed startup (Startup.com) this "mockumentary" was created at around the same time as "Startup". However, it's a mostly improvised effort of the fake rise & fall of a fake startup .com company. This parody was born from the actual experience of the directors (one of whom plays the "CEO" in the film) who worked at 2 different failed startups. Their experience at "what really went on" in those startups show, to very funny proportions. The characters are really developed and believable in their own broth of incompetence. Also good were some thoughtful lines pointing out the whole insane philosophy of the "new economy" era. A must see for those who lived through this time.
