Steve Coogan plays a clueless failed-actor/high school drama teacher who fights the authorities to put on his politically incorrect sequel to Hamlet. It is a musical where Jesus and Hamlet build a time machine to go back and save everyone who dies in the original Hamlet (pretty much everyone). It includes tunes like "Rock Me Sexy Jesus", and Jesus' final line is "If my dad ever finds out what I did he will crucify me".
Elisabeth Shue is brilliant as Elisabeth Shue. Amy Poehler and David Arquette shine in small parts. Steve Coogan is a very underrated actor.
I might have to check that out. Sounds like a great cast. Plus, even after all of these years, Elizabeth Shue still does it for me.
