Think there are no good critics? Elvis Mitchell, baby. Bob Mondello.
If Schneider's rant had been funny, it would have been somewhat appropriate. In fact, he may have meant it to be funny and is just so misguided about funny that it came off lame. Mostly, it looks like an egotistical rant about somebody who doesn't have a whole lot to be egotistical about. His finest moment was makin' copies. He was one of those SNL cast members that appeared on the show starting you don't know when, and then disappeared and you don't notice.
Honestly, were I a Rob Schneider fan, I would look at this episode and wonder when this goofy dude who makes movies to get stoned to suddenly turned into a tight ass bitch.
