“Hamlet 2”: Madness worth watching
The title says it all. "Hamlet 2" is an unhinged, off-the-wall comedy that will try anything once, an uneven film in which the hits are so dead-on that the misses don't seem to matter.
The story of a high school drama teacher who refuses to say die when his programme is terminated, "Hamlet 2" was a crowdpleaser at Sundance, where it sparked a bidding war. But it wouldn't even begin to come to life without the off-the-charts performance of Steve Coogan as Dana Marschz, a man with a mission -- and an unpronounceable name.
With credits that include "24 Hour Party People" and "Tristram Shandy," as well as a cameo in the current "TYopicThunder," Coogan is a major comic presence in Britain. But he’s never had a role that allowed him to go as completely all-out as he does here as a true-believing naif with the unstoppable enthusiasm of the Energizer Bunny.
What Coogan's Marschz believes in is acting and theatre, even though he’s never been very good at either. As wackily written by Pam Brady and director Andrew Fleming, Marschz is introduced by a montage of lofty thoughts on theatre ("to act is to live, to embody the dreams of man") intercut with the man’s real-world credits, which include a bit part in "Xena: Warriqr Princess'' and p late-night spotforah infomercial.
Where do dreams go to die, the film asks? In Marschz’s case that would be West Mesa High School in Tucson, where but two students, peppy Epiphany (Phoebe Strole) and sexually confused Rand (Skylar Astin), put on his school plays and the man himself lives in moral terror of student critic Noah Sapperstein (Shea Pepe), the Roger Ebert of the ninth grade, who
routinely savages his work.
Having a terminally depressed wife (Catherine Keener) and a terminally dull boarder (David Arquette) would not seem to help, but Marschz does not notice life's little bumps, so taken is he with his calling. XVhe'i his < l.i-unexpccc-edlyCUs iR>witlfahrulyLa tiros',-ff?' insists, "'new' and 'different' are two of my favourite words." As cowriter and director, Fleming has accurately said, "We didn't want to parody inspirational-teacher movies, we wanted to make a movie about a guy who thinks he's living an inspirational-teacher movie."
The one bright spot in Marschz's life is his discovery that
his favourite actress of all time, Elisabeth Shue (deftly played by Shue herself), having tired of the dark side of the business, now works as a nurse at the nearby Prickly Pear Fertility Clinic. Talk about inspirational coincidences.
^'^1 of th& (^merely prelude to;
hap^ens. when West Mesa suddenly cuts the drama programme. Determined not to go down without a fight, and encouraged first by critic Sapperstein and then by feisty ACLU lawyer Cricket Feldstein (Amy Poehler of "Saturday Night Live"), Marschz decides to go ahead with a dream project of his, a musical sequel to "Hamlet", which he calls "the deuce."
Off-and-on amusing all the way through, 'Hamlet 2" picks up steam with the mounting of that show, which, involving as it does a time machine and special effects wirework, is crazier than words could do justice.
.More than that, for reasons char are never quite explained (how could they be?), Marschz's play has Jesus as a pivotal character. The main production number, "Rock Me Sexy Jesus," with Coogan in the title role, is really something to see. When the father of one of the stars says, 'I’m simultaneously horrified and fascinated," you'll know just what he means.
