Redundant and unnecessary.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

This movie was recommended by a friend and was a real surprise treat! It is fast-paced, hilarious, clever, and enjoyable to watch on so many levels. It has characters you can really care about, too, and you can't help but root for the hero and cheer him on. The acting and comedic timing and dialog are superb, and Ferguson's portrayal of innocent single-minded determination and heart is simply charming and extremely well done. It's so unique, how would one describe it -- "Zoolander" meets "Best in Show"? "Braveheart" meets "Spinal Tap"? No -- no comparisons can do it justice. Just rent it and be dazzled! You'll be glad you did.

I love this movie so much. It has such a funny plot line and the writing is so good (Craig Ferguson, the star, wrote it). This is one of the best faux documentary movies I've ever seen. I think it also has a sweet little story about fulfilling your dreams and I love the ending. I'm also a big fan of Craig Ferguson's other work, like Saving Grace. If you liked this, I would reccomend that as well.

Trying to do for hairdressing what 'Strictly Ballroom' did for ballroom dancing, 'The Big Tease' follows Glaswegian hairdresser Crawford MacKenzie as he tries to get himself into the cut throat competition for the coveted 'Platinum Scissors' - a contest he's been invited to watch, but not to take part in. But it is so obvious that he'll walk away with the prize that there isn't any kind of feelgood factor about it.Taking the well worn fish-out-of-water scenario, 'The Big Tease' is far too slight to really make much of an impression. The whole Hollywood wannabe lifestyle is too easy a target for this type of comedy, and although some there is some mileage to be had from the situations, it all feels very stale. Actually, the film itself shows signs of suffering from that same wannabe mentality that it tries to lampoon. There are various 'celebrity' cameos, but they only serve as a reminder of how small scale the movie is. And when the expected Sean Connery cameo doesn't materialise it is an indication of the film's underachievement. An overlong sitcom pilot episode.�

This is a funny, funny movie and the ending is hilarious! The ever-moving, documentary style of the film is reminiscent of "This is Spinal Tap". Craig Ferguson is outstanding as the irrepressible Scottish hair stylist.
