Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)

Director: Jake Kasdan (The TV Set, Orange County)
Stars: John C Reilly (Boogie Nights, The Perfect Storm)
Jenna Fischer ("The Office", Blades of Glory)
YesNoSoso: 1

The movie doesn't exactly have a multitude of laughs, but it makes fun of the Oscar statue coupon that is the musician biopic (re: Ray, Walk the Line, etc) and has a number of other amusing aspects that make it a definite watch. The story is good enough and watching the menagerie of current stars play old musicians is awesome. Just to name a few: Jack White as Elvis, Frankie Munoz as Buddy Holly, and quartet of very famous actors playing The Beatles. Definitely check it out but don't expect to laugh your ass off.
