Fool's Paradise plot

"He's ready for his close-up."

An unfortunate cop stumbles upon a man who has just escaped from a mental institution and who resembles an actor who refuses to leave his trailer. Partly thanks to an influential producer, he succeeds in turning the foolish man into a celebrity. Together they cross paths with, among others, insolent action stars, drunk colleagues and unpredictable directors. But there is more to life than fame and fortune.

A man [Charlie Day] who doesn't talk and has the ghost of a five-year-old is bussed to Hollywood by the mental institution where he is staying because the medical costs are not reimbursed. A film producer [Ray Liotta] sees that this man looks like two drops of water like an actor in his film with whom the collaboration is extremely difficult and he decides to give this man with mutism and the mind of a five-year-old (I'm just saying) the lead role in his film. Ken Jeong plays an opportunistic publicist who gives his new client the pseudonym Latte Pronto. Of the many parodies Hollywood has made of its own little world, this is easily one of the worst. The screenplay seems to be written by and for ten-year-olds and forces an impressive supporting cast (including Adrien Brody, Jason Sudeikis and John Malkovic) to capture the most overused and/or tasteless jokes on film. The latter's Jism monologue is the nadir, but sadly typical of the intelligence level of this embarrassing waste of talent. And I certainly don't mean that of writer, director and protagonist Day. He clearly doesn't know any better.
