Watched the Hulu one, it is the lesser film for sure but did add some new angles. Judging from the interview I would say Billy is just a con artist. Completely culpable. Funny to watch him squirm. His mom is also in this, voiced by a robot but sounding just as duplicitous as her spawn. Genetics, perhaps, or maybe just a mom doing damage control. Apparently scuba diving at ten years old is precocious and somehow explains turning into a compulsive liar later on. That story about his crayon enterprise sounded so made up as well. As for gold diggers, how about that Carola woman! Billy's chick should take notes. She can afford to sink her husband's millions into train wrecks like this and never have to worry about it. Must be nice.
I liked how the Hulu film calls them on their bullshit more, but the edit is very ADD and messy. Ja Rule drunkenly implicates himself at the end, so it sort of pays to sit it out. Ryan Lay boards are hard to come by where I am, it turns out. For shame, as it would compensate nicely for the clusterfuck of inauthenticity I consumed over the last 24 hours.
