Another addition to the ever-growing mockumentary genre. A British camera crew follows Crawford Mackenzie (Craig Ferguson), a Scottish hairstylist, as he travels to Los Angeles to take part in the Platinum Scissors Competition, put on by the World Hairdressing International Federation. Unfortunately, it turns out that Crawford misread the invitation, which was only to be in the audience. But he refuses to let that stop him, and works his way through the L.A. social world. In the process, he befriends Sean Connery's agent (Frances Fisher), who helps him finally get a chance to show the world his hairstyling genius. The Big Tease is at its best when completely indulging its hero--Crawford's delight at the amenities of his hotel, such as electric curtains, is charming and infectious. Ferguson has a gift for a kind of deadpan silliness, a dry humor that never becomes anything but frivolous--in a good way. The plot is beside the point; the ruthless depiction of fatuous L.A. social behavior, however, is sharp. Comedian Larry Miller has a brilliant turn as an unctuous hotel manager named Dunstan Cactus, and there are numerous cameos, including David Hasselhoff and Drew Carey playing themselves. --Bret Fetzer

The film is a mockumentary about Crawford Mackenzie (Craig Ferguson) a Glasgow, Scotland hairdresser who dreams of hitting it big 'for the little people.' When he gets an invite to the World Hairdressers International Finals, he believes he is to be a competitor. He arrives in LA only to have his dream shattered. He was only invited as a guest.
But Crawford is not the kind of man who gives up easily. His machinations to get into the competition are hilarious. I cannot say I am ... Read More

Craig Ferguson does a good job as a Scottish hair stylist who mistakenly believes he's been invited to compete in the "Platinum Scissors Hair Competition" in LA.
Once he realizes he's not one of the contestants, he goes through some funny machinations to get invited to the competition. His portrayal of a gay hairdresser is seemingly "on the button" without being over the top. His character is real and likeable and the portrayal of Hollywood is what one would expect. No surprises, other ... Read More

Craig Ferguson plays Scottish hairdresser Crawford Mackenzie, Glasgow's finest, who comes to the United States for a haircut competition. His adventures from start to finish are truly comical and any fan of Craig would be very happy with this purchase.

This is one of the cutest 'unknown' movies ever! It's sweet and funny and heartbreaking all at the same time, not to mention all the guest stars' cameos. Is there anything Craig Ferguson can't do?
Rating: -
This movie might be a bit over the top for some people; however I think that it is Craig Ferguson's best acting performance. (Just watch his facial expressions when he is hurt or vulnerable.) If you like him, or like off-beat, you'll like this one.
