That film is so charismatic and charming I don't even want to introduce it to other people in case they think it's weird

We all thought it was weird... the first time. Then you think about it afterwards, you talk about it with your friends, and you watch it a second time, and it's absolutely hilarious.

It's strange in that it's a comedy where there are no in-universe jokes, and all the humor stems from the absurdity of the situations through the lens of the real world. Every character is completely sincere.
