SNL has always been a staple in my life. When finding out last year that Jason Reitman was helming Saturday Night, the film based on the 90 minutes leading up to the first episode, I was excited. Who better than the son of Ivan to get this close? Well Jason has crafted his masterpiece. This is a chaotic, coke fueled slice of the 70s that looks and feels the part. I was reminded of Martin Scorsese throughout and it even feels very PT Anderson (a man that himself feels very Scorsese). All the casting is phenomenal especially that of George Carlin, Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi. This could be the years best.
