Weird: The Al Yankovic Story
ActionAdventureComedyCrimeMusical108 min
Daniel Radcliffe is “Weird Al” Yankovic in a biopic that sends up music-legend mythology as much as it traces Al’s rise from accordion-obsessed kid to parody-song sensation. Early hits like “Eat It” and “Like a Surgeon” launch him into sudden fame, and the movie treats every turn in his career with straight-faced excess: disapproving parents, celebrity romance, tabloid scandal, and a wildly inflated public image. Evan Rachel Wood and Rainn Wilson round out the cast as the film reshapes Yankovic’s life into a deliberately overblown pop-star saga, folding his real career into a broad spoof of the musical biopic form.
