Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Hader and Wiig improvised extensively; the dentist office scene was entirely unscripted.
Released during peak 'sad comedy' era (2014), it helped legitimize SNL alumni as dramatic leads—paving the way for Palm Springs and Barry.

Reactions from the web
It is a relief to have a gay character who doesn't just have the one quality of being gay but actually has layers.

genuinely disappointed that this isnt a movie about 2 skeletons rising from the grave and trying to figure out who's skeletons they were

I like how all the actors are known for comedy, but give amazing dramatic performances.
