A Weak Attempt - Jim Breuer & Pizza Hut

Jim Breuer or more to the point, Pizza Hut have missed the mark with their latest viral marketing attempt. The scenario places Jim Breuer in front of a rolling camera as he shoots a new Pizza Hut "TV Commercial." I have gathered that the general premise of the not so funny or compelling clip is that Jim is angered when a production hand does not allow him to eat the pizza he is promoting. He is seen to "blow a fuse" and in apparent anger, "push the assistant in the pool."

In this case the actor isn't exactly convincing, however much of the blame must rest on the script writters and the people behind the concept. It would seem that the people at Pizza Hut were simply trying too hard, with lines such as: dude, don't roll up on me manand dude, why you even followin' me?I am interested to see if others think this is legit or not, view the botched clip below and leave your comments:
