Unfrosted
In 1963 Michigan, business rivals Kellogg's and Post compete to create a cake that could change breakfast forever. Jerry Seinfeld directs and stars as Bob in the extremely made up story of the creation of Kelloggs' Pop Tarts. Suffering from competition from Amy Schumer's rival cereal company, Bob hires a number of improbable characters including NASA nutritionist Melissa McCarthy, to create a new breakfast treat which doesn't require milk, something the milk people are not pleased about. It is rare these days to find a comedy that is just plain silly and riddled throughout with daft jokes and a mountain of strange and funny people.
