Not only did I not laugh out-loud, chuckle or grin.... I didn't get it. Must be a generational thing. With 36 others looking at it and NOT commenting, I must not be the only one.

what's not to get?

who are these people that comment on these sites?

I get the gag.

It's not funny.

'Something missing from the setup. I'd like to see it done by someone with talent.

[Filliam H. Muffman]

I liked it. It sort of reminded me of this Dilbert series.

[Marc Anthony]

This "humor" is lost on me. Even with multiple viewings, no sense is made.

[Buzz]

no clue.
explanation needed.

It's a little split-screen humor - the character in the kitchen is displaced by the caller (and seemingly sent off into another scene somewhere with David Bowie). See how the phone bounces off the split screen "box" and the broom smacks it out of the way?

Worth a chuckle

Any joke that you have to explain is not funny and is not a joke.

I had to watch it twice to get it too, partially because from the title, I expected them to be watching a movie, not literally IN a movie. We've been programmed to accept and instantly understand that split-screen visual cue and not even think twice, which makes the joke harder to pull off.
