Reviews
Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
Supelice Dreadfully Boring
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Michael Nakayama This popped up on a recommended watch list and I'm a sucker or Thomas Middleditch and Nick Kroll. Its a fun comedy that hits you right in the feels. Everything feels right on point with real life and connects with you. Every connection feels real, and no interactions felt out of place in this movie. Not slapstick funny like "The Hangover", but takes a slightly more solemn humor and has plenty of real moments to make this feel far more engaging, even when the strippers show up. I didn't read any reviews prior, and I feel that the general synopsis written makes you think "Hangover + Parks and Rec + Silicon Valley + some general depression and solemness". This movie takes some rote comedic humor like bachelor party drugs and strippers, and you start to see the haze of depression slowly clear. But not because of the partying, but because of each other and the things they experienced together. All in all, this was a great movie that felt like a brief interlude of someone going through a tough time. I was still engaged and connected to several characters, but when characters didn't reappear and hold hands and make out at the end or else where, it felt OK. You don't know what happened and that's fine, because you're just along for the ride.
Larry Silverstein I'm not in the demographic that this film was intended for, so perhaps I'm not the best person to rate it. The premise revolves around its main character Joshy's (Thomas Middleditch) decision to still hold his pre- planned "bachelor party", even though his fiancé committed suicide some 4 months beforehand. As Joshy's friends and acquaintances gather at a rented home in the country, I felt, as things progressed, that some of the dark and dry humor was quite effective, especially that of the dweebish Adam (Alex Ross Perry). However, more often than not the characters and plot machinations could get rather annoying and even "go off the rails" into areas that just didn't work, in my opinion.To note, there's plenty of drug usage on screen, lots of raw language, explicit references, and one scene of nudity.All in all, unfortunately I thought the negatives here outweighed the positives and thus only a fair rating.
erolsabadosh I watched this with no prior knowledge of what it would be and was very pleasantly surprised. There's a great cast, all of whom I've seen and enjoyed in their various TV shows. The story is about a group of friends on a weekend retreat bonding after a traumatic event and it's mostly just conversations and mundane character interactions, usually involving drinking and drugs.Some of it was absolutely hilarious and some of it was very emotional, yet it all felt very real. It's not a mind blowing or deep film but it's brisk, fun and well acted. A great low key adult comedy! Definitely recommended.
mr-roboto-kilroy First off let me say that there are a few good, but not great actors in this movie. Whom I like in other TV Shows and Movies. So I thought that I might like this one. I was sadly mistaken. This movie didn't seem to have a scripted. It was like a non-funny "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" episode. I'm guessing the director just gave the actors a bio on each of their characters and let them improvise their lines. It's an interesting concept that didn't work. I really wanted to like this movie. I honestly tried to keep an open mind. It was just a chaotic mess right from the first. There was no part in the movie that I found funny, humorous or slightly witty. Don't wast your time on this one.
