POSITIVES…
Two and a half minutes into this movie, and I'm already thinking "what the hell am I watching? This is not what I expected." Nice.
Right from that beginning, it has an energetically infectiously daffy tone that carries throughout the whole story.
There's an unpredictability to the narrative that I completely appreciated.
The humor is on point! From tongue in cheek fun, to laugh out loud hilarity.
Tons of absurd silliness, cartoony nonsense, and ridiculous stupidity.
Wacky bizarre weird imagery and visual gags galore.
Quick steady pacing that's like watching sketch comedy skits back to back to back.
Dialogue is top notch for this kind of movie. Kudos to the screenwriting over all.
Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo are absolutely fabulously fantastic!
Gotta give Jamie Dornan credit here. He's really pushing himself, but he knows what kind of movie he is in, and makes it work!
Reyn Doi as Yoyo.
"Edgar’s Prayer."
A flashback sequence that I'm pretty sure is unlike anything I've ever seen.
Love. Friendship. Adventure.
Culottes are women's trousers, usually calf length, cut full to resemble a skirt. Typically worn by women in their middle age years.
NEGATIVES…
It's a bunch of silliness, nonsense, and stupidity. I won't blame you if this movie isn't for you.
If you think Jamie Dornan was out of his league here, well I wouldn't blame you there too.
Comedy is subjective, so there's that as well.
There’s a story arc that isn’t exactly original.
It can be argued that it loses its momentum at a certain point.
"Darlie Bunkle." Probably the only joke that I didn't think was that funny.
LOVED IT enjoyeditlikedititsokayitsmehitsterrible
