Exactly what you expect, and want out of these popcorn flicks. Fun, laughs, and shenanigans. Not a lot of stakes in the story. Similar to “The Great Outdoors,” but without as many comedic big guns on the bill. Slap on some sunscreen, and get your front row sandy seat to the annual regatta, it’s sure to be a good time!

Don’t read into this one too much… Guy who watches a lot of movies becoming a serial killer. Yikes.
Strong “Taxi Driver” and “King of Comedy” vibes from this one. Excellent performance by Dennis Christopher. Such an interesting premise, so well executed. Interesting to watch and catch all of the homages and callbacks to Hollywood classics. Highly recommend if you’re looking for an outside the box spooky film for the Halloween season.
8.1
Did not see this one coming out of left field. A super fun 10 episode ride full of debauchery, treachery, and straight up fun. Such an oddball group of characters. A mix between “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” and “Insatiable.” Turn your brain off and, like, kick ass.
8.5
Selena Gomez cooks. Hilarity ensues. Home run for HBO Max.
SPOILER ALERT: Despite her best efforts, she does keep all 10 fingers through the end of season 1.
7.2
If you liked the originals, you’ll enjoy this one. Same old Bill and Ted shenanigans. An… interesting soundtrack. Cameos galore, including the valiant return of Death! The narrative was a bit messy at times, but it was great to see the dynamic duo back together for an hour and a half of fun. Power up your phone booth, and get ready to dial the fun up to 11!
