Kill Ben Lyk

The main character is an almost insufferable vlogger stereotype, but the humor is able to carry it regardless, and I was pretty entertained throughout. Would definitely recommend for movie night with friends or similar.

The run time makes this more bearable, it's nothing ground breaking but does have a few moments that make you laugh, although it also has a few that make you groan. The acting at times is decent and at times woeful. The whole film is the kind of film that almost...almost is a good film but just doesn't quite get over the line as one I'd recommend immediately but if you need to kill 80 mins you could do worse..

Not a film I'd watch twice but don't feel the universe owes me time back for the first viewing so there's that at least...

All in all, average movie let down at times by dodgy acting and a dodgy plot, but it's also slightly daft and amusing...marmite film maybe?

The main setback is that the vlogger character has way too much screen time and he's tiresome. to see and hear after 20 minutes. Someone so utterly stupid is never funny more than five minutes in because for the rest of the movie you keep thinking, "This would be more fun if he got what he deserved, got dispatched, in the second act, then the show could go on." That would be achieved by making all the Ben Lyk characters responsible for carrying the movie, rather than the putx hwo is stuck at age five all the way through. Yes, in real life utter imbeciles may surive to a mature age, but in entertainment, we are not obliged to reflect that much realism.

I'm not sure what happened to British comedy ("cough....woke") but humour is no longer their strong suit.

"Kill Ben Lyk" isn't funny. Its premise and characters follow a predictable tired trajectory, accompanied by hackneyed humour, that's simply put, unintelligent and boring.

I managed about thirty minutes before giving up. The acting is fine but so much else is uninspired, there is little left to say.

May suit the easy pleased but, I suspect, it will irritate the discerning.

3/10.

I've heard the term "it's so bad it's actually good", but I could never make sense of it... until now. This movie is so weird I ended up enjoying it completely, with its twisted plot and oddball characters. Not quite Guy Ritchie, but it has similar vibes.
