Reno 911!: It's a Wonderful Heist

I love 'Reno 911!'. But I hate Christmas films (with a few exceptions to be fair). So this was a weird little combo for me. To be honest I was just happy to be getting another 'Reno 911!' film so soon after last years one. Last year's was truly brilliant and I'm sure that's why they got the green-light for another one.

This one however felt a bit rushed. It felt like it was a couple of re-writes short of being what it could be. Making a film on a tight time-budget is always a risky procedure from what I understand.

Even the worst 'Reno 911!' skits are going to make you laugh in some way though. And while some of the stuff in the film was a miss, there are also some scenes that are right up there with the best this show has to offer. So not the best this product has to offer, but still a lot of fun. 7/10.

Fan of the series and happy to see any Reno 911 content, however, as the time passes and the cast starts to slowly change up, I'm growing weary that there's starting to be little left to enjoy. Wanted to turn it off a few times but I'm dedicated to Reno but glad it's only 78 minutes long. Just a notch above waste of time. The smiles were few and far between. The writing seemed kind of dull. As the acting has been watered down as well. Definitely not up to Miami or Q potential. One thing I noticed that definitely made me loose interest is there's no deputy Travis Junior and very little of Garcia. Unfortunately it seems like it's starting to crumble before our very eyes. You can skip this one if you'd like and still live a fulfilling life.

Me and my wife watched about forty minutes of this poop and couldn't do it anymore. I been a fan of this show since I was 14 years old and this was NOTHING like the original show. The interactions with them seemed kinda off and jokes seemed forced.

The main characters barely had lines, I don't even remember Garcia having speaking lines from what I saw and the absence of junior is extremely noticeable. Everyone one looked like they were sleepy or just didn't wanna be there.

I'm gonna try to rewatch it and see if nostalgia was just clouding my judgement but this was not what I was expecting in the least bit.

It had some slightly funny moments (Terry's mistletoe wiener🤣) but the jokes just didn't have the same punch they used to have. All the banter between the cops wasn't even natural feeling.

Everything just seems off.

Fan of the series and thankful to see any Reno 911 content; however, it's getting to the point where even I grow weary as the cast dwindles and the terrific banter wanes and there is little left to enjoy. Wanted to turn it off a few times, fortunately it was only 78 minutes. Just a notch above a waste of time, and that is from a long term fan's point of view. I did not crack a smile until the second half of the movie and I really do not see how they are able to find any financial backers to produce such a film. The writing is noticeably worse than even the last marginal film and an expanded cast does not make up for the lack of chemistry and quality banter between the remaining original cast members. You may want to skip this one.

A consistently funny, truly Altman-esque rollercoaster of excellent sight gags, brilliant performances, grand jokes and hilarious throwaway lines. Just when you think they've gone too far, they go above and beyond.

Much of the action is set in what appears to be a decaying mall, where the deputies are trying to protect a huge nugget of some kind. It's enough of a hook to support the thin plot.

By the time you take the magical sleigh ride, you'll be ready for anything!

If you don't laugh out loud, you should move to a state with legal cannabis (why not Reno?)... and keep trying!
