Angry Neighbors

I think this was some sort of elitist attempt at self deprecating humor? That is my best guess , but I could be wrong. From the very first sentence of the movie it wasn't funny and simply bad. It only snowballed downhill from here. The acting is poor and just about every scene or chapter is at best distasteful and at its worst downright crude.

Out of the 150 movies I've reviewed on IMDB not a single one was this bad. Some movies have bad acting that damages the overall film quality but this would score a 0 in every possible way to one could rate a movie. It is a shame that reviewers are obligated to even give it a one star.

Highly recommend not viewing this to save time you will not get back in your life.

The movie seems promising but once u start it its shocks u. Its so boring, nor funny and the director is beyond horrible. They leave all the beautiful scenery n focus on faces making us unable to see whats going on or where are we!

The story line is slow and its simply too much talk between the old man n his dog which shouldn't be a movie.

I wish they focused on the beautiful surrounding instead, it could've helped the viewers enjoy it a bit.

Try it yourself and see if u can find any fun in this film. For us its a total no and i should trust the rating as it has three and half star on prime tv.

I loved this movie. I recently saw another movie about an elderly curmudgeon "A Man Called Otto" with Tom Hanks. I stopped watching it after 20 minutes. It didn't ring true for me. Frank Langella's curmudgeon did. I laughed all the way through this movie. I suspect a person would need to be an elderly disaffected crank themselves to fully appreciate this film. I qualify. As of this writing, I am 8 months away from being 70 years old. I identified greatly with Mr. Langella's character. So unhappy with the changes in the world. Thank goodness, I am not as bitter or as angry as he. I felt sorry for his loneliness and isolation. I have been a fan of Mr. Langella since 1970, the year he starred in "Diary of a Mad Housewfe" and Mel Brook's "The Twelve Chairs". These two movies really showcased his talent and versatility. At 84 or 85 he won't be with us too much longer. He is still amazing. And I've been a fan of Stockard Channing since her 1973 TV movie with Ed Asner "The Girl Most Likely to..." I don't know how to describe Ms. Channing appeal. I have simply always felt it. Especially loved her in "Grease".

As I said in the heading, this movie is not for everyone. But, I would bet that most elderly, intellectually inclined men would enjoy it. "The Vanity of Human Wishes". I love it. And I loved this movie. I would have rated it an 8, but I wanted to counter the low ratings of reviewers who didn't get it.

Angry Neighbors is one of the most clueless adaptations I've seen in a while, a desperate attempt to make a commercial feature out of something that was more think-piece oriented than plot driven.

In more skillful hands, it might have worked. But the screenplay, by yes, three writers spiraling in Rewrite City, couldn't figure anything that nuanced out. The result is to adapt a metaphorical source literally, close their eyes and just hope it makes sense.

It's one thing to have a talking dog as a projected narrative voice in a book, another to have the dog actually talk. Cheech Marin voice might eventually drive you to turn this off early. Thank him for that.

Angry neighbors does manage one achievement... it makes John Avildsen's butchery of Thomas Berger's Neighbors seem harmless by comparison.

This movie made me laugh a total of zero times. One of the worst movies I've ever seen. If you want to waste your time and be completely bored than by all means watch this movie.

P. S. There is nothing to spoil about this movie.

I literally wrote this review while I was watching the film because I was so bored.

The plot is stupid, the comedy is the worst, and I really don't get why anyone would give this film a good rating. I would rather watch paint dry.

Also, I really don't get the dog and the man's relationship and communication through the entire film. Just another aspect of the film that detracts from the already horrible plot and acting. If the dog wasn't in the movie there wouldn't even be a movie, because this film lacks that much content.
