Domino: Battle of the Bones

Love this film. Like a 90s throw back. Feel good and laugh out loud. Definitely recommend.

My partner an I went to check this out last night in Hollywood and it was everything I wanted plus more. What a great cast line up and the jokes were ON POINT. We are going again just because it was so funny! SNOOOOOOP!

Domino: Battle of the Bones should tell the viewer what they're in for with it's title alone. This movie is embarrasing to watch from start to finish. I can't believe Snoop Dogg and David Arquette attached themselves to this trainwreck of a movie. This is the directorial debut of former NBA superstar Baron Davis, which he also wrote, and starred in. The movie's script is corny to the core and it's hard to tell if it was meant that way or not. I wouldn't even classify this movie as one of those films that is so bad that's good. This coming from someone who enjoys playing Dominos! Domino: Battle of the Bones should have never seen the light of day, yet here we are. This film gets a low 2 stars out of 10.

Fun movie to see how diverse families communicate when emotions are strong over a game that's been around for centuries. Relatable movie as families are more blended/diverse than before.

All of the characters were cool, hilarious, and entertaining to watch. It definitely wasn't a movie to fall asleep to. Was nice to see how one of the characters navigates being around a family he hasn't gotten to know before and when it comes to being around elderly people in the kind of years (lately) that we've had, watching how he grew up through the movie was nice to see because there's a lot of kids that are going through the same thing.

Objectively, this is a poorly made movie. It's not put together very well. There are a bunch of things that don't make sense. A few times it seemed like they cut out certain scenes which would've allowed the next scene to make sense. Like, how did we get here? And there are a few cringe-y parts.

Subjectively, I found it pretty funny. I only laughed a moderate amount, but when I wasn't laughing I was still generally amused. I was never bored and it surprisingly made me care about the characters.

I enjoyed this movie. But it's not something I'd revisit. (1 viewing, 2/15/2022)
