Handsome: A Netflix Mystery Movie

I would think you either really hate this movie, or enjoy it. I would imagine there is little in between. I love Jeff Garlin. He is a raunchy free form, stand up comedian, and best known for playing Larry David's manager on HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm. This role is a slight variation of that persona. He is a bit of a loner and loser in this. Even the title is funny knowing Garlin is the star, and the Directory, writer etc. He plays a Detective on the hunt to uncover the murderer of his neighbor's babysitter. The characters are strong. The comedy is stupid, but that's the point. Not much of a mystery, at all. It is an enjoyable spoof.

Boring in the middle... Didn't get all the way to the ending...

I gave this one a chance, but I just could not watch it after 31 minutes and had to do a rare thing for me, turn it off.

Billed as a comedy, and for some it probably is funny, but I found it just bad.

I noted that Jeff Garlin wrote, directed and starred in it, well sorry Jeff, but your movie sucked.

I gave it 4 and I think that was generous.

What has happened to film making? Do the people who make movies ever look at what they produce? They can't think that what they make is good. Maybe they think people will go for anything. Back to the drawing board for a good comedy. Jeff Garlin and I have something in common,we like the Cubs and we can't act.

Eighty minutes of amusing comedy drama, don't expect major laughs and don't hope for any great depth, what you have here is just an easy to watch nice movie. It has an almost old fashioned vibe about it, which I liked.

Jeff Garlin is very good in the role, he's amusing and likeable. I wonder if they were eyeing up a series from this?

How gorgeous is that dog! 6/10.
