Handsome: A Netflix Mystery Movie

I love Jeff Garlin. He's a great comedian and he was great on Curb. But, I have to wonder where his mind was while writing this script. The movie is totally flat, lacks an interesting story line, and has no opportunities for even a slight chuckle. Not to mention it's boring enough to make 81 minutes feel like 3 hours. I'm sorry, I really wanted this to be good. And I really want good comedians like Jeff to be successful when they branch out and attempt to make movies. But this one is miserable.

3/15/18. Did finish watching the whole movie. Wouldn't say it was quality viewing. Story only average, as was the acting. If you have nothing better to do...

Still kinda sat here thinking what was that? Kind of confused as to what the desire behind this production was. Wouldn't say it was terrible, wouldn't say it was good. Just felt that it was a hodge-podge of ideas that didn't have any real direction.

I enjoyed Jeff Garmin, fi d him a likeable character actor, not sure he can carry off stuff as the focal point.

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

This pathetic Netflix original makes me wonder if they're running low on product.

"Handsome" is a murder mystery starring Jeff Garlin (who also co-wrote and directed). It concerns the murder of a neighbor's babysitter. The murderer tells you who he is before the actual story starts - don't ask.

This film tried to be wacky and funny, but it wasn't. The characterizations and the dialogue went too far so that instead of wacky and offbeat, it came off as forced, as if someone sat down and said, what can I throw in here to make it seem wacky and offbeat. Unfortunately, that someone was not the Coen Brothers.

There were cameos by Joe Kenda of the ID Discovery Channel and Kelly Cuoco. As far as I'm concerned, Leah Remini also had a cameo, and it was less than Kenda and Cuoco had.

Some people on this board stopped watching. I was tempted but persevered to see just how bad it could get. Verdict: Pretty bad.
