Everything from script to cast has all the elements of a good comedy. We aren't talking masterpiece by any stretch but at the very least a good family popcorn flick.

To say that the Farrelly brothers phoned this in would still be giving it too much credit. If there is anyone to blame, it's the Director for not coaching the actors to the finish line to get a good performance. IT COMES SO CLOSE!! Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, moves so stiffly. It's almost like the crew got confused and has the camera rolling during the rehearsal instead of the actual take.

This (lack of) effort amounts to what you could consider a really good student film.

Synopsis: Amy Coney Barret replaces Bill Murray in a wildly unfunny twist on Groundhog Day, discovering additional pieces to the puzzle around her with each reliving.

Inoperable feels like a well-funded student film. Unfortunately, as with many student films, the casting is bad, the acting is awkward, and the story is poorly developed. This is a classic case of style over substance; the only enjoyable part of the movie is some of the camera direction and attention to detail in the practical fx. Onnthe other hand, however, one of the biggest problems breaking your suspension of disbelief is the set design, it tried hard to be silent hill but looks more like the janitorial staff at Scrub' Sacred Heart quit the day of. Wardrobe also suffers from the same problem, likely being managed by the same production designer.

Sound is... Good. Nothing particular stands out as food or bad in the audio department.
