Slice

Hands down the worst movie I've seen in 2018. It honestly fails on every front . Dialogue, acting, mystery , jokes , pacing and plot are completely terrible and fall flat in almost every moment ... well , except for when Paul Sheer goes way over board on the line that heads this review . But that took an hour and 19 minutes to get to. Things as simple as plot twists and the "who done its" are literally shown to you multiple times before there reveals making the entire thing pointless. The main joke of the entire thing is never funny and has been done better in low budget indie films from the early 2000s . I haven't turned off a movie in some time , but this one almost got me there. The only thing keeping me from giving it a 1 is its quality lighting and camera work. Theres nothing more odd or upsetting than a terrible movie that looks good . It's like a trick on the senses. Pass on this and save yourself the boredom .

I'm a fan of the occasional schlocky B-movie, provided it's fun/funny, doesn't matter if it's intentional or unintentional. I knew this movie wasn't gonna be scary, but I did expect to get some laughs out of it, which I unfortunately didn't. It's a mercifully short movie at 82 mins, and yet it felt longer than its runtime.

The cast had some promising names, most of whom were wasted. Zazie Beetz is technically the lead in the movie, but she was criminally under-utilized. Hannibal Buress and the Stranger Things guy barely appeared in the movie. Chris Parnell tried a little. Chance cannot act at all. However, Paul Scheer gave the best performance in the movie, wish the movie had more of him.

I did like the setting of the movie though. A small town with humans coexisting with ghosts as an actual, official part of its population, people going around driving cars and wearing clothes from the 80s but using some technology (like laptops) from the present. It's a shame though, they could've done more with this setting and made a genuinely exciting and fun movie.

Paul Scheer's performance and the movie's setting were mostly the only things I enjoyed about the movie, and they're the reason I'm even giving it a 4/10.

This is a comedy horror somewhat in the same vein as Buffy or Ghosted but on a much lower budget. The plot is concerned with a series of murders of pizza delivery drivers, a rogue werewolf and a coven of witches. What will draw people to this movie is the cast, which includes quite a few talented actors. However overall this is a disappointing movie experience. The main issues are that this is simply not a well made movie, it doesn't hold your attention and despite some of the talent involved, they simply cant turn this into a satisfying experience as the script and production are so poor. I don't have an issue with low budget movies, just low budget movies which fail to entertain. Many of the flaws with the movie could have been forgiven if it was actually funny, but the comedy attempts fall flat. If you fancy some pizza delivery comedy try Fat Pizza instead which was also low budget but has a much healthier topping of full fat comedy.

The movie started strong with good music and cinematography and jokes that were funny and explained the world they live pretty well, chance acting was just bad and feel the movie could have been better. The last half really felt like a B horror movie and loses fuel in the comedy which is kinda expected. Don't go into this thinking it's an instant classic. But 100% worth a watch if you like B horror comedies

Slice (2018) is a movie that I finally watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a town that recently had a pizza boy brutally murdered. As the police, town and pizza shop uncover clues on who the murderer is it becomes apparent the pizza shop may be haunted and there may be werewolves in town.

This movie is written and directed by Austin Vesely in hit directorial debut and stars Zazie Beetz (Joker), Chance the Rapper (Space Jam: A New Legacy), Rae Gray (Fear the Walking Dead), Joe Kerry (Stranger Things) and Y'lan Noel (Insecure).

There is so much to like about this movie...and somehow it still ends up being not good. The animation during the opening credits was cool. The first kill and throat slash was worthwhile. It was cool seeing Joe Kerry from Stranger Things in this. The settings and attire are well done as is the lighting and cinematography. Unfortunately after the first kill there really aren't any more good kill scenes. The makeup and "monsters" look cheesy and the script is painful at times. The ending was okay and the use of CGI did not work for me.

Overall, this is a movie that tries to be more stylish than good. I would score this a 4.5/10 and only recommend watching it if nothing better is available.
