Most Likely to Murder

...honestly, it's neither. Really, there's not a funny joke in the movie. There's a lot of angst, a guy down on his luck, with honestly no redeeming qualities, the acting is lousy, the jokes aren't funny, and the mystery isn't the least bit intriguing. It left me feeling cheated, and I watched it for free. Avoid this at all costs.

I gave this a 7 because it is a cute movie that gave me consistent chuckles throughout and kept my attention. The protagonist is a guy you love to hate. It has a good cast of quirky characters that were well-played. The murder story line also had some good twists. Was it "I laughed so hard I cried" funny? No. But it is an amusing movie overall & worth a watch.

I randomly saw an ad for this movie on Instagram and liking Adam Pally (but not actually knowing his name) definitely wanted to check it out. He of course was hilarious as the down to earth and, to me, likeable Billy. Much of the supporting cast I was previously unfamiliar with, but thoroughly enjoyed. Everyone's performance definitely added to this quirky comedic take on a murder mystery. I sincerely recommend checking out this film.

Adam Pally stars here as Billy, who's returning to his hometown of Valley Stream, Long Island, after a number of years away for Thanksgiving and to pack his things, as his parents are selling the house and moving to Sante Fe. When he was in high school there he was extremely popular, but also a prankster and a bully, even known as the King of Valley Stream.

However, Billy soon finds out that his schtick of the past has worn thin and his friends have matured for the most part and moved on with their lives. The plot will mostly center on Billy's suspicions that he's seen his neighbor (Vincent Kartheiser), who's now dating Billy's ex-girlfriend (Rachel Bloom) ,commit a murder.

Although this movie received rather glowing reviews from pro critics, I really was hard pressed to find the humor here, and I wondered if we all watched the same film. To me, the humor just fell flat or was just mean-spirited or even cringe inducing at times.

All in all, maybe this is a demographic thing as others may have thought it was funny but I was happy when it finally ended.

I've never taken the time to review a movie before. But don't trust the low scores! It's a decent crime/comedy movie with good acting
