Dicks: The Musical

I don't normally like musicals, but this was so fun to watch. If you come into this looking too deep, it'll ruin it. Expect absurdity. It's so over the top, but it has become an instant favorite for me. I feel like this movie requires a bit of appreciation for the eccentric. I don't feel like there was ever a moment where I could anticipate what they were going to say or do next, but each scene was cleverly executed. Like I said, don't approach this with any seriousness, and if you can appreciate queer culture and raunchiness then you're in for a lot of fun. I can't believe this story was ever created, but I'm not mad haha.

This movie was pretty damn great, the story was admitedly not very original but still very fun, the comedy was great' one of the funniest movies i have watched in a long time, and the songs while not all good are really enjoyable, also the performances are great with nathan lane stealing the show, my only problem is kind of a me problem, but i feel like there are times when the movie tries to use too much shock humor and those jokes just dont leave a very good impression for me, plus i would have loved it if the songs were longer but overall i really enjoyed this movie, so if you enjoy raunchy comedies i highly reccomend to watch this movie at least once

p.s: this movie is better to watch with a friend.

I told my partner, "This looks terrible. I'm pressing play." I am so glad I did. Sometimes you just need unhinged comedy in your life and that's exactly what I needed tonight. It's seriously the most ridiculous movie I've ever enjoyed. I kept laughing unexpectedly to the point of choking. It kept getting more and absurd with every passing moment and just when I thought it couldn't get more ludicrous, it found a way to take it to the next level.

Would I recommend this movie?

Not to most people, but if you're having a really bad day and you want something to take your mind off your problems and are willing to disregard any sense of decency, this might be the film for you. Worked for me.

'Dicks: The Musical' is a film based on an off Broadway play by Josh Sharp and Aaron Jackson. Here, the story tells of Craig (Sharp) and Trevor (Jackson) who meet at work and realize they are identical twins. After they make sense of the situation, they realize that their parents separated right after they were born and each took a child to raise on their own (If you hadn't guessed, the film borrows a lot of its earlier storyline from 'The Parent Trap' film). This then prompts the twins to come up with a plan to get their parents back together so they can be one big happy family. The problem is that their father is now gay, their mother is agoraphobic, oh and more importantly, their father has two sewer monsters captive, and their mother has no vagina (Yes, you heard that right!). To top it off, the film is also a musical.

This film is hilarious and so random. I laughed out loud several times and clutched my metaphorical pearls even more. Its a very unexpected, offensive and controversial film, but i really enjoyed it.

Sharp and Jackson are great as Craig and Trevor, and you can tell that they've worked together as a comedy duo for some time now. They are able to bounce off each other quite well. Megan Thee Stallion plays their boss Gloria, however whilst she may be a current power player in the music industry, she isn't going to be winning any acting awards any time soon.

Whilst the leads are very funny, Nathan Lane and Megan Mullally are absolute scene stealers as their parents Harris and Evelyn. The chemistry between them is great, and every scene they share looked extremely fun for them to be a part of. Lane is brilliant and flamboyant as usual, but it was Mullally who really surprised me. I had no idea she was so talented. She's always been a great character actor, but her voice is also incredible, and to be able to sing with a strong lisp too shows how much of a talent she really is.

The songs are funny too and make sense storyline wise. A lot of the songs are the type I would listen to again and again (and since watching, have). The best song is 'Lonely' by Mullally and Lane, followed closely by 'Out Alpha the Alpha' by Megan Thee Stallion. 'All Love is Love' gets an honorable mention, and whilst its catchy, it's probably one of the most offensive songs I've ever heard.

The costuming is another highlight, capturing the essence of each character and showing how eccentric they are. Set design is another strength too, especially the scenes in the sewer, and in Harris and Evelyn's homes.

The ending takes a wild turn, and it's certainly one that I did not expect, but given how random the film was overall, I adapted quickly.

During the credits, the audience gets to see behind the scenes footage of the cast during filming, and this made me like the film even more. Seeing Nathan Lane and Megan Mullally struggle to deliver such offensive and inappropriate lines given their age and reputation as actors/performers showed how professional they were and I liked that they were such good sports about it all. I also liked seeing original footage of Sharp and Jackson from the off Broadway play, because it showed how far the idea has come since then.

For a musical film that centers around incest, sewer boys and a detached yet flying vagina, I absolutely loved it!

If i could give this trash less then 1 star i would waste of time i can never get back unfunny i give it one star because bowen yang and megan thee stallion are in it otherwise horrendous. I kept wanting to leave but i kept staying to see if it would get any better but it never did i would not recommend this movie for anyone to see i work at a theater and have seen many movies in my lifetime but this is one of the absolute worst movies i ever watched i went into this movie thinking maybe it would be funny id give it a chance but it disappointed me on many levels i like larry charles but this is a miss.
