This is not Memento-level stuff, nor Wes Anderson, nor Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, but if you have the appetite for nonlinear nonsensical weird stories, then I would agree with other viewers that the cast itself makes the strongest case for viewing this, and they do the characters justice - the character studies are wonderful and there's an Addams Family/chosen family vibe that at times strikes me as awkward/relatable and like maybe there is a family for everybody out there, somewhere. This writer is obviously inspired by greatness and not QUITE there yet, but...possibly en route.
So this movie had one very important thing going for it, and that was the interesting characters. Each one had their own unique story that you wanted to find out what happened to each of them. This fact carried me all the way to the end. Now, did the story make sense, hell no. In fact the story was outrageous and far-fetched. The movie went of tracks around the grocery store scene and never really got back on. Seeing Fox in lingerie was the high point of this movie. Enjoyable, but way too long. I will be honest in saying, IF you decided to skip this one you will not be missing out on much.
Love the actors, Andy G I'm a big fan of. Megan I'm not sure, can she even act? This whole film deserves 10 Rotten Tomatoes. Just a poorly written script going no where. Doesn't even make any sense. Not to me anyway... Waste of time....
Dumb story imo, with poorly read and unnecessary narration, dialog unnatural and pretentious... overall I'd skip this. It just bored me. Andy Garcia was great but played opposite Emory Cohen in an awful Sam Kinneson wig, and acting is definitely not Emory's thing. Oscar Isaac's silly role wasn't interesting or funny.
The movie trailer and poster is interesting, but the movie itself is really boring. I could compare it to when you hear a part of a song on Tiktok and you you like it, but then when you play the full song, you end up hating it. The movie is very long, it felt like an eternity to watch it until the end. I don't know what the director tried doing here, but it's a flop.
