No Clue

I discovered Brent Butt's Corner Gas, Hiccups, and Corner Gas Animated just this year. Being in Texas, there's not a lot of Canadian programming that comes my way. No Clue is a fresh and funny take on the film noir genre. The "detective" isn't necessarily bumbling, he's just out of his depth / element. While I don't need my entertainment to be squeaky clean, it is refreshing to find something that makes me laugh without having to be offensive.

This film is soo Cheesy! But it was soo much fun. No bad language, no sex, nudity, or gore. No woke agenda. Just a funny movie. There should be tons more like this. 😃

Decent light fare. Good performances, a plot that holds together.

I didn't recognize the name Brent Butt but was interested in seeing Amy Smart. Now, I wasn't watching the movie so much as I was listening to it and I soon realized that the main character's voice was familiar - I looked up and it was that guy from Corner Gas - Brent Butt. After three seasons of that sitcom I grew weary of the repetition but this was a much better vehicle for Butt's often self-deprecating humor, though I suppose if the movie had gone on much longer it may have become tiresome as well.

The story is, to a degree, predictable but there are enough twists and turns to keep it interesting. The acting is overall good and it of course has that Canadian wholesomeness that doesn't offend. By that I mean there was no going out of the way to ingratiate themselves to special interest groups, or the vulgar.

In the end it's solid movie with flashes of brilliance as well as banality but ultimately landing in the "fun for the whole family" category.

I gave this film an 8 for no other reason than I smiled the entire way through, it was certainly not brilliant like an 8 should be but it was light hearted farce that I enjoyed more than most films I have seen recently.

The plot starts as basic film noir,femme fatale arrives at private dick's office in crisis, only problem is it is the office next door and the guy is a nerdy novelty sales man Very well written and never taking itself seriously, poking fun at the genre with horrible self narrations and bizarre interactions it reminded of movies like Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, The Man Who Knew Too Little and The Man With One Red Shoe.

Best yet were no car chases in a modern detective film! People that gave this flick poor marks simply have no sense of humor! I'll watch it again!
