Reviews

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
