Key and Peele have major success in comics and comedy sketches, they might just be the best comedians in recent times. After several seasons of excellence, their transition to the big screen does have the same gravitas but the humor might feel imbalances at times and it tends to dive into predictable escapade. Still, the charm and spark from their skits are still pronounced.
Strangely enough, this is a movie about a kitten, perhaps the most wanted feline in criminal world. Two ordinary guys get caught up in shady dealings trying to win back this cute kitten. It all boils down to identity switch, parody of gangster antics and eventually slow mo shootout with George Michael serenading audience and on screen characters between the sequences.
It may look odd enough at certain parts, and their signature may carry the majority of the movie, but the pacing is uneven. It struts too long on certain aspects, which also become too familiar to old action comedy shtick. Fortunately, the movie's verbal gags are more approachable than its slapstick moments and it's arguably where Key and Peele really shine.
Keanu, ironically like Keanu Reeves, may not deliver hits every time, but when it does, it's pretty enjoyable and a decent foray from skit to full fledged movie for the duo.
