Stumbled upon this lastnight and pressed play as soon as I saw that the boys were back. The best thing about the latest from the lonely island is that it doesn't overstay its welcome and gives the fans exactly what they want, good songs that will get stuck in your head and quick one liners that you and your friends can resight and laugh at. Its light, its rude and it's exactly what we expect from these guys. 9/10

Bad Times at the El Royale
(2018)
Definitely was hoping for better..but not all bad times
31 October 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Well first and foremost I didnt think this movie was all that bad. the characters and vibe of the movie mixed with the music made it feel like a poor mans Tarantino film. It felt like it was gonna play out as a who done it, or clue typa movie, but unfortunately that wasn't the case at all which is really unfortunate considering how the first half of the movie went down.
My problem with this movie was the fact that nothing really seemed to matter about the characters after the second half of the movie. Its almost like they had this great idea for a movie and then about 100 pages into the script they had no idea where to go next and they just decided to add a good looking guy (chris helmsworth) with no shirt on and just hope that his sexiness will carry the movie the rest of the way...well that didnt work at all...not even close I was so bored by the second half that I started picking the movie apart....
Who was having sex on that film reel
And they kept talking about the management. Why didn't they go in that direction and further the story that way? They could've had the whole helmsworth narrative end in 20 minutes and finish the movie strong that way.
Anyway...not all that bad but cant recommend it 5 out of 10 stars
