They Came Together

I never heard of this movie before now and it's 2021 and I could kick myself because I've watched some real crap lately. When I was little Airplane was one of my favorite movies and someone compared it to They Came Together so I immediately set about watching it. Some jokes were subtle but really really funny and others were in your face but I enjoyed all of them.

I laughed at this movie. I laughed out loud. A lot. For the life of me, I can't figure out why. My wife is staring at me as if I'm the guy her mom said I was. I swear, every single moment of this movie is seconds away from becoming completely stupid. And yet, I keep cracking up as if it's the funniest thing I've ever seen.

WHY AM I RATING THIS SEVEN STARS? I'm so sorry.

It's not funny. I'm probably drunk, or maybe I'm deranged. I might have multiple personalities. THIS MOVIE IS STUPID. Don't waste your time.

HAHAHAHHA, a dead girl in the leaves.

Don't watch this. Totally sucks. Don't let the fact I've watched it twice make any difference.

Even with an incredible cast and a great subject this movie has no identity.

It is not outlandish enough to be considered a parody and not articulately written enough to be a satire.

Don't get me wrong, some jokes (few and far between) are very well written however the movie just failed in so many ways which is a disappointment because I really love the cast.

This movie is no where near A Might Wind (7.3 IMDb Rating)or Airplaine! (7.8 IMDb Rating) perfect examples of Satire and Parody respectively Don't believe any rating above a 5 because it's not

I love a good parody. This was definitely a parody. I can't say for sure if it was a good one. All of my favorite actors are in this movie. Every other scene, a new random actor pops in and pops back out. Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler are amazing, per usual. This is the first time I've seen Jason Mantzoukas play a character that wasn't clinically insane. All of the elements for greatness are there, and yet it's still only mediocre. I think if you go into it with your expectations low, you'll be pleasantly surprised. If you go in expecting greatness because of the cast list, you'll probably be a little disappointed. Still worth a watch.

Takes a lot of comedy risks & elaborate visual gags, like Mel Brooks & the Scary Movie franchise decided fo make a made-for-tv movie. The acting is taken seriously and even toned despite the hard to achieve "bad acting" done on purpose.
