Hell and Back (2015)
6/10
The cast saves the movie...honestly it is very bad
22 October 2019
I know I am giving this a 6 but it is a very poorly written, and directed film. It is one of those comedies that thinks throwing as much offensive material in as many directions as possible equals comedy gold. narrator: it does not. The plot, such as it is, is cobbled together ideas from a bunch of other better films and it is meandering. The film has nothing on its mind than to score cheap laughs. Yet for all that enough of the jokes land for the film to be enjoyable. The film also is quickly paced.

None of this is due to the script. The actors-how did they get such a good cast?-have such good timing and chemistry that much of the flaccid material ends up working on the sheer strength of their personalities. It also helps that the animation is crude in a way to make the film have a blue comedy vibe to it that works, in spite of the script.

I still think I am being overly kind but meh I had fun with this schlock.
