When a hopeful, naive college freshman, Devon, asks the cool and confident Celeste to be her roommate, a blossoming friendship spirals into a war of passive aggression.

This is one of those almost films. It has everything mostly going for it and then just falls short. It’s Slightly Silly but stayed entertaining and really Manages to make you care about the characters. Then the third act happens and it’s like they just want to end the film. As after that no subtlety. Just straightforward hostility.

The third act the film falls apart. As feels like it goes for the easy out. instead of doing something original and different. It goes safe and just settles to villainize certain characters.

I know looking for some kind of realism or three dimensional characters in an Adam Sandler, HAPPY MADISON production is a lot to ask but it could amhave been something new or different.

As with This film anytime it approach’s depth, It runs far and wide away from it.

Some will look at this as a vanity project for Adam Sandler’s daughter Sadie Sandler and they would be correct, but she holds her own surrounded by other talents. Not to mention this film is better then the original comedies he has been offering lately. At least this is better then YOU ARE SO NOT INVITED TO MY BAH MITZVAH.

Chloe East impresses, as far as showing range and being totally different then the last performance I remember her from HERETIC. She again defintely makes her presence felt. As the antagonist.

This can be seen as its own kind of relationship comedy. Only Without some homoerotica, yet never leaning heavily on it. Happy to see a fun female centered comedy that is mostly successful.

Director Chandler Levack does the best she can. As her original movies such as I LIKE MOVIES are much more character-driven. Especially as far as the action goes, but are as breezy and caring. Here working from a script that is not her own. She manages to still bring her style and skill. Showing range and that she is a director who can rise to the occasion.

High college students face an unexpectedly epic journey when they must navigate two flights of stairs to retrieve their pizza delivery, turning a simple task into a surreal adventure.

This is pretty much a stoner movie so it will make some kind of sense at least as far as the premise but for the most part, it’ll just be silly off the wall and gonzo.

That would really makes me wonder is when the writer directors of this movie Nick Kochner & Brian McElhaney who form the comedy duo BriTANick, when they are writing this movie are they quite under the influence to make the material work. As if they are when they’re sober how do they make it seem plausible or make sense oh, that’s just a thought.

I’m happy to see so many child actors I remember growing up and working in this film as it is off the wall and occasionally funny, but it just doesn’t reach the height of hilarity for me even with all of its juvenile humor, some of which might be offensive it just came across as cute not necessarily anything daring. So that even with the cursing and as offensive, it might be minorly it still feels like a teen film maybe a little bit harder edged and surprisingly almost sexist.

The film isn’t totally stupid. It’s just silly. It does have kind of a surprisingly smart and glorious bastards signed up as well as a Meta element that wasn’t expected. It doesn’t completely work, but for the most part does.

It’s a perfectly fine time waster. As I can’t

See remembering much afterwards. As you pretty much get what you might expect with a few surprises.

Wouldn’t mind seeing more of these comedies that at least try for something different and new and has sparks of originality rather than the plane comedies that are supposed to be raunchy and energetic and that just feel way too familiar
