a review of

𝖍𝖔𝖔𝖕𝖙𝖔𝖇𝖊𝖗 𝖝 𝖓𝖎𝖌𝖍𝖙 𝖙𝖜𝖊𝖓𝖙𝖞-𝖋𝖎𝖛𝖊: I thought this was an enjoyably goofy buddy comedy, reminiscent of '90s Kevin Smith slacker-hangout movies, all the way down to featuring a somewhat self-indulgent cameo by the director (Sung Kang, of all people?) doing weird character bits for no particular reason. More than anything, it feels like the entire movie was built around showing off the fairly cool and original-looking monster makeups, which is also where the majority of the budget seems to have gone. There's a general unevenness of tone that makes the movie seem almost like a kiddie comedy at times, aside from the hard R-ness of literally everything else about it, which made it kind of a weird watch but I'm glad I stuck with it.
