The Happytime Murders | Moustache Trailer Reaction

I thought I was done with trailer reactions this week. But today the Red-Band trailer for The Happytime Murders hit the internet and it's side-splittingly funny! This does for muppets what Team America: World Police did for marionettes.

When a serial killer begins targeting the cast of an 80's TV show - The Happytime Gang - the brother of one of the victims becomes the prime suspect. Now, disgraced ex-cop turned Private Investigator Phil Philips (Bill Barretta) must team up with his former partner, Detective Connie Edwards (Melissa McCarthy) and out-manoeuvre both the Police and the FBI if he's going to catch his brother's killer.

The Happytime Murders is directed by Jim Henson's son Brian, and is the first movie produced by Henson Alternative. Described as a neo-noir puppet crime action comedy, the movie looks to be a hilarious take on the buddy cop/detective drama. It's very crude, rude and deals with some very adult themes in laugh-out-loud fashion. Don't forget to watch out for Henson's innovative use of Silly String. But despite all that, this is still a muppet movie, although you wouldn't want to show it to your kids!

This is one of those trailers that you have to see to believe. But if you like Team America: World Police, South Park, Family Guy or anything similar, you're likely to love this...we certainly did.

The Happytime Murders hits cinemas on 24/08/18.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning | Average Guy Movie Review

Two months after acquiring both halves of the cruciform key, Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is ready to put an end to the Entity, once and for all. However, in that time the rogue A.I. has increased its stranglehold on cyber space and the planet. Spreading lies and misinformation, the people of the world are divided more than ever, and governments are on high alert. All of which should make it rather difficult, maybe even impossible for Ethan and his team to find a sunken Russian submarine and, use whatever they find there to kill the artificial intelligence that's slowly taking control of the world's nuclear arsenals. It is entirely possible that Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning could be the most anxiety inducing instalment of the franchise - the second half, anyway. Once again, Tom Cruise puts himself through the absolutely ludicrous in the name of entertainment... and a possible adrenaline addiction. Every scenario in which Ethan and the gang find themselves seems to be d...

Jason Bourne: Spoiler Review

I don't usually write spoiler filled reviews because I don't see the point. But considering my not so positive review of Jason Bourne, one of the most highly anticipated movies of Summer 2016, I thought it might be worth trying to explain why I reached the verdict I did. If you haven't seen this movie stop reading because there are spoilers ahead. Click here to see the spoiler free review. The movie begins with Bourne in Greece. He's laying low, making money by competing in underground fights and still struggling with his past. He lacks purpose which is making him miserable. Nicky Parsons on the other hand is busy hacking the CIA in order to expose their black ops programs. So far so good. But when Nicky finds something out about Jason's (or should I say David's) past, she heads to Greece to find him. Unfortunately her activities have drawn the attention of CIA Agent Heather Lee (Alicia Vikander), a cyber ops specialist who begins to track her. Using a ...

4DX – Is it worth it or just a gimmick?

Having watched the promo video what do you think? This week I saw Ghostbusters in 4DX and it definitely made the movie more of a ride. In fact 4DX feels like it was designed to appeal to the roller coaster crowd but will you miss the experience when watching the same movies at home? When I saw Ghostbusters for the second time I decided to view it in 4DX because I wanted to know what the "environmental effects" did for the movie going experience. If you want to know what I thought of Ghostbusters check out my Average Guy Movie Review . In my honest opinion; right now 4DX is more of a gimmick than an experience. The movement, air bursts, smoke and spraying water were more of a distraction than anything else, all of which felt out of sink with the movie. The effects like the strobe lights went off a split second before whatever they were supposed to augment happened. For example; during a subway scene, the Ghostbusters find a ghost in the tunnel who had been executed u...
