Review of The Happytime Murders (2018) by Manicure — 22 Nov 2020
"The Happytime Murders" is not as awful as everyone claims. Its concept and structure reminded me of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" but in a completely different mood. Surely it had the potential to be something more than the brainless and raunchy summer movie it is, but it managed to keep me entertained for 90 minutes just fine.
A lot of jokes fall tremendously flat, but it definitely has its moments especially in the first half. Melissa McCarthy snorting sugar and getting high was enough to make me happy, but some wittier humor would have made the difference here.
