ChuckFlixs: Murder Mystery By Chuck VanHooseJune 24, 2019It has been far to long since I have posted a ChuckFlixs. It has already been a busy summer. I’m a Youth Minister and I just got back from our serve week. One of the newest Netflix originals titled Murder Mystery.
The movie was actually doing well on Netflix because they actually released numbers for this movie. Which they never release numbers unless something does well. It was reported that it was watched 30 million times in the first 3 days with the majority of viewership coming from overseas.
The film stars Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. They played a married couple who takes a European vaccination to reignite a spark in their marriage. They meet a billionaire who invites them to a party on a yacht. The lights go out and come back to on revealing a dead body. Adam Sandler plays a cop and he is trying to solve the case and prove that they are innocent.
Positives
The movie was just an okay movie. It’s definitely better than some of his movies from the past couple of years. It’s a movie that you can just turn your brain off and watch. My favorite character is a character who is reference to Chubs from Happy Gilmore.
Middle of the road
The acting was decent but it wasn’t great and it wasn’t that bad. You can tell they had fun trying to film this movie but I don’t think any tried to hard. The movie had a few funny moments. But it’s definitely not the best comedy of the year.
Negatives
The movie is predictable which isn’t good for a murder mystery. But it’s also a comedy murder mystery that makes fun other movies in this genre. Not all of the jokes worked in this movie.
Adam Sandler has a porn/ bad cop mustache and it was hard to take him serious.
It’s just a movie where you can turn your brain off and have an okay time. I’ll probably forget about this movie by the end of the year.
Rating: 5.5/10
