The edgy comedy looks sharp enough, but lands like a rapier with a cork on it.

It has an interesting premise, but falls apart in the 2nd act. The 3rd act does redeem it somewhat.

Rated: 7/10

Keith & the Movies

If you plow down deep enough you’ll find what resembles a thematic core. But it’s buried under banter and antics that only seem there to get an R rating.

Rated: 2.5/5

Phoenix Film Festival

This modern-day dramedy, about an old-school idea, successfully balances humor and anxiety.

Rated: 3/4

The Duel leaves a bit to be desired in terms of its characters, mainly because its absurdist tendencies go overboard, but its satire is compelling enough to warrant a watch.

Rated: 7/10

This was really special. Sprouse is all grown up, and it's good to see he's picking cool projects. It was almost perfect for me, just a little slow in the middle.

An amazing and surprising film that, had it featured A-List actors, would've broke records at the box office.
