Review of Baywatch (2017) by Ben T — 16 Nov 2017
Baywatch is not an awful film but it is a bad one. It's overlong, boring, poorly written, incredibly cheap looking and most of all unfunny. The gags are incredibly drawn and don't even illicit as much as a chuckle.
As a comedy it doesn't work, it also doesn't work as a dumb action movie. The action is generic and the cgi is absolutely dreadful and drags you out of every big spectacle sequence. However while Baywatch is dumb and really bad it's still really entertaining.
It's an easy watch that is fairly entertaining and while overlong isn't unwatchable. The thing that makes it so easy to watch is Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron's chemistry which keeps this film a float.
Again Baywatch is in no way a good movie but it's not awful and is fairly entertaining. C.
